Luckily it is easy to do this at home by mixing baking soda into water and letting the shrimp
soak overnight before using them. Once you have the shrimp prepared the wonton filling is actually pretty easy consisting of the coarsely chopped shrimp and a few light seasonings to make sure that the shrimp shines through and is the star of the show. Assembling the wontons takes a bit of time but it is actually pretty easy once you get going and it is well worth the effort! Once the wontons are assembled you simply boil them in water until they float, assemble the soup and enjoy!
