Description: 1945 second edition of a book published in Hawaii for American cooks to learn to cook Chinese recipes. It was created and published by the Chinese Committee of the International Institute and the YWCA in Honolulu. There are a wide range of recipes that use true Chinese ingredients and certainly appear completely authentically Chinese ( as opposed to what mainland Americans were calling recipes for Chinese Chop Suey, etc. at the time ). There is a chart in the book that identifies what these ingredients are and has the Chinese language spelling and names as well as the English spellings. Along with the recipes are many pages of local advertisements for businesses in Hawaii. Many Chinese restaurants and businesses are represented. This copy is in very good condition with sound binding, bright, clean and unmarked text. No owner name. No soil, no stains, no notation. No folds or tears. ** Covers have some typical wear, edge wear from long storage. ** 86 pages of recipes plus approximately 30 pages of advertisements. 6 1/4 x 9 1/2 inches. Hardcover. Ships with USPS media mail.
