Tips

Wonton wrappers are thinner than dumpling wrappers—seal them carefully, as applying too much pressure can cause them to tear.

Steps

1. Prepare the filling10 min
Mix the ground pork, the peeled and chopped shrimp, the scallions, the ginger, the soy sauce, the sesame oil, and the salt.
2. Fill the wontons20 min
Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each wonton wrapper, moisten the edges, and fold into a triangle or pouch shape, sealing it tightly.
3. Heat the broth5 min
Bring the chicken broth to a simmer.
4. Cook the wontons5 min
Boil the wontons in a separate pot of salted water, or directly in the broth, until they float to the surface, about 5 minutes. Make sure the center of the filling reaches 71°C (160°F) before serving.
5. Finish and serve5 min
Add the spinach to the broth briefly to wilt it, serve the broth with the wontons, and garnish with chives.

Substitutions & variations

Don't have shrimp? You can make the filling using only ground pork, in the same total amount.
Do you prefer bok choy instead of spinach? You can substitute it in the same amount—it will just take a couple more minutes to soften in the broth.
