Open in Pepper →A Pot Of Broth And Dumplings
Wonton soup is one of those dinners that looks fussy and isn't. A good broth with ginger and green onion, a few filled wrappers dropped in at the end, and supper is on the table in a bowl everybody hands back for seconds.
Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection on cold nights, on sick days, and on the evenings when nobody can agree on what to eat but everyone will eat soup.
Every recipe here is some version of that bowl: the classic Wonton Soup with water, ginger and green onion, a Deconstructed Wonton Soup with ground pork if you don't want to fold anything, Lazy wonton soup for a rushed Tuesday, a from-scratch Wonton Soup Broth built on chicken legs, and Spicy Wonton Soup with chili crisp stirred in.
Quick Tips
- 1
Simmer the broth first
Let ginger slices, garlic and green onion stems sit in the broth 20 to 30 minutes before you add anything else. That's where the flavor comes from.
- 2
Keep wrappers under a towel
Wonton wrappers dry out in about 5 minutes uncovered. Work with a damp paper towel over the stack and seal edges with a wet fingertip.
- 3
Cook wontons separately
Boil them in plain water 3 to 4 minutes, until they float, then move them to the bowls. Keeps your broth clear instead of cloudy and starchy.
- 4
Add greens at the end
Sliced green onions and any leafy greens go in the last minute so they stay bright and don't turn slick.
