I am just assuming that you are working with TurboC or TurboPascal ...

Look up gettext() and puttext() in the manual of which ever compiler you are
using.

get/putimage only works for graphics screens.  The fastest way to do this is
to directly address video memory, scarf the text and attributes, and save it
away somewhere.

No, no, no.  This would create a compatibility problem.  As I said in a
previous posting, you should use gettext() and puttext().

                             Sauce for Fish
                              Hoy-Seng Ding


Ingredients:

  5 cups soy beans
  2 tbsp minced garlic
  2 tbsp boiled red rice
  1 tbsp salt
  1 1/2 tbsp sugar

Preparation:

  1. Pour 3/4 gallon boiling water into a large pot. Add all ingredients.

  3. Mash fine and put in airtight bottle. Keep in a cool place for one month.

                            Soy Bean Jam
                           Mien-Shee Ding

Ingredients:

  3 cups soy beans
  2 tbsp sugar
  3 tbsp salt

Preparation:

  1. Mix ingredients together in boiling water 3 inches over beans.
  2. Cover and cook 2 hours; add more boiling water if necessary.
  3. Preserve in airtight jar 6 months or longer.

Notes:

  1. I think this is what is called "Bean Sauce" in some places. I suspect
     that a preparation that added chopped dried red peppers would make an
     acceptable "Hot Bean Sauce".

                                  Chow You


Ingredients:

  10 cups soy beans
  1/2 cup salt
  6 gallons water
  1 qt molasses
  1 cup rice wine

Preparation:

  1. Mix beans, salt and water together and cook until boiling. Lower heat,
     simmer 5 hours. About 5 gallons of water should be left.
  2. Strain. Pour in 5-gallon glass jar, seal airtight.
  3. Place on window ledge or other sunny spot. Allow to age for 6 months.
  4. After 6 months, strain off the beans and add the molasses and rice wine.
  5. Seal again, age for at least 6 more months. Make sure there is plenty of
     sunshine.

Notes:

  1. This sauce is served with a meal as a salt substitute. It is not used for
     cooking.
  2. I think this is what Kikkoman and most Tamari sauces are.

                            Chinese Chili Sauce
                                Lard-Dew Din


Ingredients:

  5 cups red chili
  4 cups apricots
  2 tbsp preserved lemon
  2 tbsp garlic
  10 cups water

Preparation:

  1. Puree solids in a blender or food processor. Combine with water in a
     large pot.
  2. Heat until boiling, then lower heat and simmer for 1 1/2 hours.
  3. Pour in an airtight jar and keep in a warm place (in sunlight if possible)
     for 3 months or more.

Notes:

  1. The original recipe does not note what "preserved lemon" is but I would
     presume it is dried lemon peel.
  2. I suspect that "red chili" is fresh chopped red chili peppers, not some
     kind of chili powder. I'd try making a small batch and taste it before
     aging to see how hot it is.
