Set a wonton wrapper on a clean, dry work surface. Place a level teaspoon of filling in the center. Dip your finger in water and run it along all four edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing firmly to seal and pushing out any air pockets. Bring the two bottom corners of the triangle together, overlapping them slightly, and press to seal — this forms the classic purse shape. Set the finished wonton on a baking sheet and cover loosely with a damp paper towel while you repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
