With Chopsticks, Too—
Spices Fly As Chinese Cooks Get Dinner
Strange, spicy odors, the steam of boiling water, and conversations interspersed with Chinese prevailed in the Methodist church kitchen Tuesday night when three exchange students served a typical Chinese meal to about 60 church members.
Two of the students, Chow Chi Chien and Bong Soey Bow, beamed
happily when the meal was praised, but gave all the credit to Chung Chi Yeh, the chief cook. Mr. Yeh, who has been on the campus only a month, is a typical cook—the "add a bit of this and a bit of that" type. The fact that he had never cooked for more than eight people at once didn't bother him at all.
Still Room For The Rice?
The main dish, a rish concoction, included garlic, soy sauce, fruit juices, sugar, salt, pepper, eggs, ham and onions, and should not, the trio explained, be attempted by an amateur. Chopsticks were used in the kitchen to add small pieces of ham to steaming bowls of Chinese cabbage soup, but the guests preferred to use spoons.
In explaining the preparation of Chinese foods, Mr. Yeh said "the chief principle of Chinese cooking is to chop materials into tiny pieces so that the flavor of their sauces may be
more thoroughly absorbed." The Chinese, according to Mr. Yeh, always add salt last because they believe it makes meat tough if added while the meat is cooking. "Garlic is added to combat the bad smell of the meat," and "ginger enriches those tastes already possessed by the meat."
Enjoy Your Eating
The Chinese philosophy places an emphasis on eating. "We eat slowly and joyfully. We believe eating itself is not enough to make the dinnertime enjoyable. When we eat, we have to relax, look around, talk, and enjoy it."
Wichita Student Council Protests Sexton Slight

described as the typical Chinese gentleman.
Mr. Chow, an engineering student on the campus for two years, was termed a typical Chinese student—very impetuous and eager to right existing wrongs.
Mr. Bow, who arrived only last week from Java, plans to study business. He, said Mr. Hanson, is representative of the conservative class that rules China today.
