- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon crushed red chili flakes

Instructions
- Whisk together the soy sauce, sesame and canola oils, black and white sesame seeds, lime juice, ginger, garlic, brown sugar, red chili flakes, cilantro, and scallions in a small bowl.
- Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add the card and bok choy, cooking until just wilted but still bright in color, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain.
- Just before serving, pour the dressing over the greens, and toss lightly. Serve immediately. The greens may be cooked, rinsed immediately in ice-cold water and refrigerated for up to 2 days before serving. When ready to serve, heat the greens for 2 minutes in a microwave, or heat in a large saute pan in 1/8 cup of water or 1 tablespoon of canola oil. Add dressing to heated greens and serve.
