Stuffed & Steamed: The Art of Bao Buns & Dumplings

The possibilities are endless with Bao, a filled bun whose Chinese origins are dated to at least 2000 years ago. In this class, participants will learn the history of the dish and how to make the dough from scratch. We’ll cover two sample filling recipes as well as sauce and salad pairings to make it a meal. This cook-along class will also cover how to be creative and adaptive with ingredient and equipment availability and time constraints. Our instructor, Alex Palzewicz, will demonstrate multiple ways to cook the dish and store the final product.

FAQs

Is there an ID requirement or an age limit to enter the event?

For all classes that serve wine or beer samples, a photo ID will be required.

The curriculum of every class is unique, please be sure to refer to the class descriptions to check for appropriate age requirements. For our adult classes, we ask that only children 12 and older attend. Children 12 and older should be registered through Eventbrite and paid for just like an adult. We love encouraging kids of all ages to explore healthy eating and new ways to prepare exciting foods at a level appropriate for their age. Please be sure to check our full class roster for information on classes that are geared towards younger children or contact us to set up a private class.

Is my registration/ticket transferrable?

Sure. But if you send someone in your place to the class, please have them bring your ticket.

Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?

No, you do not have to bring your printed ticket to the event. If you can’t attend and want to give your ticket to someone else, it is helpful if they bring it to the event.

What is the refund policy?

We purchase ingredients ahead of time for cooking classes, so refunds will only be guaranteed when cancellations are made 24 hours in advance.

Should I have a snack before class begins?

We recommend that you eat a little something before class begins. In most classes food is served at the end, which can be later in the night.

Will there be aprons available?

You are welcome to bring an apron if you like, as often you will assist in preparing some of the dishes in the class. We have a few aprons to hand out, but there is a limited supply and they are claimed quickly. 

Are masks required to attend classes?

Masks are strongly recommended but not required for entry into the Marquette Food Co-op to shop or attend a class.
