A classic Cantonese noodle soup featuring flavorful pork and shrimp wontons in a clear, savory broth, garnished with fresh green onions and a drizzle of sesame oil.
**Prepare the Wonton Filling:** In a small bowl, combine ground pork, chopped shrimp, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, grated ginger, minced garlic, white pepper, and salt. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
**Assemble the Wontons:** Place a small spoonful of the filling in the center of each wonton wrapper. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with water. Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing out any air. Bring the two bottom corners of the triangle together and press to seal, creating a wonton shape. Repeat until all filling is used.
**Cook the Wontons:** Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Gently drop the wontons into the boiling water. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the wontons float to the surface and are cooked through. Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon and set aside.
**Prepare the Broth:** In the same pot (or a clean pot), bring the chicken broth to a simmer. Season with salt and white pepper to taste.
**Cook the Noodles:** In a seperate pot, cook the egg noodles according to package directions. Drain the noodles and divide them evenly among serving bowls.
**Assemble the Soup:** Ladle the hot chicken broth over the noodles in each bowl. Add 6-8 wontons to each bowl.
**Garnish:** Garnish each bowl with chopped green onions and a drizzle of sesame oil. Serve immediately.
