Abstract
This booklet has forty recipes with ingredients listed . Recipe category titles include : Great Beginnings : Authentic Oriental Creations ; The Oriental Way with Vegetables ; and Finishing Touches . Before the recipes , there are four pages about the cuisine of the region and modern-day cooking . There are ten suggested menus using items in this booklet . After the recipes , thre is a single page about the history of La Choy . There is a color photograph featuring forty-two of La Choy products . The back cover says : "La Choy a division of Beatrice Foods Co. " As many recipes are neither Asian nor Chinese , this is not a Chinese pamphlet ; though some listings indicate it as such . Many recipes are for dishes that the company perceives American think are Chinese . The spelling of La Choy or LaChoy in this annotation follows style used in this booklet .
