and if you dont like shrimp
4 ounces flour
Salt
1 tablespoon milk
2 tablespoons oil
1 small egg
4 ounces fresh spinach, chopped
4 ounces crumbled firm tofu
1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon powdered ginger
5 cups broth
2 tablespoons chopped chives (or I chop up fresh green onions)
In bowl, stir together flour and salt. Add milk, oil and egg.
Knead dough until it is smooth. On a floured board, roll out dough
until it is paper thin. Cut into 3-inch squares. Cover with a
kitchen towel while you prepare filling.
Thoroughly wash spinach; remove coarse stems. Place in bowl and
barely cover with boiling water; let stand for 3 minutes. Drain
well and coarsely chop. Add tofu, soy sauce and ginger. Blend
thoroughly. Place 1 teaspoon of filling on each dough square;
giving filling a lengthy shape. Fold over dough from one side and
roll up jelly-roll fashion. Press ends of roll together to seal.
Bring broth to a boil. Add won tons and simmer over low heat for
20 minutes. Spoon soup into bowls. Garnish with chopped chives
(or green onions). Makes 6 servings.
