I can see why he would get homesick and make these. They truly taste like something someone's grandmother would make- I just can't believe that now I can make them too! I had left over filling so I used it to fill some left-over wraps I had from a different recipe and steamed them as well as made some fried wontons. We loved all the ways! I'm not sure what the finished product was supposed to look like but I sure can say that they tasted wonderful. Thanks Coasty. Made for ZWT 6 by an Unruly.
