Author's Notes

Yield 6-8 servings and about 20-25 wontons.

Cook soup and wontons separately, otherwise wontons get mushy and the soup cloudy.

To prevent the wontons from sticking to each other as you plate them, drizzle a bit of sesame oil over them.

Keep leftover wonton soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days in the freezer for up to 6 months. Keep leftover wontons separate from the soup in small batches in separate Ziploc bags.

Reheat soup and wontons together on the stovetop or microwave for 2-3 minutes.

step 1
Prepare the wonton filling by combining in a bowl Ground Pork (8 oz), Shrimp (8 oz), Sesame Oil (1 Tbsp), Corn Starch (1 Tbsp), Salt (to taste), Ground White Pepper (2 dashes), and Scallions (4 Tbsp). Mix well and allow to marinate for 15 minutes.

step 2
Place about 1 Tbsp of the pork and shrimp filling into the middle of each Wonton Wrappers (25). Dip your finger in some water and use it to “draw” a circle around the filling on the wonton wrapper. This will help create a seal when you fold the wrapper.
