     وأمّا الغَوشَنة فهي قريبة من الكمأة باردة رطبة وهي أقلّ بردًا وأصلح، وفيها بورقية وملوحة تفارقها عند السلق ويصلحها السلق. وليس له من الغلظ واللزوجة ورداءة الخلط ما الكمأة وهي تؤكل بالحموضات ولَذَّته كلَذَّة الغضاريف.

     In what bespeaks the morel, it is near truffles, cold and wet, and in it less cold and more healthy, and it has a basicity and acidity that parts it on seething, so seething betters it. And it hasn’t the coarseness and stickiness and badness for the humour which a truffle has and it is eaten with sour things and its sensory delectability is like the sensory delectability of cartilage.

From Classical Syriac ܣܠܩܐ (silqā, selqā), from Aramaic סילקא, ultimately from Ancient Greek σικελικόν (sikelikón, literally “the Sicilian one”); cognate with Neo-Babylonian 𒌑𒋛𒅋𒋡 (/⁠silqu⁠/) itself a loan word from Aramaic, also a doublet of شَلْجَم (šaljam) through an Iranian loan.
