What is the tagalog of horseradish?
malunggay is the tagalog of the horseradish,,,loureljohn@yahoo.com Not exactly. malunggay (or kalamungay in Bisayan) is the tagalog of 'horseradish tree' or 'drumstick tree' (scientific name Moringa oleifera), which is a tree that is primarily popular in the Philippines for its leaves. Real horseradish (Armoracia rusticana) is not a tree but a leafy perrenial plant similar to a radish or carrot.The root of the malunggay tree can have a similar taste to horseradish and has been used as a substitute for horseradish, but that can be extremely dangerous since malunggay root contains a neurotoxin.
