This is a live, hands-on cooking class held online via Zoom. Class is limited to 12 students to create an interactive, dynamic experience. The Instructor will be assisted by a remote 18 Reasons staffer who will facilitate conversation during class and ensure all students are attended to. We will be recording the class and we hope to make the recording available to students after an editing process to protect the privacy of our students’ homes.

Registered students should take at least 30 min before class begins to do the following: download and set up Zoom, test audio and video, wash and prep ingredients, and bring out equipment in the kitchen, per the list linked below. 18 Reasons staff will e-mail registrants one message containing class recipes and a Zoom meeting link; check your junk/spam/event folder in case you do not see the e-mail. Search for any email from 18 Reasons, looking for a subject line containing the full title of the class. 

 

Dumpling making can bring a community together. Whether you're living alone or have housemates to join you, making dumplings is a meditative, fun way to make your meal and store some for later. Dumplings freeze well, so we recommend you have a stash in your freezer for busy days, or for surprising a neighbor or friend with a gift on their doorstep. We'll ask you to buy pre-made wrapper skins, so in class, you'll focus on creating flavorful fillings and practicing a few folding methods. Linda will guide you through techniques over the camera, so rest assured, you won't be alone in learning this!
