Description
Dim Sum is one of the most traditional and popular Cantonese foods. Translated, Dim Sum means “a touch of your heart”, a name believed to come from a Chinese folk tale in which an ancient Chinese General asked a local chef to prepare local, heart-warming, snacks as a token of his appreciation. While the historical accuracy of this tale is unknown, what we do know is that the name fits! There is nothing like sharing a dim sum meal to warm the heart and tantalize the taste buds. In this class taught by Chef Winnie, a Hong Kong Native, learn how to hand-shape Shumai dumplings, fill and fry spring rolls to crispy perfection, and properly steam spare ribs to make a delicious, heart-warming, dim sum meal in your own home.
With eggs, meat and shellfish.
