Tour Details

If you're keen to broaden your culinary horizons, come along to this hands-on cooking class, where you'll learn how to create delicious homemade-style Chinese dumplings completely from scratch! Not the same as dumplings from Chinatown or other Dim Sum takeaways, these are the real ones that Chinese families enjoy at home, especially in Northern China, the birthplace of the dumplings, where they're part of the staple diet. During this dumpling class, you'll learn how to make dumplings from expert Chinese cooking teacher Pan. You'll be shown how to make your dishes using authentic methods.

With class sizes kept small and intimate, you will get full attention from Pan, who'll be around to make sure all your questions are answered. This class begins with a short introduction to the world of dumplings and Asian cuisine — you will learn all about the history of dumpling making and how dumplings fit into modern trends of cooking.

What Makes This Tour Special

This class is led by an expert Chinese cooking teacher, Pan, who provides personalized attention, ensuring a hands-on learning experience that emphasizes authentic techniques and family recipes.
  • Small class sizes allow for personalized instruction.
  • Learn authentic dumpling recipes that are not available in restaurants.
  • Experience a cultural immersion through cooking and history narration.

Historical Background

Dumplings have a long history in China, tracing back over 1,800 years, believed to have originated during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Traditionally, they were a way to celebrate family gatherings and have since become a staple in Chinese cuisine, particularly in Northern China.
