Chinese Worcestershire sauce; it is imported
by the barrel. and little is used to flavor near
" all Of the made dishes Horseradish is also
used freely the Chinaman being nearly as de-
voted to boiled beef and horseradish sauce as
his English cousin.
Noodles, served as part Of several dishes, are
purchased at the noodle factory or at Chinese
shops, and are always fried in peanut OIL One
quart of oil will fry a quarter Of pound at
once; it takes only minute or two to fry them
crisp, and then they are set aside to drain
until the rest of the dish is ready. In cooking
rice two ways are employed. One IS to drop
the rice, after careful washing, little by little
INTO boiling water, boil fifteen minutes, then set
back to dry out until needed. The other IS to
add cupful of well-washed rice to ore and
quarter cupfuls of cold water, boil twenty min
utes, then set back to dry off.
Lotus-seed broth is a luxury not always to
be had in America. Tulip bulb salad is made
by pairing and slicng the bulbs, adding little
chopped Pax choi Chinese cabbage), juice OF
an onion, a teaspoonful Of sugar and a little
oil and vinegar.
The most expensive Chinese soup is the
birds nest soup. The nests are made by sea
bird in Southern China from delicate sea
moss and n gelatnous substance the bird ex-
pectorates, much as the bee makes the comb
for honey Then the bird fastens the nest to
almost inaccessible cliffs, where it is so hard
to get it that the labor adds to its cost. The
nests come here dried, and require forty-eight
hours Of soaking before they can be cooked.
They cost from one dollar to a dollar and
half apiece. A half Of one is usually added
to plate Of clear soup for extra occasions.
The Chinese are very partial to sea food and
use it freely. They also eat sweet and sour
pickles one or more times day. Their sweets
consist of the various small cakes, much like
our own cookies, in which rice -four, nuts and
tiny havoring seeds are used. Sugared and
preserved fruits, sailed and sweet seeds,
parched peas. nuts and fresh fruits are all
favorite delicaces. Pastry sweets are almost
unknown in China.
The following recipes are authentic, fur
nished by Chinese cooks, and are quite possible
for the American cook to use, provided she
follows them carefully using all of the In
gradients called for. These may be bought at
any Chinese grocery or market
They are not given with an idea Of order
for serving, for in all probability each one
would appear only as an experimental odd DISH

one or more Of the made dishes served with
plain boiled rice, tea and sweets, would make
an entire Chinese dinner. Chinese names are
