Learn how to make and stuff your own vegan dumplings at this practical evening workshop in Rozelle.

Join author and wholefood educator, Marcea Klein, for a tour of the world’s favourite dumplings – from Gyoza to Momos and more.

Join the workshop to explore different cultural takes on the humble dumpling flavours, shapes and cooking styles – to take home and try with family and friends. Stuffed with your favourite sweet or savoury fillings, it’s impossible to stop at just a few of these salty and moreish parcels whether they are steamed, boiled, baked, pan-fried or deep-fried.

Using both pre-made and freshly rolled wrappers, we will explore a range of international vegetarian dumplings, including:

• Tofu, Tempeh or sauerkraut vegetable Gyoza, with sesame dipping sauce
• Steamed seasonal vegetarian Tibetan Momos
• Indian Kofta potato dumplings with spicey Tomato sauce

Join this workshop to learn how to make your own tofu – and then discover some of the many things you can do with it. Along the way you’ll learn how to make and use soy milk and okara – the by-product bean pulp, which is a great way to super-charge your breads, burgers or cookies.

You’ll also learn about the nutritional benefits of tofu, as a good source of amino acids (especially lysine), calcium, iron and more and why it is good to complement it with whole grains.
