In this demonstration class you will learn how to make three delicious regional noodle dishes perfect for warm weather. We’ll explore the unique ingredients and techniques behind each dish and talk about what makes them special in their corner of China. By the end of class, you’ll have the skills and confidence to recreate these slurp-worthy favorites in your own kitchen.

Menu to include:

• Beijing ZhaJiang Noodles
