This week i decided to start earlier in the week because i had a recipe i found last week i have been wanting to make. The dish is called a cream cheese wonton. This dish is a dumpling with a savoring filling and is very good when made correctly. This dish actually originated in A restaurant called Trader Vics located in San Francisco in 1950. Trader vics was a popular chain of Polynesian-style tiki-themed bars. It is a common misconception that these are a Chinese dish but it turns out that the only thing authentically Chinese about these wontons is the wrapping. Now that we have a little back ground information about this dish lets get to the ingredients. The ingredients for a full 24 consist of wraps,chopped chives,cream cheese,olive oil,garlic, miced onion, Worcestershire sauce, and some kind of pan to cook them in. This week the best pan i could find was a cupcake pan so lets see how well that worked out shall we? the image below is the ingredients i have described here. Now to start on the cooking as is usual for every dish i pre heated the oven to 325 degrees. This dish was surprisingly straight forward because next you just have to mix everything together. 8 ounces of cream cheese, teaspoon of minced onion,half a table spoon of garlic powder,half a table spoon of chives,a pinch of salt,and a table spoon of Worcestershire sauce. Once mixed i sprayed non stick spray on the pan and placed the wrappers to be filled. Each wrapper takes half a table spoon of the mixture. Once all of that is done we use that famous pre heated oven and bake the wontons for 8 to 10 minutes. Below is a picture of the finished dish. Over all this was a nice dish not to complex. Personally it is not my favorite but the others in my family liked it so i will take their opinion over mine.
