I saw something similar, but it was called something else. It was listed as yu choy on the receipt. I never heard of that, so I googled. The name is Cantonese (the Mandarin is you cai) for "oil cabbage" or "oil vegetable", and it is Brassica napus, the same species as canola. I previously called that species {koblnrapa}, but because the rape and the neep are respectively B. napus and B. rapa, I think that that word could cause confusion and should be replaced with {rasykobli}. That leaves the question of what to call the turnip. {gejykobli} is a possibility, but it could also be applied to the rutabaga and the kohlrabi. Or it could be a non-specific term for any brassicaceous root vegetable. {turnipe} is another possibility.
