About this Event

In this family focused cooking class, we'll make homemade dumplings and a refreshing side dish inspired by Chinese cuisine. We'll prepare shrimp and pork dumplings with chili sesame oil and chicken dumplings steamed in a bamboo basket with a crispy lace skirt. We also practice a fun knife technique by making a spiral-cut cucumber salad using skewers. The class focuses on folding dumplings, steaming techniques, and creative vegetable preparation.
