Learn how to wrap (fold) wontons with video and step by step picture tutorial.

Tips before starting wrapping wontons at home.

  1. Always keep the wonton skin covered so they will not dry out in the air.
  2. Mind the size of your filling and avoid big wontons. We recommend around 1 teaspoon of filling.
