Get ready and roll up your sleeves to learn the craft of making authentic dumplings from scratch! In this hands-on and interactive class, you will be guided step-by-step through refining your knife skills, making dumpling fillings, rolling dumpling dough and learning the art of folding wonton wrappers into various traditional shapes such as the diamond shape and the traditional fold over technique you would see in restaurants. You will be making two types of dumplings in this 2 hour class; steamed chicken, and fried vegetable sesame wontons. You will learn the techniques to both fry and steam your dumplings. Once you have created your masterpieces, you will then plate up and enjoy eating your creations!
No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don't already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who's happier observing and assisting (or taste testing).
Please arrive on time. Late arrivals may not be able to be accommodated. Please note that class will be hosted in Chef Jaime's apartment. Chef Jaime shares her home with 2 small dogs weighing under 30 pound combined. Though they will be in another room to themselves throughout the class, this class is not suitable to those allergic or afraid of dogs. Coffee and an assortment of teas will be provided for your enjoyment.
