  • Homegrown Chinese Vegetables for the Houston Area Emily Chen Dunbar
    Homegrown Chinese Vegetables for the Houston Area Emily Chen Dunbar I love vegetables. As a child growing up in the countryside of Taiwan, I watched the rice farmers and their water buffaloes plow the fields. My brothers and I loved to chase each other up the narrow paths between the rice patties. After the farmer harvested the rice, the field became our playground. We would pick up pieces of dried clay and shape them into small square pieces to build an oven. We collected and burned dry hay to heat up the oven until the clay became red. While it heated, we would swipe some sweet potatoes from a nearby field and put them into the oven. After stomping down on the clay roof, the hot clay buried the potatoes and cooked them. After one hour we eager kids went back for the most delicious, baked sweet potatoes known to mankind. Even now, the sweet, earthy, hot flavors remain in my mind. I realized how much that I enjoyed eating and cooking on the day my husband pointed out that I scheduled my daily activities around shopping and cooking. Many Chinese people have this same trait. A typical meal for a Chinese housewife includes steamed rice with 3 dishes and a soup. One of the dishes would always be a stir-fried, green-leaf vegetable; another might be shredded meat with some kind of vegetable. Most soups also included vegetables. For Chinese people, vegetables are the major food source. I have grown Chinese vegetables in Houston for many years. I also often trade vegetables with my Chinese friends.
