Disappearing customs are a fact in modern living. Often, what remains of an ancient tradition is a dish or a confection. In Chinese culture, the link between the past and present is never more evident than at festival time. Rituals, feasts, and specialties mark each occasion. Chinese Feasts and Festivals: A Cookbook explores this aspect of Chinese culture with a collection of favorite recipes in celebration. Over 50 full-color drawings. Celebrations include: Dragon Boat Festival, Hungry Ghost Festival, Moon Festival, Winter Solstice Festival, and Chinese New Year.
