Moisten each wonton wrapper. Moisten entire edge with water. Lift both sides of wrapper and pinch together above stuffing, gathering up edges and pleating wrappers; pinch to seal. Continue with remaining wrappers and filling. Into each of two large skillets, bring to a boil 2 cups of water. Reduce heat to medium; add dumplings and do not allow to touch. Cover lightly and steam until dumplings are firm and wrappers are soft, 15 minutes. Serve immediately. Garnish serving platter with scallion fans and radish flower.
