Spring Roll Symphony (18+)


CE - Enrichment Classes / Culinary -
CE Spring/Summer 2024

Discover the fun as you dive into the world of spring rolls. Learn to customize the filling to your dietary preferences as Tess guides you on how to fill, wrap, roll and cook these yummy packets of deliciousness.

No need to look beyond your own kitchen for restaurant quality spring rolls. Whether you're looking to host a memorable Dim Sum get-together, or simply want to create something fresh and bright to welcome Spring, this is the class. Join Tess as she walks you through the process of creating two types of spring rolls bursting with a symphony of flavors bold and bright enough to wake up your taste buds. Choice of meat (chicken or pork) and veggies will fill your crispy spring rolls. Fresh veggie and precooked protein of choice will fill your fresh spring rolls. Two types of wrappers will be used. Customize your filling ingredients and seasonings according to your taste or dietary preferences. Freezing and reheating tips will also be shared. 

Have your questions answered by the instructor, interact with other participants as you cook along, and increase your confidence in the kitchen with each skill that is learned, each tidbit of advice and instruction that is shared.

Participants will receive a list of ingredients in advance of the class to allow enough time for shopping and preparation. A professionally made PDF packet of the instructor's personal recipes from this class will also be received. As a bonus, Tess has created a private and public group on Facebook for participants of her classes. Everyone will receive an invite; joining is optional.

Note: One registration fee for this online virtual class can include participants from the same household only. If children are participating, adult supervision is required.

Class takes place on Zoom, a free online software. You will receive instructions on how to access the class prior to it starting. Please have a current email on file with us. If you need to cancel one of Tess's classes and you have already been sent a recipe for the class, you will not receive a refund. All of her recipes are originals and are her creative property and will be published in her cookbook. Therefore, we will not be issuing refunds. You may contact us about transferring your enrollment to another participant.

Tess Georgakopoulos

Tess Georgakopoulos, also known as “Chef Tess—Culinary Artist'', has been cooking and baking for well over 45 years since she was roughly 6 years old. Born into a Greek family, the art of cooking traditional meals using one's senses rather than recipes and measurements was passed on from one generation to the next. Her father was also a trained chef who brought the magic of food to life in another form on the weekends as they cooked elaborate family meals together. Food prepared from the heart, with ones own hands and creativity was, and continues to be an expression of love in her home. As an accomplished cook and baker, Tess enjoys creating original recipes for her family and friends. Sweet, savory, or doughy, she enjoys experimenting and creating in the kitchen daily.

Tess is proficient and experienced in creating classes and curriculum for conventional cooking, baking, pressure-cooking, air frying, pizza making, Mediterranean cooking, bread baking, and meal preparation as well. A culinary artist indeed!

She has been teaching both in-person and on-line cooking classes through community education for a number of years having successfully worked with just over 50 public school districts in and around the Twin Cities, in many corners of Minnesota, in addition to school districts in Wisconsin, Missouri, New York, and Arizona. Through her teaching, Tess has helped people of all skill levels increase their confidence and expand their skills in the kitchen reaching heights of their own personal creativity that they never new existed!

Always working towards expanding her culinary repertoire, Tess enjoys spending much of her free time in her test kitchen creating new recipes and reinventing traditional ones using traditional cooking methods and new cooking appliances such as, the Instant Pot® and air fryers too.

Tess has recently started writing her first cookbook, and her food blog is also in the works! Some of her creations can be seen on her Facebook page, “Dish it up Good”, https://www.facebook.com/dishitupgood/ or on her Instagram feed.
