REVIEW – Bibigo Chicken & Cilantro Mini Wontons from Costco (Frozen)
My boyfriend and I tried some of these frozen Bibigo mini wontons from Costco. We tried cooking a few the easiest way first -- using the microwave. Of course, you can also pan fry, boil, or add it to a soup! We microwaved 6 of them wrapped in a wet paper towel for about a minute (The instructions state to microwave 12 for 1-2 minutes). They came out alright with the exception of a few spots that were a little dry.
The wontons weren't tiny, but they were mini (maybe about 2 in x 1 in). They taste just like wontons with a more dominant green onion taste. They also taste similar to the taste of Korean Mandu (dumpling). The texture was good -- although it can be a little dry microwaved, if your wet paper towel doesn't fully cover them.
We also tried some of the wontons with a spicy noodle soup. The noodle soup was microwaved, and when there was ~two minutes left, we added 6 wontons to it. It turned out very nice!

My boyfriend preferred the wontons in the soup rather than microwaved on their own, while I enjoyed them both ways. We both liked the taste, and it was a pretty good snack!

I’ve been to 3 different costco’s and they are always out. Can I order them online. I love them. Going through Chemo right now and they are comfort food for sure.
I love these Chicken & Cilantro Wontons. I wish they were easier to buy. They are the best.
I like these Chicken & Cilantro Wontons. If I cook them in the microwave in a covered dish with a little bit of water, I eat them with a chili sauce or a plum sauce. I also like them cooked in a chicken broth. I see they are packaged for a US company but where are they made? Does anyone have an answer as to where they are actually made and not just where they are packaged? Thanks
These are fantastic, imo. I’ve found that, as with other wontons and potstickers, you need a ziploc bag with a decent amount of water if you’re going to cook them in the microwave. I put about 10 of them in with probably half a cup of water, seal the bag getting the air out, then poke about 5 holes in the top of the bag. 3 minutes on high, let them cool, then drain and I think they come out great. Let dry out a bit if you want to fry them in oil and soy sauce. These are great as snacks, the wrapper is nice and thin, and they have a lovely flavor.
