Shrimp Wonton Soup

I love wonton soup! This is one of my comfort foods. I found this recipe on the web quite awhile ago on "Damn Delicious". I made a couple of alterations but not much.

This an afternoon project. Sitting at my dining room table, watching TV and making wontons. I lay them out on sheet trays lined with parchment paper and freeze what I don't use for dinner that night. The frozen ones I put in freezer bags in dinner size portions for future dinners or lunch.

I would give instructions on how to wrap them, but the package of wontons gives really good instructions. I will say, make sure you get all the air out when you seal the or they will burst when you cook them.

Hope you enjoy. 🙂

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine shrimp, garlic, green onions, oyster sauce, ginger, sesame oil, Sriracha and pepper.

  2. 2

    To assemble the wontons, place wrappers on a work surface (I usually do 3 at a time). Keep remaining wrappers under a slightly damp cloth, they dry out quickly. Spoon appx 1 tsp of the shrimp mixture on to the center of the wrappers. Using your finger, rub the edge of the wrappers with water. Fold the dough over the filling to creat a triangle, pinch the edges to seal, set aside.

  3. 3

    Heat 1 tbls sesame oil in a large stock pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, and cook stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Whisk in chicken broth, mushrooms and 2 cups water.

  5. 5

    Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer till mushrooms have softened, about 10 minutes. Stir in greens and/or bok choy, and green onions. Stir in miso paste until well combined, about 1-2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Stir I wontons until cooked through, appx 2-3 minutes

  7. 7

    Enjoy
