How would you say: hearts of palms, bok choy and edame in Esperanto?
Thank you.

Thank you.
My 'new' Wells dictionary list bok choy as 'ĉina brasiko'. Wikipedia suggests 'palmokoro' for heart of palms. Presuming you meant 'Edamame', I'd suggest 'junaj sojfaboj' for ease of comprehension.

I think Edamame is just green beans right? Maybe you could say: verdaj faboj

They are certainly green in color, but they are defined as immature soy beans.
