Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 1 tablespoon shaoxing wine optional
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 100 pieces mini wonton wrappers

Instructions

  • First, we make the wonton filling! In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients (except for the wonton wrappers).
  • Mix everything together in one direction (I go counter clockwise) until evenly combined.
    Why mix in one direction? Doing so helps the wonton filling stick together and makes the filling extra tender when cooking.
  • Prepare your wrapping station. On a clean table, lay out the wonton wrappers, the pork filling, and a plate to place all the wrapped wontons.
  • Wrap the wontons. Put a very small portion (about ½ teaspoon) of the filling in the center of the wrapper.
  • Use both hands to gently squeeze and seal the wrapper. The best way to describe this is like you are "scrunching" the wonton skin to seal in the pork filling. We're not aiming for pretty and perfect folds, but something more casual and natural.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil, add the wontons and cook for 2 minutes. Drain and serve in a bowl of hot soup (here's how we make wonton soup). Or toss with a tasty sauce. Enjoy ^_^
