China
These Sichuan Chicken Wings might be one of my all-time favorites. Sweet, spicy, sticky, so good. The wings do take a bit of work and attention, so I paired them with two super simple and quick recipes for Vegetarian Chow Mein and Stir-Fried Choy Sum.
As soon as I opened the fresh bag of Sichuan peppercorns I knew we needed to create a cocktail to put them in. They were tart, spicy, floral, and something completely unknown.
Hope you enjoyed the race as much as we did. It was made even better with the meal of authentic Chinese dishes from All Under Heaven, a fantastic tome of traditional Chinese cooking.
This year we finally did it. We made our own Chinese food! And because I can't resist a cooking challenge we made three dishes, two of which were fried and none of which I had ever made before.
China! Honestly I have some awesome Chinese recipes, I want to learn to make homemade chow fun, Chinese- American classics like General Tso's chicken and Honey Walnut shrimp. Maybe even some traditional Chinese recipes.But... we can't resist the ease of a call, they already know our address, I have our order memorized and can say it by rote AND it is at my door in 20 minutes.
One of my favorite dim sum snacks, veganized.
