HOW WONTON SOUP IS MADE
I have tried a few varieties and this is my FAVORITE as it produces moist Wontons. This soup is made by handmaking the wontons and typically those wontons shells are pre-made by a machine and can be bought in almost any Asian market.
Then that shell is filled with some simple ingredients before they are stuffed and rolled. Once that process is complete they are added to a pot of boiling water to cook or added to soup stock to cook and serve.
