Fun Dumpling Making Class at a Trendy Local Brewery in San Diego

Fold, steam and bite into dumplings you actually made yourself at a lively San Diego brewery. You’ll start by mixing ground pork, shrimp paste and fresh chives into a flavorful filling, then learn how to fold and shape Chinese dumplings by hand. The techniques are simple enough for beginners but satisfying enough to make you want to keep folding long after the class ends. Next, you’ll mix a dipping sauce with soy sauce, honey, sesame oil and rice vinegar, learning how to balance salty, sweet, tangy and nutty flavors. You’ll then use the remaining filling to shape shumai-style dumplings, giving you another folding technique to add to your kitchen repertoire. After cooking your creations, you’ll sit back and enjoy your handmade meal in the brewery’s relaxed, social atmosphere. Takeout might have some competition now.
