Wanted to learn how to make traditional dumplings so we could make them on our own for Lunar New Year. We truly did learn how to make dumplings from scratch, the dough and the filling. We will actually be able to replicate what we did in class. Thank you, Chef! The only improvement would be if we had our own cooking station to finish the actual cooking ourselves. I know that would make the class at least a 3 hour class but we were enjoying class so that would work for us!
