  • W can handle my eggrolls anyday.

  • ketchup comes from Chinese: "ketsiap"

    orginally in china made from pickled fish. it caught on in malaysia where it was called "ketchap" Dutch and English sailors came to the Far East in 17th century they discovered the sauce and brought some back with them. the first cookbook that had a recipe for ketchup had no tomatos in it at all. not till 1876 did Teresa Heinz Kerry's great-great-greats started selling a thin, salty verison called: tomato ketchup.

  • "put on the glove for your protection". "approach the potsticker from behind" . lol

  • check out our comedy sketches

  • This is gonna sound weird but everytime my mom makes homemaded fried chicken we almost always have homemade won-tons with them. We suck at folding them though so often they turn into little envolopes. But they're good eats! Fried chicken, fried wontons and a cold fanta.

    My favorite summer comfort food.

  • Alton's filling is weird...

  • Potstickers are my favorite food. I could eat so many of them.

  • A good potsticker is one of the world's greatest pleasures. A bad potsticker...is one of the world's greatest pleasures. :)

  • @BrianAndBethany I make wonton soup regularly. I have never seen anyone put ketchup and mustard in them. I have never seen another recipe calling for them. Frankly, the thought of ketchup in a wonton turns my stomach.

  • Use a FULL TEASPOON of the stuff. I used a full and I still used the whole pack of wontons. I love Alton Brown, but that guy is notorious for being off on his measurements. These are the best I have ever eaten.

  • @cajal6 Simple ingredients that are in your pantry? Why not. Make these things and tell me they arent awesome. Spoiler: They are the best wontons I ever had hands down.
