Wonton wrappers

Wonton wrappers are thin sheets of dough used to enclose fillings in wontons and related dumplings. They are commonly pale, smooth, and square, though shape and thickness vary. The dough is generally made from wheat flour and water, often with additional ingredients such as egg or salt depending on the recipe or product.

Wrappers are sold fresh or refrigerated, and sometimes frozen. They become pliable when handled and turn tender or pleasantly chewy when cooked; frying can make them crisp. They are an uncooked dough product, distinct from cooked wontons and from ready-made fried wonton strips.
