“I’m looking forward to seeing everyone virtually for a relaxing evening of wrapping doughy babies and chatting about what they think peanut butter dumplings are and what they could be,” says Cheung.
Soba’s Corner is an ongoing YouTube-style cooking show that launched in 2020 and showcases “various Chinese-Canadian dishes from specific provinces,” such as Montreal-style peanut butter dumplings and Alberta ginger beef.
