A Virtual Dumpling Making Masterclass

Learn to make authentic vegetarian dumplings from scratch in this virtual dumpling making class!

Your live expert host will guide you step-by-step, from kneading and rolling homemade dough to mixing a flavourful mushroom-based filling and folding your dumplings with classic pleats. You’ll also create a rich garlic chilli sesame dipping sauce to pair with your golden, pan-fried creations. Along the way, your host will share pro tips, cultural insights, and keep the atmosphere light with fun icebreaker questions to engage your group.

This hands-on cooking class is suitable for all skill levels; whether you’re a total beginner or already love experimenting in the kitchen, the session is designed to be inclusive, fun, and relaxed. Perfect for virtual team building, international team socials, client engagement, or any event where you want people to bond over great food.

Ingredient kits can be delivered in advance, or you can choose a BYO (bring your own) option with a detailed ingredient provided. 

Most dietary needs can be accommodated, including vegan, vegetarian, and dairy-free options.

OUR STANDARD EVENT FORMAT:

–> Your expert host will provide an introduction and overview of the dumpling making class.
–> After checking all the ingredients and equipment, you’ll start by preparing your dipping sauce, rehydrating mushrooms, and making your dumpling dough. Step-by-step guidance will be provided throughout.
–> While the dough rests, your host will walk you through the vegetarian filling and share fun dumpling trivia and icebreaker questions to keep things light and social.
–> Once the dough is ready, you’ll learn how to roll out dumpling wrappers and fill and fold each dumpling using traditional techniques.
–> When it’s time to cook, your host will guide you through pan-frying and steaming to achieve the perfect crispy base and soft top.
–> At the end, you’ll plate your dumplings, pour your dipping sauce, and do the all-important taste test.
–> Your host will then drop off the event link, but guests are welcome to stay on and keep chatting if they’d like.
