Questions about Wonton wrappers
How do you stop wonton wrappers drying out while you fold them?
Keep the stack under a barely damp, clean tea towel and take out only a few wrappers at a time. Seal the edges with a fingertip dipped in water, pressing out any trapped air.
Can you bake wonton wrappers instead of frying them?
Yes. Brush them lightly with oil, shape them in a mini muffin tin if you want cups, and bake at 180 °C for about 6–8 minutes until crisp and golden; watch closely because the thin edges brown quickly.
How do you cook wontons without them falling apart?
Bring a pan of water to a gentle simmer rather than a vigorous boil, then add the wontons in batches. Cook fresh wontons for about 3–5 minutes, until they float and the filling is cooked through; lift them out with a slotted spoon.
Can you freeze wonton wrappers?
Yes. Freeze them in their original sealed pack, or separate small stacks with baking paper and wrap them airtight. Defrost in the fridge, still wrapped, so condensation does not make the wrappers sticky.
What can you make with wonton wrappers besides wontons?
Use them for crisp baked cups filled with prawns or vegetables, or layer them in place of pasta sheets in a quick lasagne. They also make small samosas or ravioli-style parcels; seal the edges well so the filling stays in.
What can you use instead of wonton wrappers?
For boiled or steamed parcels, use thin dumpling wrappers; for fried parcels, spring-roll pastry cut into squares works well. The texture and cooking time differ, so cook until the pastry is tender or crisp as intended.
Are wonton wrappers the same as wonton pastry?
They are very similar thin wheat-based sheets used to wrap fillings. The names can refer to slightly different products, so compare the pack’s shape and thickness: thicker pastry may need a little longer to cook.
Do wonton wrappers contain egg or gluten?
Many are made with wheat flour and egg, but recipes differ: check the ingredient list for the specific pack. Wheat makes them unsuitable for people avoiding gluten, and egg-containing wrappers are not suitable for someone with an egg allergy.
