[Barretts Mail]

From 雪菜 (snow vegetable). Based on http://www.tokyofoundation.org/en/topics/japanese-traditional-foods/vol.-7-yukina <http://www.tokyofoundation.org/en/topics/japanese-traditional-foods/vol.-7-yukina>, it appears there are multiple vegetables in Japan that go under the name “yukina.” The article also says that yukina is known in Japan by the early nineteenth century.

One variation that comes up on Google is “yukina savoy”:
