How To Make Wontons (with Guest Chef, Jenny Wang)

You know wontons, those delicious little dumpling-esque things in the soup from your favorite Chinese delivery place. I’d be willing to bet you’ve looked at them in wonderment trying to figure out how to fold them at least once. Well, since Jenny Wang stopped by, I figured I might as well solve that mystery once and for all. From her mom’s wonton filling recipe, to how to fold them and cook them properly, she covers it all.
