Instructions
Wontons
- In a large bowl add pork, green onions, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, grated ginger, and cornstarch. Mix well to combine.
- Place 1 teaspoon filling in the center of a wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wonton wrapper with a little bit of water and fold in half to create a triangle. Moisten the two longer tips, bring them together, and press.
- Dip the bottom in a bit of flour and place on a parchment lined pan. Repeat with the remaining wontons.
Soup
- In a large pot, add the broth, garlic, sliced ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce to a simmer, and cook uncovered for 10 minutes.
- Remove garlic and ginger and discard.
- Add the wontons to the soup and simmer for an additional 4-6 minutes or until pork is cooked through. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Wontons can be prepared, placed on a baking sheet, and frozen. Once frozen, transfer the wontons to a freezer bag for up to 4 months.
- To prepare soup with frozen wontons, bring the broth to a simmer as directed. Add the wontons and, once simmering, cook for 6 minutes.
- Optional garnish includes green onions, cilantro, or a dash of chili oil.
- Leftover soup can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. I prefer to remove the wontons and store them separately. Reheat on the stovetop.
