Ratings:
****Restaurant
Quality!- would
make it again. "These were restaurant quality ALL THE
WAY!! The recipe looked like a challenge, and I took it on.
The preparation picture demo page was helpful in figuring out how to
wrap the won tons. Although time consuming, they were not too
difficult to make (I had never made won tons before) and they were
absolutely delicious. My husband's poker party friends labeled me
as a 'goddess' for serving these to them during their game!"
