💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Seal wonton edges with a cornstarch slurry (1 tsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water) instead of plain water because the starch creates a stronger bond that won't break apart in hot consommé.technique1:2 ratio cornstarch to water
- ✓Keep your consommé at 185-190°F for cooking wontons because boiling at 212°F creates too much agitation and tears the delicate wrappers.timing185-190°F
- ✓Dice mozzarella into 1/4-inch cubes and freeze for 15 minutes before wrapping so the cheese holds its shape and doesn't leak out during cooking.ingredient1/4-inch cubes, 15 minutes
- ✓Use a small offset spatula or bench scraper to remove wontons from consommé because regular spoons can puncture the softened wrappers and cause filling to spill.equipment
