Through recipes that use time-honored medicinal
ingredients, A Tradition of Soup provides a fascinating narrative
of the Southern Chinese immigrants who came to the United States in
large numbers during the last half century, the struggles they
faced and overcame, and the soups they used to heal and nourish
their bodies. 
　　 
　　Following the Chinese approach to health, Teresa Chen, who was
born into a family of food connoisseurs and raised by a gourmet
cook, groups the recipes by seasons and health concerns according
to Cantonese taxonomy: tong (simple broths, soups, and stews), geng
(thickened soups), juk (rice soups or porridges), and tong shui
(sweet soups), as well as noodle soups, wonton and dumpling soups,
and vegetable soups. Also focusing on dahn (steaming) and louhfo
(slow-cooking) soups associated with good health, the book features
fresh, natural, and seasonal food. A Tradition of Soup highlights
recipes that serve a wide range of purposes, from gaining or
shedding weight to healing acne and preventing wrinkles. While some
ingredients may seem foreign to Western readers, most are available
in Chinese grocery stores. 
　　 
　　To help readers identify and procure these items, Chen provides a
beautifully photographed ingredients glossary complete with Chinese
names, pronunciation, and detailed de*ions.
