Traditionally, families get together on Lunar New Year's Eve to make one of the most important foods enjoyed during the new year, dumplings. They symbolize wealth because of their ancient ingot shape.

In this class you'll learn:

• How to make colorful dumpling wrappers from scratch
• The flexibility of preparing fillings based on what you have on hand (including leftovers!) and a variety of traditional and fun pleats
• The different ways of cooking them up!

Each participant will prepare 12+ dumplings that can be enjoyed at the end of class or to take home to enjoy, or to freeze and savor later!

This class is vegan-friendly and plastic-free. The wrappers will contain gluten.

Freshmade NYC began with an idea driven by a question, “How do we make healthier food options appealing and accessible to our children?” Their mission is not only to expose healthy foods to young children, but to also give parents and caregivers ideas of how they can create a love for healthy eating in their children. Programs at Freshmade NYC are designed to make families more aware of healthy lifestyles through creative, hands-on classes for children, and adults.
