Kid’s Club: Dim Sum

Calling all kiddos! This one’s for YOU! Hop to the streets of Asia in minutes, and have a Dim Sum treat anytime. Everyone in the family will love this recipe. Kiddos, you will need to be at the stove for part of this class, so if you or your adult is not quite comfortable with that, make sure they’re around to help you for the last 10minutes of class: the part where we cook these delicious pancakes! (They are like a crispy, buttery bread.)

These flaky & Crispy Scallion Pancakes will soon become a favorite go-to treat. They’re easy to make, scrumptious, fast, and satisfying. The best part: all you need is about a cup of flour, some butter/oil, and some scallions or chive. That’s it!

Expand your Quarantine Cooking and bring Hipcooks to your kitchen with our Livestream cooking classes. We all cook step-by-step and side-by-side for an interactive experience. 

Just a few ingredients make the magic!

Here’s what to have on hand to get ready for class. The amount below makes 4 pancakes (perfect for 4 people.) Feel free to halve the amount if there are just 2 of you.

2½ cups flour
1 cup of hot water
a few scallions or chives, plus some scissors or a knife
½ a stick of butter in a small pot or microwave-safe bowl (we’ll be melting the butter for class)
sea salt
neutral cooking oil (like filtered coconut oil, grapeseed oil, vegetable oil or avocado oil)

Equipment Check-List

skillet (10 or 12-inch skillet is perfect). You can use a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan. Just about whatever you have will work.
tongs (are ideal for grabbing and flipping your pancake as you cook it. A spatula is trickier, but will also work!)
a pastry brush (a clean paintbrush is fine to use if you don’t have a pastry brush)
rolling pin
