Best 4 Won Ton Soup Recipes

SIMPLE WON TON SOUP

Steps:

• Chop the raw chicken breasts into very fine pieces and place in a medium bowl.
• Add green onions, ginger, sugar, cornstarch, soy sauce,salt, pepper and oil. Marinate for at least 1/2 hour.
• Place the broth ingredients in a large pot (dutch oven) and bring to simmer.
• Fill the won ton wrappers by placing about 1/2 teaspoon of filling into the center of each wrapper, moisten edges with water or egg white and fold into a triangle. Press edges to seal.
• Using a dutch oven, or large pot, bring about 8 cups of water to a boil.
• Drop the won tons into the boiling water a few at a time so that they are not over crowded (maybe 10 - 12 won tons) and let cook for about 5 - 7 minutes. They will float to the top as they cook.
• Remove from boiling water with slotted spoon and place the won tons directly into the broth.
• Simmer 10-15 minutes longer, then serve.

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.

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.
