Gosh. I was just on that site and the tab for it still opened! The pronunciation for the character is unexpected from Chao's phonetic description. But more interestingly, as a testament to the rarity of its usage, "" (found on Unihan using the pinyin) shows up as a tofu character on my Android phone---which is extremely ironic given that the font it uses is called NoTo (from **No To**fu). Still no luck with ⿰食㒼 on the site currently. I tried both phonetic look-up and by radical/stroke (食 + 9 or 10 strokes).

@KevinLi you should use character component lookup, not radical/stroke or phonetic look up (which is inefficient and extremely unreliable even among common characters) . http://www.guoxuedashi.com/zidian/z66595o.html

<p>I encountered two characters I cannot find in any database.

The website [zisea](http://zisea.com/) has a function called [两分](http://zisea.com/zslf.htm) where you can easily find these characters.

For the first one you just search 食㒼 as you put in your question:

For the second one you need to change 兌 to 兑 and search 兑皮:
