Yields:
15 wontons or 3 or 4 servings of wonton soup.
Seasonings:
- 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon corn starch
- 1/4 teaspoon fish sauce
- 3 dashes white pepper
- Pinch of salt
Ingredients:

- 8 oz peeled and deveined big shrimp

Rinse
the shrimp and pat dry with paper towels and then cut each shrimp into 3-4
pieces. Add
half of the chopped yellow chives into the shrimp and marinate with the
seasonings for 1 hour.
Place a
wonton wrapper on your palm and put about 1 teaspoon (about 3-4 pieces of the
shrimp) filling in the center of the wonton wrapper. Gather the corners of the
wrapper with the other hand and pinch in the middle to “seal” the wonton. Make
