  • Don't overfill the wontons: If you overfill the wontons, they will be difficult to seal and may break open during cooking. Aim for about 1 tablespoon of filling per wonton.
  • Seal the wontons tightly: To prevent the wontons from opening during cooking, be sure to seal them tightly. You can do this by using a fork to crimp the edges of the wontons or by using a wonton maker.
  • Cook the wontons in a large pot of boiling water: This will help to ensure that the wontons cook evenly. Avoid overcrowding the pot, as this can cause the wontons to stick together and become mushy.
  • Serve the wontons immediately: Wontons are best served immediately after they are cooked. You can serve them with a variety of dipping sauces, such as soy sauce, chili sauce, or vinegar.
