Ingredients
  

For the Wontons:

  • 1¼ cups all purpose flour (150g)
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • ¼ cup chopped cabbage
  • 1 tbsp. grated ginger
  • 1 clove grated garlic
  • ¼ lb. ground pork
  • 2 tsp. white wine
  • 4 tsp. soy sauce
  • 1 chopped scallion
  • 1 tsp. sesame oil

For the Chicken Soup:

  • 2 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp. each rice wine vinegar and light soy sauce
  • ¼ tsp. each red pepper flakes, sugar, ground ginger
  • 1 cup each quartered baby squash and thinly sliced carrots

For the Garnishes:

  • ¼ cup sliced scallions
  • ¼ cup sliced fresno peppers
  • ¼ cup cilantro leaves

Instructions
 

  • Begin by making the wonton dough: In a large bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Add the eggs and stir until a dough forms. Add one to two tablespoons of water if the dough is too dry. Dump the mixture on to a floured board and knead the dough for 10 minutes.
  • Cover the dough loosely with a floured cloth and let it rest for thirty minutes. Meanwhile, make the filling by combining in a food processor: the cabbage, 1 tsp. of ginger, the garlic, pork, wine, 1 tsp. of the soy sauce, the scallions, and the sesame oil. Pulse until everything is minced together.
  • Divide the dough in half, and roll each half out as thinly as possible. Use a three inch sharp cookie cutter to cut about 30 circles. On each dumpling, place a teaspoon of filling. Wet the edges with water, and fold the circle in half. Bring the two points together to form a wonton and seal with a dab of water. Repeat with rest of dumplings, placing them on a floured tray.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and cook the dumplings for about 12 minutes on a low boil.
  • Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, heat the butter and cook the mushrooms until they're brown. Then add the rest of the soup ingredients and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Drain the wontons and serve with the soup. Top each bowl with the garnishes.
