Make a Small Wrapper out of the Dough.

Pressing a Ball of Dough into a Small Wrapper

D.Schmidt
Take a little of the dough and roll it between your palms to form a ball (you'll probably remember doing this as a child). To give you an idea of the size, my balls of dough are about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.

Meanwhile, cover the rest of the dough with a damp cloth, or simply place a plate over the bowl to keep dough from drying out.

Tip: It helps to keep your hands moist - dip them in a little water if your dough becomes crumbly. The moisture will help you make a nice "shiny" rice ball.

Now press the ball of dough flat onto a floured surface (use the same glutinous rice flour) to create a round "wrapper".
