Dumplings (July'22)

Soft steamed dough wrapped around a delicious filling, usually served with a sauce for dipping - yum yum yum!

As legend has it, dumplings were invented in China about 2000 years ago - by Zhang Zhongjing, a Chinese medicine practitioner who lived in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Today, they play an essential part in many world cuisines, including that of the Philippines, where Beth is from.

Dumplings may be prepared using various methods, including boiling, steaming, frying, or simmering.

Beth has perfected the art of dumpling making over many years and has also been selling her beautiful creations at the Motueka market. She will share her recipes with you and teach you how to prepare the dough, wrap the filling, and steam the dumplings. In this workshop, there will be two fillings to choose from shrimp or vegetarian.

There will be lots of sampling – ensure your dinner beforehand is not too filling.

Please note we will be working with standard white flour, so it is not suitable for anyone with gluten intolerance.

Limited to 12 participants, so get in early.
