Wonton Soup

I'm making wonton Soup tonight. Some pictures to follow

That's great, but which is heavier? Wonton soup or wonton feathers?

If you fuck up I'm gonna kick your ass

Well I ran out of wrappers and decided to throw them in the freezer until tomorrow when I make it.

I took 2 pictures, 1 of the filling I'm using and the other of some of the wontons I finished. I didn't take a pic when i was done because I forgot. They're in the freezer now waiting for tomorrow afternoon.

Kick his fucking ass

>inb4 a bunch of pissy asians going reeeee muh dumplings

I scrapped the middle one because it was fucked up, and the one at the bottom with the open air hole I fixed that. I filled this big platter and a small plate.

All in all I think about 50 wontons?

Next time I go down for a smoke maybe I'll take a pic of them in my freezer in the garage if anyone wants to see the total.

I don't care about the shape either. They're filled and sealed. Good for me.

Dumplings are delicious, I don't care who makes it.

YOU DUN GOOFED ALREADY

What ingrediebts are you making the broth with?

How so?

I'm using chicken broth I made and froze a while ago.

I'm open to suggestion as to what to put it though.

I've sliced some shiitake mushrooms and bok choy to put in the broth.

I use fresh ginger in mine but I like that knda burn

I put ginger in the filling.

Filling:

1lb ground pork
Minced green onions & garlic
ginger
soy sauce
fish sauce
hot sauce
sesame oil
white pepper

Definitely some fine chopped scallions for that flavor and visual asthetics

I have half the green onions left. I'm gonna slice them and put some in the broth, then save whatever is left for putting in individual bowls for whoever wants them.

Crack an egg into the soup when it's boiling and everything's in it, and then break it up and stir it in the soup.

Underrated post

I laughed

on all accounts, fuck your joke, but I laughed

...

I'm thinking about steaming these instead of boiling them. But I don't have a bamboo steamer, just a regular vegetable steamer.

Should I spray them liberally with an oil spray to prevent them all from sticking?

Finished soup

...

For future reference OP, if you have some dumplings by them self a bomb ass sauce is sesame oil, soy sauce, and sweet chili sauce

Cool thanks for the info. I have all those now, maybe I'll make a small amount to taste it? Any suggestions on the amounts to use?

And if anyone else is still looking at this thread. The wontons I steamed in my steamer and then dropped in the broth. I sauteed the mushrooms for about 10 min, then added all the broth, simmered, added the satlk part of the bok choy, simmered again, and added the leaves along with scallions.

Then I dumped all the steamed wontons in while swirling the water.

I have to say. This soup came out fantastic. I did season the broth with soy sauce, white pepper, black pepper, and added a bit of chicken base too. It's damn good though guys.

>Wonton soup or wonton feathers?
explain

nevermind got it. :3

one ton soup or one ton feathers
theres the joke
it's in mispronunciation of the word wonton

Cam anyone recommend/post a good recipe for this? One that you've tried and that gave good results I mean
OP...?

OP here. I used Chef John's recipe as a guide line.
You're gonna make WAY more 1 package of wontons with only 1lb of pork. Buy at least 2 packages of wonton wrappers.

You're also gonna use 3 boxes of chicken stock at least.

Add soy sauce, white pepper, black pepper, (I added chicken bouillon too) BTW this is all to taste. So taste as you go and adjust. I like Accent (MSG) just a little shake.

And follow my steps above. I told you about sauteeing the shittake mushrooms and separating the Bok Choy.
