Confucius Institute

The CI with Chinese Language Culture Club cosponsored the Dumpling Workshop

On Sept. 30, with the Confucius Institute, the Chinese Language and Culture Club hosted a dumpling making & tasting workshop at Jardine Frith Community Center, attracting more than 70 participants from K-State students, faculty and staff, and greater community with diverse cultural background.

After a brief introduction to the culture behind it, the CLCC and the teacher from CI demonstrated how to make dumplings and Xiaolongbao (soup dumpling).

By dividing into groups based on vegetarian/meat fillings, people get hands-on experiences on making dumplings, and of course eating their creations afterwards. At least one professional was instructing side by each station.
