Sean's Post-postmodern Nonsense

This is a classic Northern Chinese dish.  In traditional Chinese medicine, dates are reputed to have positive effects on "blood".  Whatever that means...My mother insists that she cured many a low white count with it, or was it some other ingredient.  (Yeah...)  The important thing is, it's sweet, and it's really tasty when you put some in a stew of chicken thighs.  In addition, it looks good.
