About the Course

Learn how to make gluten-free dumplings that actually hold, fold and taste right at home.

This is a comprehensive, pre-recorded online course hosted on Thinkific, one of the world’s leading teaching platforms. There are no live class dates - you can start anytime, learn at your own pace, and revisit each lesson whenever you need.

In this course, you’ll master a reliable gluten-free dumpling pastry that is easy to work with and holds beautifully when cooking. You’ll learn how to mix, roll and shape dumplings with confidence - without the usual cracking or tearing that comes with gluten-free doughs.

You’ll create three versatile, flavour-packed fillings:

• Chicken & Mushroom
• Shrimp & Water Chestnut
• Spinach & Carrot

Alongside this, you’ll learn how to build flavour through a balanced dipping sauce and a simple, aromatic chilli oil that you’ll use beyond just dumplings.

We also break down essential pantry ingredients - so you understand what to use, why it matters, and how to adapt based on what you have at home.

This course goes beyond recipes. You’ll understand the techniques behind texture, balance and structure - so you can recreate and adapt dumplings confidently in your own kitchen.
