Frequently Asked Cooking Questions
- → What kind of lobster meat should I pick?
Go with cooked lobster, usually from the tail or claws, chopped up fine for tender, tasty filling.
- → Is it okay to make wontons ahead of time?
Sure thing, just put the made wontons in the fridge on a tray covered lightly with plastic wrap. Fry them right before serving so they stay crispy.
- → Which oil works best for frying?
Pick a neutral oil with a high smoke point like canola or vegetable oil to get them nice and golden all over.
- → How do I make sure wontons don’t open while frying?
Wet the edges of the wrap with a little water before folding and press them tight so nothing leaks out during cooking.
- → What dipping sauces go well with these?
Try sweet chili, light soy, or a tangy mustard dip to boost the rich filling’s flavor.
