GLUTEN FREE WONTON WRAPPER RECIPE



Gluten Free Wonton Wrapper Recipe image

Provided by Jules Shepard

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup gfJules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
¼ tsp. sea salt
1 egg + 1 egg white
2 Tbs. water

Steps:

  • Whisk together flour and salt in a small bowl; in a separate bowl combine the eggs and water. Slowly stir the egg mixture into the flour with a fork and mix until a sticky dough forms. Divide the dough in half and cover one half while working with the other. Prepare a clean counter or pastry mat by generously flouring with more gluten free flour. Flour a rolling pin as well, then turn one half of the dough out onto the floured mat and roll gently in each direction until the dough is evenly thinned, almost so thin you can see through it. Measure 4 ½ - 5 inch squares and cut with a pastry cutter or butter knife. Layer each square on top of each other on a plate and cover with a damp tea towel while preparing the remaining dough. Re-roll the dough scraps to create more wrappers, so that all the dough is used to make approximately 10 wonton wrappers. Use wrappers in your recipe before they dry out, or cover and refrigerate for 3-5 days until ready to use in your recipe. They will get somewhat more fragile with refrigeration, so bring to room temperature before rolling and spritz with more water if necessary. Makes 10 wonton wrappers; recipe is easily doubled.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 3/4 cups gluten-free flour
3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/4 cup modified tapioca starch, expandex
3 eggs, room temperature
4 -6 tablespoons warm water, 85 degrees F

  • Dough should be smooth and pliable. If not, add some more water. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
  • Work with 1/2 the dough at a time. Wrap the other half tightly to prevent drying out. Use GF flour to lightly flour work surface.
  • Roll out to 1/4" thick, sprinkling with GF as needed to prevent sticking.
  • Use as you would regular wonton wrappers.
  • To freeze extras, stack between waxed paper and put in freezer proof container.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor or blender to make the dough. This will save you time and effort, and it will also help to ensure that the dough is smooth and consistent.
  • If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can make the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it for at least 10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before using it. This will help the dough to relax and become more pliable, which will make it easier to work with.
  • When rolling out the dough, be sure to use a lightly floured surface. This will prevent the dough from sticking to the surface and tearing.
  • If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour. Just be careful not to add too much flour, or the dough will become dry and brittle.
  • To make wontons, simply cut the dough into small squares and fill them with your favorite filling. Then, fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges to seal.
  • Wontons can be cooked in a variety of ways. You can boil them, steam them, or fry them.

Making gluten-free wonton wrappers is a great way to enjoy this delicious Asian dish without the gluten. With a little practice, you can easily make wonton wrappers that are just as good as the traditional kind. So next time you're in the mood for wontons, give this recipe a try.
