Chinese Chefs Are
Versatile

Those who have tasted genuine
Chinese food usually like it. But II
is difficult to find in most American
cities. Really, there isn't mucn
difference between American and
Chinese food, except perhaps in the
way the thing is cooked or the sea-
soning used. Garlic, pepper. salt
celery and parsley are usually used
nv all celebrated cooks and chefs.
In addition to the seasoning, the
Chinese use soy bean sauce and
ginger in everything they cook.
The Chinese chefs are remarkable
for their skill in producing numerous
varieties of dishes by combining 1t
with less expensive meat or with
tastv vegetables. 1t is in the same
manner that they are able to evolve
two or more hundred different dishes
for one single dinner with little
or no effort. Perhaps the Chinese
chefs ability may be due to their
constant devotion to Tao Chun the
famous Chinese kitchen god. who
sits in his temple and by some
magic wand imparts his culinary art
to the chefs. Tao Chun, the famous
Chinese kitchen god Is generally
worshipped all over China twice a
month-at the time of the new
moon and the full moon. Tao
Chun's temple is a little niche in
the brick cooking range, and his
palace the smoky clouds. In America,
there isn't any Chinese food which
can be had for the mere paying.
Or. il there is, how can one be sure
that 1t Is not just Chop Suey?
A real Chinese dish have eaten
/ In the Orient-"Chi Yung" or Vel
vet Chicken, made of white meat
of chicken, pounded AMI pounded,
combined with some delicate vege'
table, is fit for king. AS is Chow
Chi PAN" made of thinly sliced
dark meat of chicken with mush'
rooms. Another Chinese dish relish
ed by the American and English
residents of the Orient Is Almond
Chicken, made of small bits OF
chicken detached from the bones,
mixed with the white meat of pork.
cubed water chestnuts, mushrooms
bamboo shoots and salted almonds
Another delectable Chinese dish 1s
soup made by cooking the chicken
bones with white winter cabbage.

Supper Time Is Gay Time
On Sunday Night

One OF the most delightful ways
OF entertaining is on Sunday night
for supper. AS a rule, dinner on
Sunday is served at noon-usually
heavy. Therefore. the supper meal
can be rather a makeshift meal,
using leftovers from dinner. It
can be most informal meal and
the menu should fit the occasion.
If men are present, specialize on
dishes which they will enjoy; while
IL there are only ladies, a dessert,
a few dainty sandwiches and a bev.
erage will be sufficient to satisfy
their appetites. Men like sand
wiches in quantity, not the small,
dainty ones, so it is best to plan
the menus accordingly.
