Traditional Taiwanese Breakfast From Scratch

My daughter and I took this cooking class wanting to learn to make a basic Taiwanese breakfast. It was taught in a bright, clean, and beautifully designed space in a convenient location near Taipei Main Station. We left feeling like we could make the breakfast at home in the US, and were given recipes and photos of our experience. I highly recommend it!

Angela was a great instructor. She was funny and entertained us well during the course. The foods we cooked were amazing. The XiaoLingBao is obviously the most time intensive, but the result tasted better than most that I bought in Taiwan. The beef noodle soup is more simple, but Angela’s comments were really helpful. I can’t wait to make this dish. The salad was nice and simple, and the bubble tea was fresh and not too sugary. Apart from that it was nice to chat a bit, Angela (I promised her to mention her name 3 times) had some interesting stories to tell, both privately and about Taiwanese culture. She has also a decent outsider view, having lived abroad many years. All in all a great class, and I can’t wait to cook the dishes at home. Thank you Angela (I hope 4 times won’t bring you bad luck, so let’s make it 5: Angela).
