- Moisten your finger tip with water and moisten the top edges of the wonton wrapper.

- These are great as is, hot, room temp, cold... plain, with sweet and sour sauce or what I call Filipino Table Sauce (for lack of a better name)
- My x-MIL used to serve this sauce with lumpia, pork chops, steaks, and lots of stuff. It's pretty much adobo sauce.
- Equal parts soy sauce & vinegar with a clove or two of minced garlic.
- It's has a very pungent flavor. I LOVE it!!
- Enjoy!
