Sweet And Salty Mushroom Wontons

TB toasted sesame oil

shallot

salt

TB minced garlic

maitake mushroom, base discarded

oyster mushroom tops, tough ends discarded

mirin,

chives

TB sesame oil

tsp grated ginger

garlic

TB rice vinegar

TB hoisin

agave

soy sauce

sesame seeds,

Warm the toasted sesame oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat.

Add in the shallots and add a few pinches of salt. Stir to coat and saute for a few minutes or until they develop a slight golden color.

Deglaze the pan with a little water or mirin, then add garlic and saute for 1-2 minutes more.

Add the mushrooms to the pot and stir to combine. Allow the mushrooms to slightly collapse and develop a little color, about 5 minutes.

Remove from the heat and stir in the chives while still warm. Set aside to cool completely before assembling the wontons.

To make the wonton filling

In a small saucepan, warm the sesame oil over medium-low heat.

Add the grated ginger and saute for about a minute.

Add the garlic and saute for a minute or two more, ensuring it doesn&#8217;t burn.

Add in the rest of the ingredients and stir.

Turn up the heat and allow it to simmer gently for 5 to 7 minutes, or until it&#8217;s slightly reduced.

To make the sweet and salty sauce

Prepare &amp; Fill

Place a wonton wrapper in your hand, aligning it with your palm. Add a teaspoon of filling to the center. Moisten the wrapper&#8217;s edges with water for sealing.

Fold

Fold the wrapper in half to form a rectangle, ensuring the edges meet. Seal by pressing firmly, eliminating any air pockets. Moisten one of the rectangle&#8217;s bottom corners.

Seal

Bring the two bottom corners together beneath the filling, slightly overlapping them. Press to seal firmly.

Freeze

Once assembled, lay them on a baking sheet lined with a silpat. Use them immediately or place them into the freezer until frozen, then transfer to a ziploc bag or container until ready.

To assemble the wontons

Bring a large pot of water to a small boil. Add the wontons in small batches, stopping when the boil disappears.

Allow to simmer for a few minutes, then transfer to plates with a skimmer.

To cook the wontons

Serve the wontons with the sauce, topping with sesame seeds, if desired.
