Ingredients

Units Scale

Wontons

  • 24 wonton wrappers
  • 1/4 lb ground pork
  • 4 oz slaw mix, finely chopped
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tablespoon Tamari (or soy sauce)
  • 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • 3/4 teaspoon Sherry
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 egg slightly beaten

Broth

  • 2 quarts chicken stock
  • 6 green onions, bias sliced
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • 2 1/2 fl oz Tamari (or soy sauce)
  • olive oil

Instructions

Wontons

  1. Mix together ingredients for the wontons (except the egg) in a medium bowl.
  2. Spoon 1 teaspoon of the wonton filling into the center of each wonton. Use the beaten egg to moisten the edges of the wonton, and then fold the wontons using the directions in the post above. Keep the unused wonton wrappers and the prepared wontons covered during this process to prevent them from drying out.
  3. Bring a pot to a boil. Drop the prepared wontons into a pot of seasoned boiling water until cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the water, drain, and reserve.

Broth

  1. Heat a soup pot over medium-high heat then drizzle just enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pot.
  2. Sauté the green onions and ginger in a stock pot about a minute, just until aromatic.
  3. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce the heat and add the Tamari (or soy sauce).
  5. Adjust the seasonings, if needed.
  6. Add the wontons to a bowl and ladle the soup over the wontons.

Notes

The perfect tool for lifting your wontons from the boiling water is a spider. This is a valuable tool in the kitchen for frying chicken, blanching vegetables, cooking pasta, and lifting boiled eggs from water.
