Won Ton Soup
- 1 lb wonton wrapper, about 60-80 sheets
- 1 lb ground pork
- 1 egg, slightly beaten
- 1 (4 ounce) can water chestnuts, minced
- 2 teaspoons minced ginger or 2 teaspoons ginger juice
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 4 teaspoons soy sauce
- 14 teaspoon white pepper
- 8 cups broth
- Mix well pork, egg, water chestnut, ginger, green onion, salt, soy sauce, and pepper.
- Place a won ton wrapper on a board or countertop.
- Keep rest covered.
- Put 1 teaspoons meat mixture on a wrapper corner pointing toward you.
- Roll skin with meat inside away from you until wrapper forms a triangle.
- Lift corners of base of the triangle; moisten one corner underneath.
- Draw corners together toward you allowing wrapper to assume a "boat" shape.
- Pinch corners together firmly.
- Cook the won ton in boiling water for 8-10 minutes.
- Drain the water.
- Serve hot in 8 cups chicken broth.
- Note: Once you get the hang of making won ton you can make 6 or 8 at the same time.
- Work fast and cover the made ones with a damp towel to keep from drying out.
