To freeze wontons, place them uncooked on a baking sheet. Freeze, then store in a zip-top plastic bag for up to 2 weeks. Add them, still frozen, to the simmering broth. To add a little spice, sprinkle with crushed red pepper.
== Ingredients ==
* 4 cups spinach leaves
* 3/4 cup cooked dark-meat chicken (about 1/2 pound skinless, boneless thighs)
* 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
* 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
* 3/4 teaspoon chopped peeled fresh ginger
* 3/4 teaspoon dark sesame oil
* 2 garlic cloves, chopped
* 1 teaspoon salt, divided
* 36 wonton wrappers
* 1 large egg white, lightly beaten
* 2 teaspoons cornstarch
* 8 cups White Chicken Stock
* Crushed red pepper (optional)
== Directions ==
# Place first 7 ingredients in a food processor; add 1/2 teaspoon salt. 
# Pulse until coarsely chopped.
# Working with 1 wonton wrapper at a time (cover remaining wrapper with a damp towel to prevent drying), spoon about 1 teaspoon chicken mixture into center of wrapper.
# Moisten edges of wrapper with egg white; bring 2 opposite corners to center, pinching points to seal.
# Bring remaining 2 corners to center, pinching points to seal.
# Pinch 4 edges together to seal.
# Place wonton on a baking sheet sprinkled with cornstarch.
# Repeat procedure with remaining wrappers, chicken mixture, and egg white.
# Refrigerate 20 minutes.
# Bring stock to a simmer over medium heat; add 1/2 teaspoon salt.
# Add wontons; cook 4 minutes or until wontons float to top, stirring gently.
# Sprinkle with crushed red pepper, if desired.
