Fortune Cookies
Before we look at fortunes, let’s learn about how these fortune cookies got started. Fortune cookies are made with sugar, flour, oil, and vanilla. The recipe for fortune cookies is based on a Japanese cracker. They are flat cookies that have a fortune placed in the center, are folded over, and then the ends are brought together.
Fortune cookies were introduced in the first part of the 20th century in the United States. It is interesting to note that they are not found in China, only in Chinese restaurants in the United States. The fortunes are written on a slip of paper and may have words of wisdom, a prophecy, or lucky numbers. Sometimes there is a Chinese phrase and its translation.
