Why This Recipe Works
This oniony relish is a great accompaniment to foods with lighter flavors such as steamed fish and Soy Sauce Chicken. We’ve also spooned this on noodles and rice and once, when no one was looking, over a hot dog. This recipe is from A Very Chinese Cookbook: 100 Recipes from China and Not China (But Still Really Chinese).
