The reason I'm reading yotsubato is because it gets recommended often as an easy to read Japanese manga for jp learners, and so far it's appropriate for my level in chinese as I am probably no better than you.

>ごまは中国を経由して日本に伝わった植物で、漢語の「胡麻」を音読みしたものが「ごま」である。
>中国では西城の諸国を「」といい、「胡瓜(きゅうり)」「胡椒(こしょう)」「胡桃(くるみ)」と同じく、胡から持ち帰ったものには「胡」が冠される。
>ゴマの実は麻の実に似ていることから、胡から持ち帰った麻に似た植物ということで、「胡麻」と称されるようになった。
So all those things come from xicheng in beijing? I'm doubtful because it says 諸国, which would mean that this one district of beijing housed several countries which seems absurd to me-
When I look up 胡 in mdbg I get "non-Han people, esp. from central Asia" and in jisho "barbarian tribes surrounding ancient China", so does this mean sesame and cucumber comes from the barbarian tribes, any particular non-han ethnic group or specifically from xicheng district?
