WONTON SOUP
I love soups, and one of my favorites is wonton soup. This version was printed in Saveur magazine. In China this dish is considered a snack rather than one course of a meal. If you have a choice, try to find a good quality, thinner, wonton wrapper at your Asian food market. The steps look long, but I've broken them down in many simple steps for clarity.

Steps:
- Dice the green onions, and set aside all but 1 tablespoon. Slice the mushrooms, and set aside all but 1 tablespoon. Finely chop the 1 tablespoon of green onions and 1 tablespoon of sliced mushrooms, and place in a bowl with the ground pork, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, egg, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Stir to thoroughly mix the pork filling.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the pork filling onto the center of each wonton wrapper. Use your finger or a pastry brush to lightly moisten the edges of the wonton wrappers with water.

Moisten the two long ends of the triangle, fold them together, and press them firmly to seal.

Steps:
- For the wonton filling: Place the shrimp, pork, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, the oyster sauce and sesame oil in a medium bowl and mix with your hands to combine.

- Continue making the wontons: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Place about 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of 1 wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges with some of the beaten egg. Pinch in all the sides to make a small sack, enclosing the filling. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.

DECONSTRUCTED WONTON SOUP
Wonton is one of my favorite types of soup. When I wanted to whip up a homemade version, I decided to take a shortcut and combined pork meatballs with wide egg noodles. If I have them on hand, I'll add sliced water chestnuts, barbecued pork or sesame seeds to switch it up. -Joanne Neidhamer, Tuolumne, California

This is delicious! I am not an experienced cook by any means, but this was easy! I initially got the idea from a soup recipe, but changed the wonton ingredients to suit and added to the soup. Great meal and feeds 4-6 people ... the only thing I had to go out and buy was the wonton wrappers and spring onion! It is surprisingly filling! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

CHEF JOHN'S PORK WONTON SOUP
The term 'wonton' is mostly commonly translated as meaning 'irregularly-shaped pasta'. The second translation I found is from a popular Cantonese homonym that literally means 'swallowing clouds'. If given the choice between eating 'irregularly-shaped pasta', or 'swallowing clouds', I'm going with the clouds every time! You can add ginger, onion, soy, hot pepper, cilantro, lime, lemon grass, etc., to suit your taste and customize the broth.

Steps:
- Place shrimp in a food processor and pulse a few times to coarsely chop.

- Lay the wonton wrappers on a flat surface and place a scant teaspoon of shrimp mixture in the center of each wrapper. Combine remaining 1 teaspoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water to form a paste. One at a time, brush some cornstarch paste around the edge of a wonton wrapper and fold the wrapper in half to make a semicircle, pressing edges together to seal. Then, holding the wonton with the curved edge facing away from you, bring the tips of the straight edge together and seal with more cornstarch paste. Repeat with remaining wontons.

Steps:
- There's just one step, so pay close attention:.
- Place soup and frozen poststickers in a pot, bring to a boil.
- That's it, it's ready to ladle into bowls and serve!
- This recipe is infinitely variable, change it to suit your taste and needs:.
- You can use a 10.5 Oz can of condensed soup, and choose one with more veggies, noodles, lower sodium or whatever you like. Substitute chicken broth or stock if that's all you have on hand.
- Try adding a few sliced shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced carrots,green onions, bok choy, or other veggies to add nutrition and flavor.
- Frozen potstickers come in several varieties. Pork, chicken, veggie, veggie & pork, etc. Add more potstickers to the soup to make it more filling or stretch it to feed more people.
Tips:
- Use fresh wonton wrappers. Fresh wonton wrappers are more pliable and easier to work with than dried wrappers. If you can't find fresh wonton wrappers, you can use dried wrappers, but be sure to soak them in water for 15 minutes before using.
- Don't overfill the wontons. Overfilling the wontons will make them difficult to seal and they may burst during cooking. Fill the wontons with just enough filling so that they can be easily sealed.
- Seal the wontons tightly. To prevent the filling from leaking out, be sure to seal the wontons tightly. You can do this by folding the corners of the wonton wrapper over the filling and then pressing them together firmly.
- Cook the wontons in a large pot of boiling water. This will help to prevent the wontons from sticking together. Once the wontons are cooked, remove them from the pot and drain them on paper towels.
- Serve the wontons immediately. Wontons are best served immediately after they are cooked. You can serve them in a bowl of broth, or you can pan-fry them and serve them with a dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Wonton soup is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give wonton soup a try!
