Step 13

13 You can leave the wonton like this for the simplest method, or form a flower-bud shape: Lay the wonton so the triangle is pointed away from you and the “spine

Step 14

14 ” the long edge where the filling sits, is horizontal

23 Strain out the shiitake stems, ginger and scallions

Step 24

24 Taste, and season with more salt or soy sauce, if needed

Step 25

25 Return to low heat, and cover to keep hot

Step 26

26 Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, then carefully slide the wontons into the boiling water and cook until they float and become translucent around the filling, 2 to 3 minutes

Step 27

27 Using a slotted spoon, transfer them to serving bowls, dividing them equally

Step 28

28 Drizzle with a little sesame oil so that they don’t stick to each other

Step 29

29 Ladle the hot soup over the wontons in the bowls, sprinkle with the chopped scallions and serve hot
