Son used to make Thai lettuce wraps (chicken with lots of things to
pile on) back in the days when we could find a super nice (and hot)
Thai Peanut dressing in the refrigerated section of the grocery store.
They stopped selling the dressing and he stopped making the lettuce
wraps. Not sure why he didn't put any time into perfecting the
dressing because that's what he does. I guess he had made them enough
and was over it by that time.
