It is fun to play around with wontons. There are so many ways to use them and to be creative. My newest versions are Cream Cheese and Lox Wontons and Pizza Wontons. (photos below)
Here is a video explaining how to fill and cook videos. Rather than write this over, each time, a new wonton comes along, refer to this or other videos for step by step, non-threatening way to put them together.
This video shows you how to make cream cheese wontons. To make a Brooklyn Special, shred lox and mix in with the cream cheese. Follow video directions and you have just made a more interesting wonton.
Pizza wontons can be made with your favorite fillings. I used a little tomato sauce with chopped green peppers and onions. Think about your favorite pizza topping and fill your wonton with it and voila, your favorite pizza wonton.
There is so much flexibility here. If you want amounts, let me know.

ReplyDeleteI played with wontons years ago and have forgotten how good they can be. I really like the lox idea. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteHey there wonton warrior!! I love this idea -- I've never thought about making wontons with different kinds of flavors, what a delicious awesome post.
ReplyDeleteYou are the wonton queen, Chaya! These look seriously amazing. I've been meaning to make them since your post about chicken pot pie wontons (also fabulous!)...adding wontons to my grocery list now! :)
ReplyDeleteHi! I saw you on the Friday Potluck and had to check out your recipe. I love wontons...and just about anything packed into them! I can see some serious Thanksgiving leftover possibilities ;)

I love using wonton wrappers - I often use them for ravioli instead of making fresh pasta. I recently did a post for some wontons filled with figs and blue cheese, and now I really have to try your salmon and cream cheese idea. Love the pizza filling one too - that's a great idea.

These look like a lot of fun to make, but even more to eat! I think my favorite would be the cream cheese wonton. I can see the kids adding all kinds of stuff to theirs.
