You can choose Fuqiang powder or jiaozi powder with high gluten to make wonton skin. You can also add a little alkaline noodles to make the wonton skin smoother. And generally, water is slowly poured into flour and stirred evenly until the flour becomes smooth dough. Then cover the soaked drawer cloth to wake up. After 30 minutes, sprinkle flour on the chopping board, and roll the dough into a thin and even round dough sheet with a rolling pin, about 2mm thick. Pay attention to the continuous sprinkling of flour during rolling to prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin or chopping board.

How to make wonton delicious?

The method of making wonton seems simple, but there are some tips to make it delicious.

The first is to make wonton skin. It is best to use jiaozi powder with high gluten for wonton skin. If you want to make wonton skin smoother, you can add a little alkaline noodles. A little dry dough is good for shaping and can make the wrapped wonton more beautiful.

Followed by stuffing. When making meat stuffing, the ratio of fat to lean meat is preferably 3: 7 or 4: 6. If you don't want to eat fat meat, you can add some vegetable oil, so that it won't taste so firewood.

Finally, boiled wonton. Cook wonton until the water boils, and then put it in the pot. Just wait until the wonton floats up. Don't put too much stuffing because the skin of wonton is thin and easy to rot when cooked for a long time. It will be more delicious to use broth to make soup base and wonton. Of course, it is also delicious to add all kinds of seasonings directly to the clear soup to make the soup base, and then add shrimp skin, mustard tuber, seaweed, shredded egg skin, etc. After taking out the pot, drop sesame oil and sprinkle chives.
