Store-bought frozen dumplings are officially on notice. In this hands-on cooking class with Chef Jimmy, you’ll learn how to make fresh dim sum dumplings from scratch while hanging out at a trendy local venue in Portland. This fun and beginner-friendly experience combines comforting flavours, practical kitchen skills and the deeply satisfying feeling of eating dumplings you folded yourself. Chef Jimmy will guide you through preparing hot water dough using flour, salt and hot water before teaching simple techniques for rolling, filling and sealing dumplings like a pro. You’ll craft two delicious varieties: a savoury meat dumpling packed with pork, chicken and spring onion, plus a vegetable dumpling filled with cabbage, shiitake mushrooms and parsley. To finish, whip up a flavourful dipping sauce with soya sauce, sesame oil and chilli crunch that takes every bite to another level. Expect plenty of folding, tasting and laughing while learning approachable techniques you can easily recreate at home for your next dinner party or comfort-food craving.
