But knowing the description of a food you've never eaten before doesn't help much when trying to prepare it, and over 500 recipes in the book are catalogued right next to the ingredient entry.
For instance, the listing for Water Spinach includes an illustration of leaves and stem (both are edible), a description of each, where it's found (throughout Asia), and its name in nine Asian nations ranging from China (ong choy) to Vietnam (rau muong).
At this point, I feel very comfortable walking out of an Asian market with a plump bag of water spinach and a plan for its use.

I’ve had stinky tofu a couple of times, once as a condiment with a since forgotten dish and another time as an ingredient.
I requested the latter at my friend Stephen Hung’s restaurant, Super Wok, asking for garlic sauteed water spinach (空心菜 kōngxīncài Ipomoea aquatica) with stinky tofu.
He was incredulous, but picked up the ingredients and had Jack the chef whip up a batch for me. Then everybody watched to see me try to eat it.
