It is especially popular in China, where it is the most common form of lettuce, and is called &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;wosun&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; ({{zh-cp|c=[[wiktionary:莴|莴]][[wiktionary:笋|笋]]|p=wōsŭn}}) or &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;woju&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; ({{zh-cp|c=[[wiktionary:莴|莴]][[wiktionary:苣|苣]]|p=wōjù}}) (although the latter name may also be used to mean lettuce in general).<br /> <br /> The stem is usually harvested at a length of around 15-20 [[centimetre|cm]] and a diameter of around 3-4 cm. It is crisp, moist, and mildly flavored, and typically prepared by slicing and then [[stir frying]] with more strongly flavored ingredients.<br /> <br /> == External links ==<br /> <br /> * [http://www.nre.vic.gov.au/trade/asiaveg/thes-08.htm ACCESS TO ASIAN VEGETABLE$ (photo and multilingual synonyms)]<br /> * [http://www.foodsdatabase.com/LinkedLabel.aspx?FoodId=22861 Nutrition facts] <br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Stem vegetables]]</div>
