记得很久以前,每逢过年过节,双亲总是准备了许多美味佳肴让一家人团聚在一起庆祝佳节。年轻的我总会兴奋地在旁协助,在双亲的熏陶逐渐对烹饪产生浓厚兴趣。

随 着岁月的过去,我也身为人妻人母,为了让子女及丈夫吃得开心及富有营养,我到处学烹饪,厨艺进一步获得提升,并获得诗巫基督教青年会的邀请教导烹饪课程, 为时十五年之久,目前已届退休年龄。除了传统福州美食之外,糕点及小食制作依然是我的最爱,常不知不觉投入时间研究,家人因此口福不浅。

相 信所有对烹饪有研究的人都希望出版一本属于自己的食谱专辑,我也不例外。感谢同乡钱学芬老师向来自西马Y3K出版社老板余先生伉俪推荐,在她的穿针引线之 下,让我实现这十多年的梦想,协助我完成这本食谱。这本书内的福州小食及地方糕粿是累计我多年研究的成果,希望与大家分享,并获得你们的支持!

A Century Of Inherited Customs
An Oasis Of Fookchow Culture


Sibu is the third largest of the 11 divisions in Sarawak. Population estimate stands at 20 thousand and is made up of generally Chinese at around 62%. Fookchow people form the largest group though there are a vast number of different dailects too.

Local history narrated by Mr. Wong Nai Siong, a local born in China, had many same villagemen from Fookchow settling in Sibu a century ago. It was in 21-1-1901 when 72 Fookchow immigrants emigrated here. A second batch of 535 came at a later date of 16-3-1901. This date had become a celebrity cause but in June 1901, another batch of 511 Fookchow immigrants came along, thus, it promoted Sibu to be known as the town to offer spontaneous Fookchow hospitality.

Their earnest work has left a legacy that charaterizes Sibu today. Though some of the serenity is gone but it has helped to launch many development plans. The clan has a strong rapport and embraces a good sence of filiar piety values towards elders. Of course there is no difficulty getting good Fookchow cuisine in Sibu. Most famous dishes known as Ting Pian Hoo, or Fookchow Preserved Vegetable Meehoon Soup, Fookchow Meesuah, Red Rice Wine Residue Duck and many more.
The compilation of 60 recipes into the book, "Snacks From Sibu" comes from Fookchow lady Madam Lau. Her four grown-up children always reminisced about her cooking. This certainly gave her good inspiration to put all details into print. Try cooking them as you will find these treats well-worth your efforts.

百年历史“新福州”
诗巫在东马来西亚砂拉越州,是该州十一个省第三大省。人口廿多万,其中以华人占大多数,占了总人口的62%之多。在众多华人当中,福州人的人数排第一。

根 据诗巫史料记载,中国福州人黄乃裳游说他的乡人移民到诗巫,结果成功招募了首批72名福州人于1901年1月21日抵达。第二批535名福州人在同年的3 月16日抵步,从此,这一天即被福州人定为"新福州垦场纪念日"。在6月,最后一批511福州人到达后,诗巫也被称为"新福州"。

在福州人刻苦耐劳、勤奋进取的努力创造之下,经过一百多年的建设,诗巫无论在农业、水产养殖业、制造业、旅游业等均取得卓越的成绩。

生性团结的福州人虽然离开中国百年,却依然保留许多福州的优良传统,对父母亲孝顺,对兄弟友爱,对子女关怀备至。在诗巫,福州话是大众媒介语,家长都坚持孩子必须会讲福州话。在这里不难找到福州小食,其中最著名的有鼎边糊、糟菜米粉、福州面线、红糟鸭等。

《诗巫小食》这本书收集了六十个当地传统小食及糕点,作者是来自诗巫的福州奶奶,对传统福州及诗巫小食了如指掌,四个子女都已成材,身在国外的孩子最怀念她的传统小食。喜欢小食的读者必不能错过这本食谱。
