Sweet and Sour Recipes
 The
term Sweet and sour is most often linked with Chinese cooking and whilst it is
widely believed that the idea originated in Canton, a province in China, it
isn't known exactly when it was created although some say it was specifically
created for western tastes - much like Indian Tikka Masala.
Be that as it may, sweet and sour dishes are
popular in China. Apparently, the Cantonese word for "sour" sounds like the word
for "grandchildren" so sweet and sour pork has become a traditional dish served
at New year as it is believed the eating of it will ensure new
grandchildren in the coming year.
Practically anything can be cooked in the Sweet
and Sour mode from fish to poultry to meat and the Chinese aren't the only
people to use this mix.
Below are a few Sweet and Sour recipes for you to
try. Don't be afraid to vary the ratio of sweet to sour according to your own
taste.
