- Peel and smash 3 cloves of garlic. Place them in a large pot with the chicken, water and ginger. Bring to a boil and skim any residue from the top of the broth. Reduce heat, cover and simmer slowly for about 2 hrs. Strain broth and season to taste with salt. Throw away chicken bones.
- Skim off fat from the top of the broth (or possibly chill overnight and remove hardened fat).
- While the broth is simmering, chop the remaining garlic clove. Place it in the bowl of a food processor with the shrimp,1/2 Tbsp. green onions, grated ginger, celery, minced carrot, sherry, stir-fry sauce, cornstarch and sesame oil. Pulse the food processor till a moderately fine texture is achieved. The mix shouldn't be a smooth puree.
- Lay the won ton wrappers on a clean counter. Brush the edges of each wrapper with a little beaten egg. Place a rounded tsp. of filling in the center of each wrapper. Bring all 4 corners of the wrappers together above the filling and healthy pinch together firmly. Place on a paper towel-lined plate, cover and refrigeratetill ready to use. This should make at least 30 won tons. Make ahead and freeze if you like.
- To assemble the soup, bring the chicken broth to a boil in a large pot and gently add in the won tons. Slowly simmer for 5 to 8 min or possibly till the shrimp is cooked and the wrappers are tender. About 2 min after adding the won tons, add in the julienned carrot, bok choy, shiitake mushrooms and snow peas.
- Divide soup and won tons among 6 soup bowls. Garnish with the remaining 3 Tbsp. sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
- Note: Low-sodium canned chicken broth can be substituted for the chicken and water, but be sure to simmer with the ginger and garlic for at least 30 to 45 min.
- Note: To toast seeds, heat in a dry skillet over medium heat till they start to brown. Stir occasionally. Be careful not to burn.
