PREFACE
Chinese cooking in recent years has become very popular in America, and certain
Japanese dishes are also in high favor. The restaurants are no longer merely the
resort of curious idlers, intent upon studying types peculiar to Chinatown, for
the Chinese restaurants have pushed their way out of Chinatown and are now found
in all parts of the large cities of America. In New York they rub elbows with
and challenge competition with the finest eating palaces. Their patronage to-day
is of the very best, and many of their dishes are justly famous.
There is no reason why these same dishes should not be cooked and served in any
American home. When it is known how simple and clean are the ingredients used to
make up these Oriental dishes, the Westerner will cease to feel that natural
repugnance which assails one when about to taste a strange dish of a new and
strange land.
