Hands On Dumpling Party

The most fun you can have around a kitchen counter. Together we fold, pleat, and roll fresh dumplings and spring rolls from scratch, hands-on, while I share the tricks that make them perfect every time. Then we cook them hot and eat them together. Light, playful, and made for a daytime get-together, a birthday, or an afternoon with friends. Vegetarian options welcome. Award-winning cookbook author Maricel Gentile, on Food Network, Hulu, and PBS. Groups of 10+. Come hungry and ready to play

This Kamayan feast was voted Best Overall at Taste of Edison for flavor and authenticity. Vegetarian and gluten-free friendly. Sit-down or buffet. Signed cookbook included. Food Network, Hulu, PBS. 10+.
