...should achieve full benefit from the sauce of Chinese dishes, since that is the essence of their charm. Observe, for instance, the mainstay of any Chinese meal, shrimp with lobster sauce. On a base of shrimp, the dish features lobster sauce, made of pork, egg, cornstarch--for body--and a gentle hint of garlic. Naturally, this recipe varies with each restaurant, the only constant factor being the absence of lobster as an ingredient.
