题目: garden discoveries

discovered this veggie this weekend,thanks to some japanese friends:

Chinese spinach = hiyu = hon-toi-moi = yin choy = een choy = amaranth = hsien tsai

Notes: This is similar to spinach, only it's prettier, tastier, and more nutritious.tastes maybe a litle like asparagus.Look for it in Asian markets.
