There are many names in English. You should include the scientific name because of all the synonyms

Peer comment(s):

agree Mario Freitas : I think Aji crystal is more like it. Of course, Muriel. I just judged by the appearance, that's all.

Thanks, Mario. It's hard to tell with so many possibilities. As you know, my training in botany has taught me to always include the scientific name, no matter what the circumstances.
agree Tracy Miyake : +1 on including the scientific name!!! especially with food varieties that have multiple common names

Thanks, Tracy. That makes us soul mates. I meant to say 'scientific name' in my comment to Mario (just now corrected it).
