AN ENGLISH & CHINESE COOKERY BOOK,

BY J. DYER BALL-

Containing 200 Recipes in English and Chinese,

EXTRACT FROM PREFACE:

to

The Compiler has prepared this work in consequence of several persons having spoken him of the great want of a Cookery Book, which could be placed in the hands of native cooks in foreign employ. It has been his endeavour to arrange the contents in such a systematic form as to ensure facility in use. It has not been without difficully that the phraseology as well as the terminology employed in foreign cookery has been rendered into the equivalents in Chinese, Flowing sonorous periods and a high classical style have not been the objects aimed at, but the rendering of the Recipes in such a clear and sintale style as to be readily understood by the average Chinese cook, who, though able, as a rule, to red and write, is not generally a highly educated individual. The foreign resident can thus order any Dish, by showing to his Cook the Chinese translation of the English Recipe, and get what he wants, provided the Cook closely. follows the instructions given."
