Hong Kong-style shrimp wonton
The wonton uploaded today is very popular among foreigners in restaurants run by Hong Kong people overseas. I remember that when I worked in a restaurant, foreigners went to Chinese restaurants to eat. In addition to ordering Yangzhou fried rice, spring rolls, and sweet and sour pork, they must order ShrimpWontonSoup. The ingredients and packaging method of this wonton are different from the ones we usually make ourselves at home. If you are interested, you can take a look at the step chart.
