Dumplings and Potstickers Workshop

Make plump, juicy dumplings steamed, boiled and sizzled in this cooking class in San Francisco!



2 hours Location Mission District Class size 1 to 2 guests   $125

Dumplings, pot stickers, and wontons? Oh yes, please. In this fully hands-on class in San Francisco, you will individually make your own dumpling dough from scratch. Together, we will make a classic pork and scallion filling using our own in-house, freshly ground pork while covering the necessary ingredients and techniques to ensure a tender and juicy filling.
Learn fast and efficient methods to quickly roll out dough by hand, stuff your dumplings while learning four different shaping methods. Learn to boil/steam dumplings as well as create crispy-bottomed pot stickers with a melt-in-the-mouth skirt. We will create our own dipping sauces and once our dumplings are finished, share a delicious meal of our tender, juicy dumplings.
You will make approximately 20 dumplings each, so you will have ample chance to practice filling and folding (and eating). All materials, recipes, and handouts supplied. Class is limited to only 2 students for a fully hands-on experience.
