Questions about Wonton soup
How long do you cook wontons in soup?
Bring the broth to a gentle simmer, add the wontons and cook fresh ones for about 4–6 minutes, or frozen ones for 6–8 minutes, until the wrappers are tender and the filling is cooked through. Avoid a rolling boil, which can split the wrappers.
Can you cook frozen wontons without thawing them first?
Yes. Add them straight from the freezer to gently simmering broth and allow a few extra minutes; thawing first can make the wrappers sticky and prone to tearing.
How do you stop wontons from sticking together?
Cook them in a wide pan with plenty of gently simmering liquid, separating them carefully with chopsticks or a spoon at the start. If you are making soup ahead, store the cooked wontons apart from the broth and combine them just before serving.
Can you make wonton soup ahead and reheat it?
Make the broth ahead, but keep uncooked wontons covered in the fridge and cook them just before serving. If reheating finished soup, warm it gently until steaming throughout; prolonged boiling can break up the wrappers.
What do you serve with wonton soup?
Add leafy greens such as pak choi or Chinese cabbage to the broth, and finish with spring onion and a little sesame oil. Wonton noodles make it a more substantial bowl; serve chilli oil separately for anyone who wants heat.
What is the difference between wonton soup and egg drop soup?
Wonton soup contains filled dumplings in broth, while egg drop soup has ribbons of egg stirred into the hot liquid. Per 100 g, wonton soup has 2.1 g of protein, compared with 1.16 g in egg drop soup.
Can you freeze wonton soup?
Freeze the broth separately from the wontons for the best texture. Freeze uncooked wontons in a single layer until firm, then transfer them to a sealed container and cook them from frozen in the broth.
Does wonton soup contain common allergens?
It often contains wheat in the wrappers and may contain egg, soya, sesame or shellfish depending on the dough, filling and broth. If you are cooking it yourself, check every ingredient; restaurant recipes can differ.
How much sodium is in wonton soup?
A typical bowl of about 223 g contains roughly 905 mg of sodium. Broth and dipping sauces can be salty, so use a lower-salt stock and add sauces at the table if you want more control.
