Description
Khinkali is a key symbol of Georgian cuisine, with subtle techniques that distinguish each cook’s mastery. Pelmeni, similar in texture but distinct in preparation, offer a contrasting dumpling experience. This class explains the differences as you prepare both dishes.
The session includes tasting cold vodka chilled in the freezer and is open to participants aged 20 and above. Children may attend if they opt out of alcohol consumption. Expect engaging conversations on kitchen secrets and culinary traditions as the class progresses.
Using pre-made dough, participants create dough shells filled with meat or vegetarian fillings. Finished dumplings are complemented with fresh herbs, cream, mustard, and adjika. Over 90 minutes, each attendee will make ten khinkali or twenty pelmeni dumplings.
