Cooking Class: Perfect Dumplings With Chef Joshua

Get ready to fold, fry and feast on homemade dumplings in this fun, hands-on cooking class!


Forget the frozen dumplings! You'll start from scratch by mixing, kneading and rolling fresh dough before whipping up a savory filling packed with mushrooms, cabbage and ginger. Chef Joshua will show you some clever folding tricks to turn your dumplings into little works of art. Don't worry if a few turn out a little wonky. That's part of the fun! Next, you'll pan-fry your creations until they're golden and crispy on the bottom, then whip up a tangy lime-soy dipping sauce to bring it all together. By the end of this two-hour class, you'll have some delicious dumplings and the skills to recreate them at home. Book your spot today!
