Chinese Cooking

Have you ever eaten Szechuan food? It’s often fiery and hot. Can you recreate that fire at home? You’d be surprised at just how close you can come to doing just that.

Szechuan cuisine, also known as Sichuan cooking, is named for the region in China from which it comes. It’s such a flavorful type of cooking, incorporating many ingredients like chili sauce, black vinegar, Shaoxing wine and garlic.

Some of the ingredients we’ll use in this cookbook were adopted for the cuisine because of the poor weather in the Szechuan region. They have a great deal of rain and high humidity, so they use red pepper and chilies in many of their dishes. They help in reducing the dampness of the dishes, which is why their dishes are usually quite hot.

The appeal of Szechuan cuisine goes beyond its pungency. The region offers fish dishes and they have more beef dishes than many other regions of China

Gerontology Social Sciences
In this poignant and fearless account, Sarton chronicles the struggles of life at eighty-two. She juxtaposes the quotidian details of life—battling a leaky roof, sharing an afternoon nap with her cat, the joy of buying a new mattress—with lyrical musings about work, celebrity, devoted friends, and the limitations wrought by the frailties of age. She creates poetry out of everyday existence, whether bemoaning a lack of recognition by the literary establishment or the devastation wrought by a series of strokes. Incapacitated by illness, Sarton relies on friends for the little things she always took for granted. As she becomes more and more aware of “what holds life together in a workable whole,” she takes solace in flowers and chocolate and reading letters from devoted fans. This journal takes us into the heart and mind of an extraordinary artist and woman, and is a must-read for Sarton devotees and anyone facing the reality of growing older.
