Pizza Making Cooking Party in NYC

It’s time to start creating in the kitchen with some homemade Asian dumplings and dim sum!

If you’re a fan of yummy doughy, crispy, or golden brown dumplings, you’re going to get a kick out of our private group cooking classes focused on authentic Asian cuisine. Learning a new skill and adding new dishes to your recipe list are a two for one, but what makes this experience even more exciting is getting to have some fun with your friends, family, partner, or coworkers and eating your creations.

Our New York cooking parties are a fabulous way to explore and celebrate the art of food prep, cooking, and plating, which all will be shared with people you love. It’s a great bonding experience that happens over the span of 3 hours, in which you’ll explore three unique dim sum delicacies.

During this cooking class, a private chef will guide you through blending traditional Chinese ingredients, techniques, and cooking utensils to craft unforgettably delicious Asian dumplings & dim sum. We will assist you along the journey of making multiple types of dumplings, which include:

Dim sum dumplings: Delicate dumplings filled with savory pork and flavorful vegetables, which can be steamed or fried, depending on your preference. Opt for soft pillow pockets of perfection or crunchy dumplings, or both if you want to be really adventurous.

Potstickers: Authentic, perfectly fried potstickers that are golden and crispy, and stuffed with pork, chicken, shrimp, and mushrooms.

Jiaozi dumplings: The star of any Chinese New Year celebration, these phenomenal dumplings are said to bring good luck to you in all of your endeavors. They are traditionally filled with chicken and veggies.

Our group cooking and team building activities are not like your average cooking class–at Selfup, your culinary experience will be educational, exciting, fun, and inspiring. You’ll get to master new skills while enjoying time with new friends over great food and a couple of drinks. Trust us, it will definitely be something to write home about, and you’ll have enough leftovers to eat the next day.

 Why not give the gift of dumplings and send a Selfup gift card to those you love, so they can experience the joys of cooking traditional Asian food from scratch.
