The World’s Most Perfect Appetizer…

14/11/2005

… for half-black half-filipino (note: niggapino) folks like me. While browsing the FoodTV.com site looking for a new Thanksgiving dessert to make, I came across the world’s most perfect appetizer for someone of my racial background: Collard Green Won Tons.
Yes! Collard Greens in Won Ton form!! I don’t think it gets any more half-black half-asian than that. So, big ups to Paula Deen for making the one food that encompasses all of my heritage, all at once! In honor of the best recipe ever, I’ll be making the Collard Green Won Tons for Thanksgiving, and will post a detailed outcome right here on itsholly.com, just because I heart you guys.

Now, I know what you’re thinking – won tons aren’t Filipino!!! I know, I know. So, instead of won ton wrappers I’ll be using lumpia wrappers to keep it authentic. Look for more on the Collard Green Wonton Chronicles Thanksgiving week.

And last but not least, Happy Monday to all my workin’ class suckas.

    [...] 2. For being half Black and half Filipino, I don’t have a lot of Filipino or Black friends, yet I enj0y food from both cultures immensely. I jump at the chance to combine them. [...]

    [...] Loks like I’ve got a case of the hives. Why? Not sure. But it sucks, bitches, it sucks! So, I’ve taken to slathering myself in hydrocortizone and popping Benadryl. Pray for my hives to go away for me in time to make the Collard Green Won Tons. [...]
