1. Bamboo shoots - 竹笋 - zhú sǔn
2. Bitter Melon - 苦瓜 - kǔ guā
3. Bok Choy - 小青菜 - xiǎo qīng cài
4. Chinese Broccoli - 空心菜 - kōng xīn cài
5. Chinese Celery - 芹菜 - qín cài
6. Chinese Dried Mushrooms - 香菇 - xiāng gū
7. Chinese Eggplant - 茄子 - qié zi
8. Silk Squash - 丝瓜 - sī guā
9. Chinese White Radish - 白萝卜 - bái luó bo
Nessquick:
celery and others, are not only chinese, and wtf is "silk square" ?
Why can't you say their names? It would appear from your question that you're Chinese. If you don't know what they are, just ask the guy/gal selling them.
When you go to the store ask ZHege Shenme ya? And have them tell you directly what it is it works everytime......
just find the English name and stick 'Chinese' in front of it.
