Wonton dough

4 servings

15 minutes

Wonton dough is the base for exquisite Chinese dumplings that capture the hearts of gourmets worldwide. Light and elastic, it is perfect for forming thin wrappers that hold delicate fillings. Its origins trace back through centuries of Chinese gastronomy, where the art of making wontons became a symbol of family traditions and culinary mastery. The taste of the dough is neutral, but due to its thinness, it gently envelops the filling, allowing it to fully unfold. Wonton dough can be used for boiling, frying, or baking, creating incredibly crispy or tender textures. Whether it's a festive dinner or a cozy family lunch, wonton dough adds authenticity and sophistication to dishes.
