Rare Books
"Charming, droll, whimsical, amusing and elegantly written. An unusual (and early) book in English about Chinese food. The first nine chapters are musings on Chinese foods and dining habits. The 101 recipes (from Chapter 10 onwards) are littered with proverbs, observations and asides and interspersed with the author's illustrations and caricatures. The recipes are written longhand. Many are guidelines and lack measurements or quantities, but in most cases are useful to a sensible cook. There are useful chapters on ingredients including pricing and a glossary as well as guides on where to shop and eat (US locations in this edition, British locations in the UK edition). There are also many observations, astute or amusing, and sometimes both on Chinese gastronomy and culture"--From bookseller's description (Books for Cooks.)
