Ingredients
  

  • 1¼ cups all purpose flour
  • 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
  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 2 cups chopped baby corn, snow peas, peppers, and baby squash

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. 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 stock, vegetables, and the rest of the soy sauce and ginger until simmering.
  • Drain the wontons and serve with the soup. You can add some red pepper flakes, sesame oil, and scallions as garnish.
