| 毛利瓜 猜想 Explanation: 猜想你说的是zucchini/courgette 前者是意大利语名字,后者是法语名字,但两者都在用。 看来你一定不自己买菜做饭（^-^) Reference: http://www.ieproduce.com/Products.asp?Keyword=courgette Reference: http://www.foodtown.co.nz/HomeShopping/product.asp?pageType=... |

On a Maori Glossary website it is listed as a marrow or squash. It looks like a fat short courgette with pronouced ribs and it tastes quite like a courgette also. Some I have grown are fat and round like a melon or baby pumpkin and others are more cylindrical like they're supposed to be." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs 4 mins (2005-12-07 05:10:38 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- nice picture here...: http://64.233.187.104/search?q=cache:hDqMzg5MJHYJ:www.vegeta... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs 7 mins (2005-12-07 05:13:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- scientific name here - Curcurbita pepo: http://64.233.187.104/search?q=cache:e-K5DJYWQcMJ:www.koanga... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs 11 mins (2005-12-07 05:17:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Oh dear, there are many kinds of Cucurbita pepo, kamokamo is only one of them: "KAMOKAMO RUATORIA (Cucurbita pepo) NZ These seeds were gifted to us by a Koro in Ruatoria who's been saving the seeds for many years - they are a mix of all his favourites - long ones and round ones. They are great eaten when young as zucchini along with the male flowers and tendrils - or later when baked or in the hangi. Kamo kamo are vigorous vines so they need somewhere to travel; they love fences! " -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs 17 mins (2005-12-07 05:23:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Genus Cucurbita: Cucurbita pepo from which the vegetable marrow is derived also produces cultivars that are commonly known as summer squash, winter squash, pumpkins and ornamental gourds. It is considered to be of American origin, possibly Mexico. It would appear that C. pepo is more tolerant of cool climates than other members of the genus" (Langer, R.H.M.and Hill, G.D.,"Agricultural Plants", Cambridge University Press, 1982) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs 24 mins (2005-12-07 05:30:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- -> a variety of 西葫芦 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs 29 mins (2005-12-07 05:35:35 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- well, I guess 毛利瓜 is the Chinese name in NZ for kamokamo?? - a kind of squash or marrow. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 hrs 32 mins (2005-12-07 05:38:57 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 食物英文名- 文学城: 热点论坛web.wenxuecity.com - [ Translate this page ] ...
