Dim Sum Dumpling Dynasty: Pot Stickers with Homemade Wrappers & Dipping Sauce

No need to look any further for restaurant quality Dim Sum than your own kitchen! Dim Sum is a joyful Chinese dining tradition of sharing a variety of small flavorful bites, laughter, and connection with family and friends. One of the most beloved Dim Sum Dishes is Pot Stickers! Join Tess for one of her most popular classes as she guides you through the step-by-step process of creating the most wonderful restaurant worthy pot stickers with homemade wrappers that will take you to culinary heights you never knew you could reach. You will learn the magic of building a full-flavored filling (choose a base of pork or chicken), roll out tender homemade wrappers, assemble and cook the pot stickers to perfection with a crispy bottom and tender juicy filling. A bright flavorful sauce will complete the experience. Freezing tips will also be shared. The experience will possibly make store bought pot stickers a thing of the past!

Tess Georgakopoulos

instructor

Tess Georgakopoulos has been cooking for well over 40 years since she was roughly 6 years old. Born into a Greek family, the art of cooking traditional meals using ones senses rather than recipes and measurements was passed on from one generation to the next. Her father was also a trained chef who brought the magic of food to life in another form on the weekends as they cooked elaborate family meals together. Food prepared from the heart, with ones own hands and creativity was, and continues to be an expression of love in her home. As a skilled home cook and baker, Tess enjoys creating original recipes for her family and friends. Sweet, savory, or doughy, she enjoys experimenting and creating in the kitchen daily.

Pressure-cooking with a stovetop cooker has been a part of her culinary repertoire for over 25 years. Tess is creating new recipes and reinventing traditional ones using the Instant Pot, which is taking her pressure-cooking to another level! She has been teaching both in-person and on-line cooking classes through community education for a number of years having worked with numerous public school districts in and around the Twin Cities. Tess has recently started writing her first cookbook, and her food blog is also in the works! Some of her creations can be seen on her Facebook page @dishitupgood https://www.facebook.com/dishitupgood/or on her Instagram Feed: Dish it up Good.
