Wonton Soup

Sometimes called "skins," wonton wrappers are often available in the produce aisle of supermarkets. Look for them next to egg-roll wrappers and tofu. Those found in Asian markets (either in the refrigerated section or in the freezer) may be more fragile than the others.

    These were killer!!!! I did everything exactly as the recipe said (because I'm a big nerd.) Next time I'll try chopping up shrimp for some, and maybe a batch with ground chicken. I used finely chopped Napa....I don't think coleslaw would have been quite right?
