Dim Sum Sampler with Kian Lam Kho

Dim sum is more than just a series of small dishes ordered at a Chinese restaurant—it’s a celebration of a unique culture of cooking and sharing food. In this part hands-on, part demonstration class, you’ll dive into the rich history behind “dim sum”. You’ll learn to recreate three popular dim sum dishes commonly found in Chinatown, including dumplings, egg rolls, and shumai. Students will have the opportunity to get hands-on experience wrapping and folding these items as you learn the dim sum techniques. By the end of the class, you’ll be ready to bring these Chinese delicacies to life at home whether as appetizers or as part of your own Chinese meal.

Menu to include:

• Pork and Shrimp Shumai
• Shrimp Dumplings
