What To Expect
Dive into the bold, comforting flavors of Korean-inspired dumplings in this hands-on cooking class with Chef Rachel at a local Philadelphia venue. You’ll start by building a savory filling, combining ground pork with garlic, ginger and tangy kimchi to create deep, well-balanced flavor. From there, Chef Rachel will guide you through filling and folding dumplings, teaching techniques that help each one seal neatly and cook evenly. While the dumplings rest, you’ll switch gears and prepare a crisp cucumber salad, slicing fresh cucumbers and tossing them in a light, savory dressing with soy sauce, rice vinegar and sesame oil. To finish, you’ll mix a punchy dipping sauce using gochujang and maple syrup, striking the perfect balance of heat and sweetness. The class wraps up with enjoying the full meal you made, plus skills you’ll want to reuse at home.
