Discover the flavor-packed world of dumplings!
In this hands-on and interactive class, you will be guided step-by-step through refining your knife skills, making a Ginger Chicken Dumpling filling and learning the art of folding your dumpling wrappers into various traditional shapes: Mandu, Gyoza and Siu Mai. Turn these shapes into delicious chicken and vegetable dumplings with a Chili Crisp Dipping Sauce.
You will also learn the process for boiling and pan steaming your dumplings. Once you have created your masterpieces, you will then plate and enjoy eating your creations with your new found foodie friends!
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 15 minutes early to check in. Guests in the same booking party will work together throughout the class by sharing ingredients and equipment. Outside drinks are not allowed and drinks are NOT included in the ticket price. Drinks will be available for purchase at the bar. 21+ only
