Sichuan Pork Wontons (Chao Shou)

Servesabout 40 wontons
Method

Steps

  1. Mix pork, cornstarch, sherry, soy, wine, garlic, and ginger in a bowl. Working with 1 wrapper at a time, place 1/2 tbsp. filling in center, brush edges with egg, and fold in half, forming a triangle; overlap opposite corners, brushing with egg to seal together. Repeat with remaining wrappers and pork mixture; set aside.
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil over high heat; working in batches, cook wontons until firm and cooked through, 5–7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain, and place in a bowl; season with salt and toss with red chile oil and vinegar. Serve additional red chile oil and vinegar on the side, if you like.
