Peanut soup of Xiamen, China

Peanut soup of Xiamen, China

This grey milky broth looks more like dish water than soup. Like alot of food in China, it tastes better than it looks.
The soup is sweet and and peanuts melt in your mouth – there is no crunchiness to them at all. The bowl is quite small (especially if you are used to American sized portions) so it is hard to resist having just one.
At 2 Yuan (about 30c USD) it’s also one of the best value snacks around (price from November 2010).
