Ingredients

2 cups All purpose flour
1 tablespoon Cornstarch
½ teaspoon Salt
1 cup Boiling hot water

Extra for dusting:

2 tablespoons All purpose flour (Extra for dusting, can use more or less)

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Put 2 cups of all purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and ½ teaspoon of salt in a container, then mix it well.
Pour the flour mixture from step 1 into an electric mixer (I use Bosch mixer).
Turn on the lowest setting #1. Pour 1 cup of hot boiling water slowly into the Bosch electric mixer. (Be careful pouring the hot water.)
Next, cover the lid and turn the speed to medium high #3 for 5 minutes or until the dough comes together.
Take the dough out from the mixer and dust some flour if it’s too sticky.
Roll the dough into a long shape.
After that, cut the dough into 24 pieces.
The following step, take a piece of dough and sprinkle some flour.
Use a rolling pin to flatten the dough.
After, use a circle shape mold press on the flat dough to cut out a circle. (You can use a circle cup or a lid.)
Repeat steps 8-10 many times to make around 38 wrappers. *** Tips: before using the dumpling wrappers I recommend rolling them again to flatten out and make it thinner before wrapping potstickers.

Notes

Cooking tips for how to make homemade potsticker wrappers:

Remember to use hot boiling water.
I use a jar lid to cut the wrappers. In fact, you can use anything that is circle shaped like a cup will work as well.
Before using the potsticker wrappers, I recommend rolling them again to flatten out and make it thinner. Hence, it will help you wrap the dumplings better.
Double the recipe if needed because this amount makes around 38 wrappers.
