It's easy to make your own wonton wrappers.

INGREDIENTS:

1 egg*

3/4 tsp salt

2 c all-purpose flour*

1/3-1/2 c water, as needed

Extra flour as needed

METHODS:

Lightly beat the egg with the salt.

Add 1/4 cup water.

Sift the flour into a large bowl.

Make a well in the middle and add the egg and water mixture.

Mix in with the flour.

(Add as much of the remaining water as necessary to form a dough.

Add more water than the recipe calls for if the dough is too dry).

Form the dough into a ball and knead for about 5 minutes,

or until it forms a smooth, workable dough.

Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.

Roll out until very thin, and cut into 3 1/2-inch squares.

Store in a plastic bag in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to use.

*Notes:

Earthbound Farm organic cabbage, carrots, green onions, and garlic.

Fresh Direct organic red pepper and cilantro.

Eden organic sesame oil

Eden organic brown rice vinegar.

Kikkoman organic soy sauce.

Napa Valley organic canola oil.

Organic Valley organic extra large brown eggs.

What is the difference between Wontons and Spring Rolls? Are spring

roll wrappers made from rice flour? This looks like a good recipe.
