I'm going to China in a few months, and I would like to prepare for future trips to the supermarket by learning the names of some herbs and spices in Mandarin. I didn't include in this list the names of spices I already now. I doubt I would be using all the herbs and spices in the list during my stay there, but I might was well learn them.
