Make Perfect Dumplings With a Local Chef

Some recipes are as fun to make as they are to eat, and dumplings are at the top of that list. This hands-on cooking class turns simple ingredients into something seriously satisfying while giving you practical skills you'll want to use again and again.

You'll start by preparing fresh dumpling dough and creating a savory filling before learning how to roll wrappers to the right thickness for easy folding. Step by step, you'll practice filling, pleating and sealing dumplings until each one is ready to cook. Along the way, you'll gain confidence with dough-making, shaping and proper sealing techniques that help every dumpling stay perfectly intact. Once everything is cooked, you'll enjoy tender wrappers wrapped around a flavorful filling that tastes even better because you made it yourself. Whether you're looking for a fun night out or a new kitchen skill, you'll leave with plenty of confidence—and a strong case for making dumplings from scratch more often.
