Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup boiling water
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch for dusting

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Rolling pin
  • Flour for dusting
  • Knife or pizza cutter
  • Plastic wrap

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Stir them together until well mixed.
  2. Carefully pour the boiling water into the flour mixture.
  3. Using a fork or chopsticks, mix the ingredients until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
  6. After resting, divide the dough into four equal pieces. Roll one piece out as thinly as possible on a floured surface.
  7. Cut the rolled-out dough into squares, about 3 inches by 3 inches.
  8. Dust the cut wrappers with cornstarch to prevent sticking. Stack them in a pile and cover with plastic wrap until ready to use.
