Description

Serves
8
For pork filling:
- 3/4 cup shredded Napa cabbage
- 1/4 cup grated carrot
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced celery
- 1/2 pound ground pork
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Pinch white pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1/2 tablespoon dry sherry
- 1/2 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon chopped green onions
- 1 package (12 ounces) won ton wrappers
- 4 1/2 ounces Glace de Poulet Gold® dissolved in 12 cups hot water
- Salt and ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Asian chile-garlic sauce, or to taste, optional
- 1/2 bunch green onions, sliced
Methods/steps
- Combine the cabbage, carrot, and celery in a food processor and pulse 10-12 times (or chop with a chef's knife). Transfer the vegetables to a mixing bowl and add the ground pork, salt, white pepper, sugar, cornstarch, soy sauce, sesame oil, sherry, ginger, and green onions. With clean hands, mix until well-blended. Refrigerate the filling in a covered container until you're ready to use it, not more than 8 hours.
- Place 1 1/2 teaspoons of the filling in the center of each won ton wrapper. Close the wontons, forming a purse shape by gathering edges up around the filling and pinching ends together at the top. Set the wontons aside until all are made. (You should have about 36 total.)
- Bring the dissolved Glace de Poulet Gold® to a boil over high heat in a deep, large pan. Place the wontons in the boiling stock and cook about 4 minutes, until the filling is firm to the touch and the internal temperature of filling reaches 165 degrees. (Check by inserting an instant-read thermometer halfway into center of a wonton.)
- With a slotted spoon, transfer the wontons to soup bowls. Season the hot stock with salt and pepper and the Asian chile-garlic sauce, if desired. Carefully ladle the hot stock over the wontons and garnish the soup with the green onions.
