Description
Good to Know
Your dumpling-folding era starts now. In a welcoming local venue, you’ll learn how to turn simple ingredients into delicious handmade dumplings while picking up practical techniques you can easily recreate at home.
Begin by preparing and seasoning the filling, then learn how to portion it neatly onto individual wrappers. Next comes the satisfying part: folding and sealing each dumpling by hand, with simple techniques that help create tidy, sturdy parcels. Once shaped, you’ll cook the dumplings and discover how the right cooking method transforms the wrappers and filling into tender, savory bites. Chef Chelsea keeps the process relaxed and beginner-friendly, so imperfect folds are absolutely allowed. You’ll have plenty of time to enjoy the hands-on process, taste what you make and leave with new confidence for your next homemade dumpling night.
A fun, hands-on 2-hour cooking class led by a talented local chef.
All ingredients and cooking tools provided.
Expert instruction, tips and chef secrets you’ll use daily.
An authentic experience hosted at a local public brewery, distillery, craft beer bar or wine bar.
Drinks are available for purchase at the bar of the venue. Prices range from $3 to $20.
Forget takeout for a night and get your hands into some seriously satisfying dumplings. In a relaxed local venue, you’ll learn the basics of dumpling-making from scratch, with plenty of hands-on shaping, filling and cooking along the way.
Start by preparing the dumpling filling, learning how to combine and season the ingredients for balanced flavor. Next, work with the wrappers as you portion the filling, fold each dumpling and seal the edges so everything stays tucked inside. You’ll practice practical shaping and cooking techniques, then cook your handmade dumplings until tender and delicious. The pace stays approachable, making it easy to experiment without worrying about perfect folds. Whether you’re a dumpling fanatic or completely new to the process, you’ll finish with useful kitchen skills and a plate of homemade bites that may make takeout feel a little less exciting.
