Wonton and Dragonballs Bento

Wontons! That's what my kids shout when they find out I'm making them (see my recipe and method here). The excitement is just as high as with the gyoza. I love packing wontons because I don't have to bother to present them nicely. They're just wrinkly dumplings so all you have to do is squeeze them in however they fit. I think I put 10 in the bottom of this round stainless steel tiffin, along with broccoli, corn, carrot, and a little Okinawan sweet potato flower. In the top tier I arranged some grapes, strawberries, honeydew melon and dragonfruit balls. A few friendly faces make it a happy little bento. Don't you think? ^_^

  2. My kids would love to have wontons for lunch box (not this year, but next year.). I have one question... does it get dry up? Even you pour some sauce or soup, does it stay moist? Just curious if you do any tricks to keep it hydrated.

  5. Nami, the wontons don't dry up. In fact, I'm more concerned about them getting too soggy; if I were to pack soup I'd keep the wontons separate. But since my kids like the wontons as is, I only have to pack them in a sealed bento box and they stay hydrated. By lunchtime they'll be at room temp, which is how my kids like them.

    Did you make them? Heh. Thanks Heather!

    Thanks MommaSays. Hope you like them :)
