Had dinner with my cousin last night, and when he saw "sauteed pea greens" on the menu he asked if I knew what they were. It stopped me cold. I've been eating dou miao in Chinese restaurants for years - they're one of my favorite greens - but I hadn't paid attention to their slow creep out of Chinatown onto American menus. Suddenly I'm seeing them everywhere.
