Pork Wonton Soup





Wonton filling


2 tablespoons minced celery


1 scallion, chopped fine


1 teaspoon cornstarch


2 tablespoons water


1 tablespoon soy sauce


1/4 teaspoon grated fresh ginger


1 tablespoon sesame oil


1/2 lb ground pork


1 tablespoon finely grated carrots (optional)


1 cup napa cabbage (chopped fine)


Wontons


40 wonton wrappers (about one package)


Soup


8 cups chicken broth (homemade or canned)


Topping


1 cup napa cabbage leaves, tips with no stem


2 scallions, chopped (green part only)





Add all meat filling and let set for 30 minutes.


Mix the chopped cabbage with the pork.


Method:.


Set out ten wonton wrappers on a counter surface.


Place 3/4 teaspoon of the filling in the center of each wonton wrapper.


Have a cup of water handy.


Moisten both index fingers with water.


With a corner pointing up, moisten two adjoining edges of the corner with water.


Repeat with all ten wontons.


Bring the opposite corner up and fold together over the filling to make a triangle.


Run your fingers along edge to seal tightly.


At the bottom,fold the remaining side corners together; moisten and seal tightly.


In a large saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil over medium/high heat.


Using a spatula to remove wontons from counter, drop in the ten wontons, stirring gently.


Place lid on saucepan and reduce the heat to medium.

Wow! You're getting some detailed recipes for won ton skin fillers!





Regarding the broth:





I found a broth that is packaged in an aseptic package at Costco that is much better than Swanson's or any of the other canned broths that I've tried. Unfortunately I'm not at home right now so I can't tell you the name of it. Send me an email if you're interested and I'll get back to you.





There are three must have components that I always add to my broth when making won ton soup. I put julienne sliced ginger root in the broth and bring it to a boil before turning it down to a simmer. A teaspoon of oyster flavored sauce and a few drops of sesame seed oil will add great body to the broth as well. How much of each is dependent on your taste buds. Experiment to see what works for you.





If I'm making won ton, I always boil them in water separately from the broth. While the won ton are boiling, I slice a carrot or two using a box grater and drop in some baby bok choy. A few sliced shiitake mushrooms add a earthy flavor. Be sure not to overcook the vegetables.





If you want to get fancy, buy some chinese bbq pork (char siu), slice up some chicken and peel some shrimp. Add these to the broth just before adding the vegetables.





I have go now. I'm getting hungry! Bon appetit!!!
