But making the wrappers was always my dad's job 'cos it was such hard work rolling out the dough. Until we discovered that you could use a pasta machine to roll the dough. Just take a large chunk of dough (enough for about 5 wrappers) and put it through the pasta machine on thinner and thinner settings until you get it to the right thickness (2 on our pasta machine). You will have a long thin strip of dough that you can lay out on the counter and use a large glass (or cookie cutter) to cut out your wrappers. repeat until all your dough is used up.

Sincerely! I literally wrote the book on gyoza - here > http://knol.google.com/k/potstickers-the-perfect-food# So imagine my chagrin when I relocated to dear old dad's ancestral home in mid_Northern Ohio after his passing, and found that I had no source for gyoza skins. Well, I could buy them by the crate from Amazon - a $2.36 package would cost me $27.48 in shipping. http://www.amazon.com/Gyoza-Skins-3-5-Inch-count/dp/B0050ILMOU/ref=sr_1_1?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1327267125&sr=1-1 And they're not even fresh. I don't live in SoCal anymore, where I could literally get them at a 7/11. I'm convinced by this post that the way to go is to invest in the equipment and roll my own fresh. Arigato gozaimasu !

I had no idea I could do that and always bought them prepared. I can make lefse, so this should be a snap! They are like dainty lefse... That’s so cool!
