Tiffy Cooks

Tiffy Chen started blogging about food and recipes after learning to cook from her mother and grandmother. In her debut cookbook, Tiffy shares memories and recipes shaped by growing up in Taiwan—a country with rich culture, diverse cuisines, and some of the best street food in the world—along with beloved family recipes and unique dishes inspired by her travels across Southeast Asia.

With eighty-eight (a very lucky number in Chinese culture) flavor-packed recipes, Tiffy offers her favorite quick and easy everyday dishes, like a classic Taiwanese Breakfast Sandwich and her grandmother’s Sesame Chicken Rice. Also included are family-style dishes to pass around and enjoy, from Drunken Chicken and Braised Five-Spice Beef to Garlic and Scallion Lobster and Braised Sticky Pork Belly. You’ll find favorites like bao, buns, wontons, and dumplings that are great to make in bulk—all freezer-friendly to help you save time and have them on hand for when the mood strikes!

With gorgeous step-by-step photography and heartwarming stories about traveling in Asia and finding the best street food in Taiwan, Tiffy Cooks celebrates Asian food and family in this must-make collection of go-to, easy recipes.
