INSTRUCTIONS
Wonton Broth 1. Clean the pork bones. Add water to a stock pot with 1 teaspoon of salt, take it to a boil with high heat. Add pork bones and boil for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse the pork bones with cold water, rubbing off all residue from the bones.

2. Meanwhile, soak the dried
   shrimp in water for about 20 minutes. Then drain.
3. In a clean stock pot, add
   water, pork bones, ginger, jicama, dried shrimp, salt and mushroom powder. Take it to a boil on high heat.
4. Reduce the heat to medium
   low and simmer for 1 12 hours up to 3 hours (for maximum flavor). Skim off any fat and residue from the top of the broth with a ladle.

5. Boil wontons for about 6 minutes. Cooked wontons will float to the top of the water. Use a spider strainer to scoop the wontons out.
