The Chinese cooking your Nǎi Nai never wrote down.

You have the recipe — but it still doesn't taste like hers. The secret was never the ingredients. It's the 差不多 (chà bu duō) — the "about right," the timing, and the unwritten rules passed hand to hand in Chinese kitchens. Finally written down.

Why Your Chinese Dishes Don't Taste Like Hers

The recipe only tells you half the story. Here's the half no one writes down.

差不多 · 家传 · 不浪费
🥢

The Unwritten Rules

When to add the soy sauce. Why the wok must smoke before the oil goes in. What "a splash of vinegar" actually means. The decisions no recipe card holds — the ones your Nǎi Nai made without thinking.

🫳

Cooking by 差不多

Chà bu duō — "about right." Chinese home cooking was never about measuring cups. It's about the sound of the wok, the smell of the garlic, the colour of the sauce. Cook by feel, not by numbers.

The Art of 不浪费

Bù làngfèi — waste nothing. Turn yesterday's rice into today's best meal. Transform bones into broth, scraps into flavour. Cook like royalty from a garden, a wok, and what most people throw away.

A Note from Nai Nai Liu

I grew up watching my grandmother cook without a single recipe written down. She'd taste, adjust, taste again — a pinch of sugar here, a splash of vinegar there. I'd ask "how much?" and she'd say "差不多" — about right.

When she passed, those techniques nearly went with her. I spent years collecting, testing, and writing down everything I could remember — and everything the aunties and neighbours still carried in their hands.

"Nobody measured anything. The recipe was in her fingers, in the sound of the wok, in the smell of the oil. I wanted to catch it before it was gone."

This book isn't a recipe collection. It's the reference I wish I'd had — the tricks, the substitutions, the know-how that turns a good dish into the one that tastes like home. 家的味道.

With warmth, Nai Nai Liu 🥢
