Join TAP-NY in learning how to make Taiwanese Fried Tempura (甜不辣) and Oden (關東煮)! Found in Taiwanese night markets and street food stalls, fried tempura is made with fish paste and starch, then deep-fried until golden and slightly crispy on the outside with a chewy, bouncy texture. Oden consists of assorted ingredients such as fish cakes, tofu, daikon radish, eggs, and vegetables simmered in a light, savory dashi broth. It’s commonly enjoyed as a warm street food or casual meal, especially in Taiwan during cooler weather.

Our favorite Taiwanese “A-ma” will be leading this class, so come out for a fun morning of a cooking demo, meeting new people, and most importantly, eating! 

Please note: the cooking workshop is group-effort and individual stations will not be provided. The amount of hands-on cooking will vary depending on the dish.

This cooking workshop will be held in Astoria (~30min from midtown). Please be aware that the cooking portion may take at least 2 hours so if you leave early, you may be unable to eat the final product.
