GF Won Ton Wrappers

Versatile gluten-free won ton wrappers for all your GF won ton needs.

Ingredients:
1 cup all-pupose gluten-free flour
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 extra-large egge and 1 extra-large egg white, beaten together
2 to 4 tablespoons warm water

1. In a medium-siz bowl, combine the flour and xanthan gum. Add the eggs and 2 tablespoons water to the flour mixture and beat together to combine.

2. Press the mixture together with wet hands. It should stick together when pressed, and should have a smooth but stiff consistency. Add more water a tablespoon at a time until it reaches the proper consistency.

3. Separate the dough into two disks. Roll out each disk between two sheets of plastic wrap until they're about 1/8 inch thick. Remove the plastic wrap, dust both sides with more flour, and slice into desired shapes with a sharp knife.

4. When you're using the wrappers, moisten the edgese with a bit of warm water to help them stick together when cinched closed.
