Homemade Dumpling Wrappers For Wontons Gyoza Co Recipes

HOMEMADE GYOZA WRAPPERS

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together flour and salt. Then, add water and mix with a wooden spoon/spatula.
• With your hands, start forming dough. It will be hard at the beginning but keep kneading (you can transfer the mixture onto a worktop if it's easier for you). It will take about 5-7 minutes to knead into a ball. The dough will be flaky at first, but it just needs more kneading (like you can see on the process photos).
• When ready, place it in a plastic bag or cover in plastic wrap and let rest for 15 minutes (or longer) on your kitchen counter.
• Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces. Put one piece back in the bag. Roll the other half until thin. You should not need a lot of flour for dusting. (Instructions for authentic way of rolling gyoza dumplings are in the post above this recipe card)
• Fill, fold and cook using your favorite method or freeze for later use!
• Enjoy!

HOMEMADE DUMPLING WRAPPERS FOR WONTONS, GYOZA & CO

Steps:

• *Note: Check out the recipe video + step-by-step guide above for visual instruction!
• Whisk together the flour and salt in a bowl. Pour in the hot water and mix with chopsticks until the liquid has been absorbed by the flour. Place the dough on a working surface and knead with your hands for about 3-5 minutes until a smooth and soft dough forms. Then form the dough into a ball, wrap it tightly in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes. (If making gluten-free dough continue with the next step immediately; do not chill it).
• After the chill time, divide the dough into 2 or 4 pieces and wrap each piece in cling foil again. Start with one piece at a time and put the others back in the refrigerator to prevent them from drying out. Roll one piece out on a lightly floured work surface to be about 2 mm thick.
• To make wonton wrappers, cut out squares with a pizza cutter (approx. 3"x3", 7.5x7.5-cm). Or to make gyoza wrappers, cut out circles, using a round glass or cookie cutter (approx. 3-4", 8-10-cm diameter). Use leftover dough to cut out more wrappers. Then fill and fold however you like (or stack them up for later use*).
• Remove the next dough portion from the refrigerator and repeat this process to make more wrappers.
