Three-Fresh Wontons

Three-fresh wontons take their name from a filling of fresh pork, dried shrimp and pickled mustard tuber, served in a pork-bone broth garnished with shredded dried tofu and egg crepe. The wrappers are thin, the filling generous, the soup clear and savory.

The dish arose among villagers in the Dongting area of Xishan and gradually became a traditional Wuxi specialty, widely popularized by brands such as Wangxingji.

Eaten hot, wontons and broth together, as a breakfast or light meal; frequently ordered alongside Wuxi soup dumplings as a classic pairing.

Its hallmark is the three-flavor filling and the clear pork-bone broth, making it one of the most beloved everyday snacks in Wuxi.
