Storing Wontons

• • Leftover cooked wontons will last up to 4 days stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. To reheat, microwave for 2-3 minutes until hot or reboil in water until hot throughout.

• • Cooked wontons can be frozen for up to 3 months. Let them cool down completely and store them in a single layer in a freezer-safe bag resting on a baking sheet. Squeeze out any excess air in the bag before sealing and freeze. After the wontons are frozen, remove the baking sheet. To reheat, re-boil them in water in a pot on medium-high heat until hot throughout.

• • Uncooked wontons can be frozen for up to 4-6 months. Place a freezer-safe bag flat on a baking sheet. Place wontons in a single layer into the bag giving each one enough space. Seal the bag removing any excess out and place the baking sheet with the bag into your freezer. This prevents the uncooked wontons from sticking to one another as they freeze. Once they've been frozen for 1 hour, remove the baking sheet.

Cooking Frozen Wontons

• To deep fry frozen wontons: heat 3 inches of neutral oil in a large pan on medium heat and fry the wontons in small batches for 3-5 minutes until golden brown. Remove and transfer fried wontons to a wire rack or paper towel lined plate to remove excess oil.
• To air fry frozen wontons: pre-heat the air fryer to 350 F and lightly spray the air fryer basket with neutral oil. Place the frozen wontons in a single layer and do not overlap. Lightly spray oil over the wontons and air fryer for 6-10 minutes or more until crispy and the internal temperature is 140 F with a digital instant read thermometer.
• To boil frozen wontons: Bring a pot of water to boil on medium-high heat. Boil wontons in small batches for 2-4 minutes until they float and are cooked in the center.
