Asian Cuisine Series: Pot Stickers/Dumplings for the Holidays
Comm Ed - Culinary | FULL
If you've ever had pot stickers (or Chinese dumplings), you know how delicious they are. In Chinese, it's called Jiaozi, and it is the traditional Chinese dish for the holidays. The magic happens when all the flavorful ingredients are tucked away in a delicate wrap, then cooked to perfection. Chef Joy will teach you everything you need to know about dumpling-making, from mixing different ingredients for the filling to making your own thin wraps. You will learn not only different ways of making, but also cooking your dumplings. And who knows? Dumpling-making may become your next family holiday tradition - it is delightful fun, a group effort project, and the end result is tantalizing tasty. Come join us!

Joy Shan
Joy Shan moved from the eastern coast of China to a tiny college town in the U.S. to go to graduate school. She missed Chinese food, and so learned and advanced her cooking skills when she had to be her own personal chef. She taught a fellow Chinese student in her dorm how to cook dumplings to ease his homesickness after she found out he was weeping on the phone talking to his mother. She developed a passion for cooking as she learned how to recreate the authentic flavors of her home using limited ingredients. Most of her recipes use whole foods and are plant-based. She loves sharing her recipes, experiences and stories with people. She hopes that these classes will help and inspire others to explore and enjoy different foods, cultures, and the world.
