BOILED DISHES
HASHLAMA.
Boiled Dishes are the most common, and therefore the most popular dishes of the
Orient with the class of people that need to practice economy for various
reasons. A boiled meat dish is a double dish with an Oriental housewife, because
she makes separate use of the meat and the broth. The meat boiled she serves
with a little broth, and with the remainder of the latter she either makes a
soup by adding some rice or vegetable to it, or cooks a pilaf with it, without
much extra cost, material, or time.
There is an absolute belief in the Orient in the finer taste of the meat with
the bone, and as this belief on the part of the Orientals is not without a fair
foundation, it is therefore recommended to all who wish to try the Oriental
cooking on an absolute economical basis.
