Start by adding all the dumpling ingredients into a bowl. Be sure to reserve some of the green onions for the stock and topping for finished soup.
Making dumplings following the folding directions on wrap package. Use the beaten egg and tbsp of water to as an egg wash to seal the edges. Place dumplings on a plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper and cover with damp paper towel until ready to cook.
Combine all stock ingredients in a large stock pot and bring to a boil.
Gently drop in desired amount of dumplings per person (usually 6-8 per person -- usually). Cook for 6 - 8 min or until they all are floating.
