Almond Flour Wonton Wrappers Recipes

WONTON WRAPPERS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, beat the egg. Mix in the water.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center of the mixture and slowly pour in the egg and water. Mix well. If the mixture is too dry, increase the amount of water one teaspoon at a time until a pliable dough has formed.
• On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough until elastic. Cut dough into two separate balls. Cover the balls with a damp cloth for a minimum of 10 minutes.
• Cut each ball into four equal pieces. Roll the pieces into 10 1/2 by 10 1/2 inch squares. Cut each into nine 3 1/2 by 3 1/2 inch squares. Use in any recipe that calls for wonton wrappers.

GLUTEN FREE WONTON WRAPPER RECIPE

Steps:

• Whisk together flour and salt in a small bowl; in a separate bowl combine the eggs and water. Slowly stir the egg mixture into the flour with a fork and mix until a sticky dough forms. Divide the dough in half and cover one half while working with the other. Prepare a clean counter or pastry mat by generously flouring with more gluten free flour. Flour a rolling pin as well, then turn one half of the dough out onto the floured mat and roll gently in each direction until the dough is evenly thinned, almost so thin you can see through it. Measure 4 ½ - 5 inch squares and cut with a pastry cutter or butter knife. Layer each square on top of each other on a plate and cover with a damp tea towel while preparing the remaining dough. Re-roll the dough scraps to create more wrappers, so that all the dough is used to make approximately 10 wonton wrappers. Use wrappers in your recipe before they dry out, or cover and refrigerate for 3-5 days until ready to use in your recipe. They will get somewhat more fragile with refrigeration, so bring to room temperature before rolling and spritz with more water if necessary. Makes 10 wonton wrappers; recipe is easily doubled.

PORK AND SHRIMP WONTON

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Process half of the shrimp and all the pork, ginger and seasonings in a food processor .
• Roughly chop the remaining shrimp and transfer to a medium bowl. Add the spring onions and the mixture from the processor to the bowl. Fold together to combine.
• Put 1 teaspoon of filling onto the center of the wonton wrapper and use your fingers to gently close the wrapper tightly. You can brush a little bit of water onto the edges to help the wrappers seal and stay closed. Sprinkle a thin layer of flour on a large plate. Place the wontons on the plate as you finish forming them.
• Bring a pot of water (or broth) to a boil. Drop in the wontons in batches and cook until they float to the top, about 5 minutes.

WONTON WRAPPERS

Steps:

• Mix the salt and the flour.
• In a small bowl, add 1/4 cup water to the egg and beat gently.
• Make a well in the middle of the flour, and add the egg-water mixture.
• Mix into the flour, adding remaining water as needed.
• Knead the dough into a ball.
• Keep kneading until smooth (several minutes).
• Place the dough in a large bowl, cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 1 hour.
• Cut the dough into quarters.
• Place one of the quarters on a well-floured surface, and roll out with a rolling pin until very thin.
• Cut the dough into the desired shapes (usually squares or circles).
• If stacking, dust the wrappers lightly with flour or cornstarch to keep them from sticking together.
• Keep cut wrappers covered with plastic wrap to keep them from drying out too much.
• Repeat with the other quarters.
• If not using immediately, wrap in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator or freezer.
