QUESTION:
Some vegetables are native to China and others have found their way into the cuisines after being brought from afar through the ages.

One such vegetable is thought to have originated in northern Asia, and both the Egyptians and the Romans have used it in garlands. It is often eaten raw and is a delightful addition to any salad.

What is this vegetable?

A. Garlic;
B. Celery;
C. Tomato;
D. Green tea with milk.

ANSWERS:
B is correct! In China, Chinese celery - kan-tsai or kun choy - is a popular flavoring in soups. It has been used as a digestive aid since ancient times. Chinese or Asian celery is smaller and more strongly flavored that its European cousin and is seldom eaten uncooked.
