Mock Wonton Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, place the chicken broth and, over high heat, bring it to a boil.
• Add frozen tortellini and veggies, let return to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, or until tortellini is tender; stir occasionally.
• Remove from heat, stir in onion, sesame oil, and ginger; serve.

Steps:

• Put pork and chopped suey choi in a large glass bowl. Don't let any pork drippings (water, etc) get in the bowl.
• Add 5 TB soy sauce, 1 TB sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and salt.
• Stir until seasonings and cabbage are evenly mixed.
• Add egg and mix. Add flour and mix. Meat mixture should be holding together like for meatballs. Add more flour if needed.
• Bring about 4 cups of water to boil. Add 1 bouillon cube.
• Drop 6-7 meatballs into the broth at a time. Takes about 8 minutes per batch to cook. I always pull the biggest one in the batch out and cut it open to check it is well cooked. Don't let it boil too vigorously or they'll fall apart.
• Continue boiling by batches until done (makes about 25).
• Discard broth. Can refrigerate meatballs at this point if making ahead.
• Broth: Heat 6 cups of water, chopped onions, rice noodles and 2 bouillon cubes in a large pot. Add meatballs.
• Once heated through, add cabbage leaves, reserved soy sauce and sesame oil. Reduce to simmer or shut off, garnish with 1 chopped green onion, and serve.

Steps:

• Make wontons.
• Make soup: In a large pot, combine broth, 4 cups water, and 1 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil. Add wontons one at a time; return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until wontons are just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in scallions, vinegar, and sesame oil; season with salt. Serve.

Steps:

• Remove broth from heat and set aside.
• Wontons:.
• Place 2 tbsp chicken stock and cornstarch into a large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
• Add minced scallions, minced ginger, pork, soy sauce, dry sherry, sesame oil, and sugar, and stir well.
• Fill a cup with water and set it nearby.
• Place a wrapper in front of you so that it looks like a diamond.
• Dip your finger in the water and moisten all 4 edges of the wrapper.
• Place about 1 tsp of the meat mixture in the center of the wrapper and fold in half over the filling to make a triangle.
• Press firmly along the sides to seal it and remove any excess trapped air.
• Moisten the left and right corners of the triangle and pinch them together.
• Place stuffed wonton on a wax paper lined baking sheet and cover lightly with a kitchen towel.
• Repeat until all wontons are made.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine pork, shrimp, sugar, wine, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon chopped green onion and ginger. Blend well, and let stand for 25 to 30 minutes.
• Place about one teaspoon of the filling at the center of each wonton skin. Moisten all 4 edges of wonton wrapper with water, then pull the top corner down to the bottom, folding the wrapper over the filling to make a triangle. Press edges firmly to make a seal. Bring left and right corners together above the filling. Overlap the tips of these corners, moisten with water and press together. Continue until all wrappers are used.
• FOR SOUP: Bring the chicken stock to a rolling boil. Drop wontons in, and cook for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion, and serve.
