Chinese Soup Dumplings

In this technical hands-on class, you will create Chinese soup dumplings, sometimes referred to as Shanghai dumplings or “soupy buns.” The steamed dumpling consists of a paper-thin dough wrapper enveloping a seasoned pork filling with a hot burst of liquid in each bite. Chef-instructor Shawnie Kelley teaches step-by-step instructions for making each element of this dim sum staple. Learn how to roll, fill, pleat, and properly steam the dumplings. Shawnie explains the components and steps for making the gelatinized soup filling and where to get the ingredients. While your soupy buns are steaming, you will put together a smashed cucumber salad with garlic-chili dressing. At the end of class, enjoy your dumplings and salad along with a glass of wine.
