As is the case with many aspects of daily life here, things are just not so simple in China. For some help doing your grocery shopping in Chinese, you can check out these past posts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a title=\"At the Market \u2013 Meat &amp; Seafood\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/at-the-market-meat-seafood\/\">Meat &amp; Seafood<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"At the Market \u2013 Fruit\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/at-the-market-fruit\/\">Fruit<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a title=\"At the Market \u2013 Vegetables\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/at-the-market-vegetables\/\">Vegetables<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now that you&#8217;ve got all your ingredients, it&#8217;s time to hit the kitchen. You may be surprised, however, to find out that Chinese kitchens are incredibly tiny and bare-boned. For a people who take great pride in their cuisine and seem to plan their entire day around meals, you&#8217;d think kitchens would be a bigger deal here. For most Westerners living in China, the major drawback to a Chinese kitchen is the lack of an oven. We love baking things &#8211; cakes, chickens, pizzas &#8211; and this is simply not a preferred style of cooking in China. It might be more popular, but ovens are expensive and large. Some may also be bummed to find the kitchen devoid of a dishwasher as well.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11079\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter post-item__attachment\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11079\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11079\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2015\/04\/DSC00888.jpg\" alt=\"Chinese ladies sure know how to make the best of a bad kitchen.\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2015\/04\/DSC00888.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2015\/04\/DSC00888-350x233.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-11079\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chinese ladies sure know how to make the best of a bad kitchen.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As for me, I&#8217;d love to have an oven, but get by just fine with my simple toaster oven. I lived without a dishwasher for two years before I moved here, so I&#8217;m used to and actually prefer doing dishes by hand. What really gets me is the sheer lack of space in Chinese kitchens. Cooking here is usually a one-person job by necessity &#8211; you simply can&#8217;t fit two people in there. Any time I&#8217;m trying to cook up a big meal, I get claustrophobic and stressed out. With just two burners and very limited counter space, I have to get creative about where I put things &#8211; cutting board with veggies ready to go on top of the coffee machine, rice cooker nestled next to the water cooler, and so on.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11078\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter post-item__attachment\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11078\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11078\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2015\/04\/Picture-048.jpg\" alt=\"The kitchen in my first ever Chinese apartment.\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2015\/04\/Picture-048.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2015\/04\/Picture-048-350x263.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-11078\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The kitchen in my first ever Chinese apartment.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>To at least make your life a bit easier when dealing with kitchen issues in China, here&#8217;s some useful vocabulary to study:<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left\">The Room<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3>kitchen (\u53a8\u623f &#8211; ch\u00fa f\u00e1ng)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>sink (\u6d17\u7897\u6c60 &#8211; x\u01d0 w\u01cen ch\u00ed)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>shelf (\u6401\u677f &#8211; g\u0113 b\u01cen)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>cabinet (\u53a8\u67dc &#8211; ch\u00fa gu\u00ec)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>counter (\u67dc\u53f0 &#8211; gu\u00ec t\u00e1i)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>drawer (\u62bd\u5c49 &#8211; ch\u014du t\u00ec)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1>Appliances<\/h1>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3>stove (\u706b\u7089 &#8211; hu\u01d2 l\u00fa)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>oven (\u70e4\u7bb1 &#8211; k\u01ceo xi\u0101ng)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>refrigerator (\u51b0\u7bb1 &#8211; b\u012bng xi\u0101ng)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>freezer (\u51b0\u67dc &#8211; b\u012bng gu\u00ec)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>microwave (\u5fae\u6ce2\u7089 &#8211; w\u00e9i b\u014d l\u00fa)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>dishwasher (\u6d17\u7897\u673a &#8211; x\u01d0 w\u01cen j\u012b)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>toaster (\u70e4\u9762\u5305\u673a &#8211; k\u01ceo mi\u00e0n b\u0101o j\u012b)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>blender (\u7535\u6405\u62cc\u5668 &#8211; di\u00e0n ji\u01ceo b\u00e0n q\u00ec)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>food processor (\u98df\u7269\u8c03\u7406\u673a &#8211; sh\u00ed w\u00f9 ti\u00e1o l\u01d0 j\u012b)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>coffee machine (\u5496\u5561\u673a &#8211; k\u0101 f\u0113i j\u012b)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>slow cooker (\u6162\u7096\u9505 &#8211; m\u00e0n d\u00f9n gu\u014d)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>tea kettle (\u8336\u58f6 &#8211; ch\u00e1 h\u00fa)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>rice cooker (\u7535\u996d\u9505 &#8211; di\u00e0n f\u00e0n gu\u014d)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>can opener (\u5f00\u7f50\u5668 &#8211; k\u0101i gu\u00e0n q\u00ec)<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a little description of my kitchen and what appliances I have:<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11077\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter post-item__attachment\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11077\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11077\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/chinese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2015\/04\/DSC02608.jpg\" alt=\"My current kitchen.
