Many years ago, I ate wontons outside for the first time. The shop’s sign was named Shanghai wontons. In fact, I think wontons are not much different from dumplings, but the method of making them is different. However, some seaweed and dried shrimp skin are added to the soup, which is quite delicious. In my home, cooking dumplings is always simple, just add some light soy sauce and vinegar, which is simple and convenient. You can pack more wontons and freeze them in the refrigerator during weekend breaks, and then cook them in the morning on weekdays.

4. Add a little oil to the pot so that the wontons or dumplings do not stick together easily.

Tips:

1. If it is a quick-frozen wonton, it does not need to be thawed, just take it out of the refrigerator temporarily while cooking.
2. The seasoning is up to your liking, and you can also add some vegetables, if there is a broth, it is better.
3. After the wontons are placed, the water is boiled. Don't rush to open the lid. After simmering for two or three minutes, open the lid and add cold water, then cover and cook. Open the lid as soon as it is boiled, the wontons are not easy to cook, and it takes a little longer. Generally, let it simmer for two or three minutes before opening the lid, and just add cold water once. But it shouldn’t be cooked for too long, it will boil bad.
