Spicy wontons, spicy dumplings

Based on imagination, what would you do when you want spicy wontons? Either you prepare a spicy filling for these dumplings or you dip them in some spicy condiment. Or would you have done the same - adding these boiled and cooked wontons into a Korean spicy broth - soon dubu ?

This time, I made the Korean spicy broth with added tofu and nori/seaweed, without the seafood. When the soup/stew is cooked, and before turning off heat, added some boiled wontons in the broth and stir gently for 1min. Turn off heat, and serve immediately.

How was it ?


Success. Delicious. A burst of flavors as soon as you bite into the juicy wontons and the spicy broth liquid rush into those biten "pockets".

    They look great. I think I personally would prefer a spicy dipping sauce. Perhaps a wasabi mayo or wasabi and soy sauce. I really love wasabi and the brief, yet intense, spice it offers.

    I always keep some frozen vegetable dumplings on hand -- making spicy broth or dipping sauce is much easier than making dumplings from scratch. And because the flavor of the dumplings can be very bland, I get to make super-spicy sauces.

    kelly, personally I don't really like wasabi.

    big boys oven, not too bad, not TOO spicy.

    lydia, hahah, I have a habit of keeping some frozen dumplings on hand recently.
    I agree that the blander dumplings are perfect with spicy sauces or broth. :)

    I think I would do the same as well - to make the soup hot. What's more, I may make some chilly soy sauce to dip the wontons... Mmm...
