Best Dumpling Wrappers to Buy in the UK

Round wrappers suit gyoza and potstickers, while square wonton wrappers suit soup dumplings and wontons, so check the shape matches your recipe before buying. Fresh, chilled wrappers give a better texture than frozen if your shop stocks them.

FAQ

Can I freeze dumpling wrappers?

Yes, unused wrappers freeze well, thaw in the fridge overnight and keep them covered so they do not dry out.

Are gyoza and wonton wrappers interchangeable?

Roughly, though the shape changes the fold. Round works better for pleated dumplings, square suits a folded triangle or purse shape.
