San Francisco Cooking Class: Dumpling Making from Scratch

An interactive cooking class in San Francisco where participants make Shanghainese dumplings by hand, from the dough to the folded filling, followed by a three-course meal built around them.

This hands-on class teaches participants to make Shanghainese dumplings from scratch. The dough follows Chef Edmund's family recipe, and no pre-made wrappers are used. Under instruction, participants practice folding with care and choose a filling of American Wagyu, local organic pork, or tofu.

Once the dumplings are shaped, the group tastes several sauces the chef favors and mixes a personal dipping sauce to take with them. The session ends with a three-course meal that features the handmade dumplings alongside local ingredients. Each participant receives a recipe guide to keep.

The class suits food lovers and anyone who wants to learn a cooking technique alongside others. It is held in the middle of San Francisco.
