PREFACE

This book is meant not only for the housewife but also for the restaurateur. In fact, it is written in such a clear, simple form that any one by following its rules can prepare dishes of rare delicacy and flavor.

This is my purpose in writing the book. I wish to make good, tempting, and wholesome cooking possible for all.

Shiu Wong Chan.
