Cooking StepsHow to cook Shrimp Wontons (Make-Ahead Breakfast Prep) step by step
-
Step 1 DetailPrep the ingredients: 1. Rinse the shrimp, squeeze out excess water, and cut into small pieces. 2. Finely chop about 150g celery and squeeze out the water — it adds freshness and crunch. 3. Soak the dried shiitake mushrooms until rehydrated, squeeze out water, and mince. 4. For the scallion-ginger-garlic water: chop or smash a few scallion segments and ginger slices, place in a bowl. Pour in about 80-100ml hot water (70-80°C, not boiling), steep for 10-15 minutes, pressing occasionally. Strain out the solids and keep only the clear infused water. Let it cool before gradually mixing into the filling.
-
Step 2 DetailMix the filling: Add all seasonings to the ground pork and stir vigorously in one direction until it becomes sticky and cohesive. Gradually add the scallion-ginger-garlic water, waiting for each addition to be absorbed before adding more. Then fold in the shrimp pieces and all the chopped vegetables, mixing until evenly combined.
-
Step 3 DetailWrap the wontons using your preferred technique. You can cook them immediately, or lay them flat on a tray to freeze until firm, then transfer to bags for convenient use anytime.
