Won Ton Soup With Pork And Snow Peas Recipes

PORK WONTON SOUP

Steps:

• Whisk rice wine and cornstarch together in large bowl. Add ground pork, 2 tablespoons green onion, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, and sugar; stir until well combined and paste-like, about 10 minutes. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Place about 1 tablespoon pork mixture in the middle of a wonton wrapper. Brush edges with beaten egg and pinch edges to seal, creating a small pouch. Repeat with remaining wonton wrappers and pork mixture. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add bok choy, snap peas, carrot, and 2 tablespoons green onion, cover, and steam until tender, 2 to 6 minutes. Remove and distribute evenly among 4 soup bowls.
• Place wontons in steamer basket and steam until pork is no longer pink inside, about 10 minutes. Remove and place in soup bowls alongside vegetables.
• Heat chicken broth and water in a saucepan until hot, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour hot broth mixture evenly into soup bowls atop vegetables and wontons. Sprinkle 1/4 cup chopped green onion evenly over each bowl.

WONTON SOUP (馄饨汤)

Steps:

• Add ground pork, scallions, ginger, light soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, salt, white pepper and 3 tablespoons of chicken stock to a mixing bowl. Swirl constantly to combine until the meat fully absorbs the liquid and becomes a sticky paste.
• With your fingertip, wet the edge of a wonton wrapper with a little water. Place some pork filling in the middle. Fold the wrapper into a rectangle. Press to seal the edge. From the folded side, wet one corner then place the other corner on top. Press to seal (see video below).
• In a saucepan, heat the chicken broth to a boiling point. Set aside for later use.
• While the broth is heated, bring plenty of water in a separate pot/wok to a full boil. Gently put in the wontons. Move them around with a spoon to avoid sticking. You may need to cook them in batches (see note 3).
• When the wontons rise from the bottom and float on the surface, continue boiling for a further 1½ minutes or so. Put in bok choy and cook for another 20 seconds.
• Add salt, ground white pepper and sesame oil to 4 serving bowls, then top up each one with the heated broth.
• Fish out the wontons and bok choy and put them to the bowls. Garnish with scallions and chili oil (if using).
• You may freeze uncooked wontons right after they're assembled (Do not leave them on the counter for too long). Lay them in a single layer on a tray lined with parchment paper. Once completely frozen, transfer them to airtight bags or containers.
• Cook frozen wontons: Do not defrost. Follow the same method above.

WONTON SOUP

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.

WON TON SOUP WITH PORK AND SNOW PEAS

Steps:

• Additional salted water is to be used to pre-cook won tons before placing in broth.
• Put water and 1 tsp salt in a stock pot; when all wrappers are filled, heat water to a boil.
• Combine stock ingredients (excepting snow peas,) in a 2 quart stock pot; gently simmer while preparing won tons.
• Mix all filling ingredients in a pie pan, then flatten mixture to cover the base of the pan; divide (as cutting a pie) into 12 wedges so each won ton will contain similar amounts of filling.
• Keep unfilled/filled wrappers covered with a damp towel to keep them from drying.
• Place each portion of filling on the center of a wrapper; moisten the edges of the wrapper with water, then fold like an envelope, making sure all edges are adhered.
• When all wrappers are filled, gently drop into boiling salted water; add 1/2 cup cold water and return to a boil, stirring gently so won tons don't stick to bottom of pan.
• When won tons begin to float, cook for an additional minute then remove from water and drain; won tons will adhere to each other, so separate them.
• Remove scallions/green onions and ginger slice from simmering broth and add halved snow peas and drained won tons; heat thoroughly, then portion 3 won tons in 4 bowls, with snow peas and broth divided among the bowls.

DUMPLING SOUP WITH BACON AND SNOW PEAS

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat until browned around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger, half of the scallions, 1 teaspoon salt and the sugar; stir-fry 30 seconds. Add the broth and 1 cup water; cover and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, combine the cornstarch and 3 tablespoons water in a small bowl. Add the sesame oil and 1 teaspoon pepper and stir to combine.
• Add the snow peas, tomatoes, watercress and dumplings to the boiling broth mixture. Stir the cornstarch mixture again and add to the soup. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the dumplings are tender and the broth thickens slightly, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining scallions and season with pepper.

WON TON SOUP

Steps:

• For the Won Tons:.
• Mix all Won Ton filling ingredients together in a medium bowl.
• Spoon about a teaspoon of filling onto each Won Ton skin and, wetting the edges, fold in half to seal, or into whatever dumpling shape you prefer.
• Repeat until all filling is used.
• Heat 3 quarts lightly salted water to a boil in a large soup pot.
• Boil Won Tons about 5-7 minutes, or until cooked through. Test by cutting one in half with a knife, if unsure, to ensure filling is cooked through.
• For the Broth:.
• In a medium sauce pot heat broth, soy sauce, sesame oil, green onion and garlic to a boil.
• Add spinach and cook until wilted.
• In a shallow, pasta-style bowl place 4-5 dumplings and ladle spinach and broth over top.
