Since Yipin can’t physically welcome you into her home, she wants to do so virtually!
Our online classes are designed to be special, meaningful opportunities to share cooking, culture, and connection--just like our real life experiences. We want you to cook along, and we promise there will be plenty of time for questions, conversation, and stories. It will all end with a virtual dinner party where you'll get to share in the fruits of your labor, apart, but together!
In this 2.5 hour interactive online experience Yipin will guide you through making three of her family recipes. During your class, you'll prepare Yipin's sauce gombo (a nutty and rich chicken gumbo flavored with okra, onion, bell pepper, tomato, garlic, and chiles), steamed parboiled rice (tender and pillowy rice to serve with your gumbo), and gingembre (a refreshing ginger drink that is both spicy and sweet).
