LOVE appetizers! Not something we do every day, but when done on occasion, it makes a meal really special!

Thanks!! Glad you thought the “raisin” description worked — I was a bit worried it might be an odd association, but I couldn’t think of anything else the right size!

That looks yummy! When I make these rolls, apart from the peanut sauce (hoysin sauce with chopped peanuts) I also layer a light sauce made of lime juice, fish or soy sauce, chili paste, crushed garlic and a little sugar. It might be the extra zing you are looking for?
