Personal Notes:
Can use wonton wrappers instead of making your own dough. Use 2 wrappers for one kreplach. Moist wrapper and press to get them to stick together. Put meat in center of wrapper. Moisten edges and pinch together to seal in meat. Make sure wonton wrappers are sticking or they will fall apart when boiling.
