When people hear chinese takeout🥡 food, they’d probably immediately think of some fried rice, noodles, beef and broccoli, sweet and sour chicken, the usual stuff! But when I hear chinese takeout food, I think of one thing: vegan cold wontons in spicy peanut sauce!
Yes! Cold wontons. I mean, come’on, that’s dang cool! What kind of a food-sharer would I be, in particular at this timely juncture of early June, if I didn’t immediately pounce on this brilliance like scarlett on hulk, and send you an exhilarating cool wave of these wontons?
I don’t even think it’s served in all chinese restaurants. But there’s this chinese restaurant in our neighbourhood that serves the most delicious wontons with peanut sauce. So delicious that I made it last night for a light cold appetiser and they went over like gangbusters! They’re these delicious wontons with peanut sauce with the perfect balance of sweet, salty, and spicy flavours. Can I get a yum! 😋
Designed specifically to lower your smoldering summer body-temperature by the cold firmness of ice-shocked wontons, with a savoury and mildly apple juice peanut sauce in the perfect consistency of chilled gazpacho, then last but not least, plus the sweat gland-stimulating burns of my best, nuclear-active chili oil. The velvety coolness of the wonton wrappers brushes through your tongue as pleasantly as a cold sheet against your warm skin, then blazing through the first impact, is the creamy and nutty burn that broadcasts its summer-beating intention right through your skulls.
It’s not food-myth. It’s biology. Highlighted with the sweet tang from aged balsamic vinegar, and tingling numbs from ground sichuan peppercorn, it’s scientifically sound to say that this dish will be your ultimate revenge towards the coming ass-binding heatwaves – a refreshingly pleasurable pain, best served cold. Definitely a delicious, Asian comfort food that is so rich and satisfying to eat!
