Thats pickled mustard stem or "zha tsoi" (i think thats the pinyin in cantonese). It a salty/spicy picked. At home, we have it on noodle with pork.

Echo.

Use it as a condiment. It is very salty (and this version looks spicy). It can also be used in cooking, though sparingly, and as a subsititute for added salt.

I should emphasize the word: *sparingly.*

Thx for the help guys. Dunno if I am going to try it yet. Might be good shaved on a salad or noodles. Just not to keen on buying food out of spackle buckets.

You might also find them packed in vacuum-sealed foil or plastic, pre-sliced. It's also available without the chili. I, too, am squeamish about wet food in buckets at Chinese markets, so I always buy these in the packages.
