STARTING WITH POTATO BALLS

Think of them as if mochi and a dumpling had a love child: chewy on the outside and savory on the inside.

The recipe was never written down,
only passed through practice and care.

Every ball is handmade and a little imperfect,
but that’s what makes them special.

Now we’re making them for you, one batch at a time.

EMBODYING OUR MISSION

At Chenzi, we believe tradition is best kept alive through taste, touch, and time.


Our mission is to preserve the legacy of underrepresented regional dishes that speaks to comfort, family, and care.

We're starting with the Fuzhounese potato ball, and we're crafting every batch with the same attention and care found in home kitchens.

We honor the past while embracing modern palates, updating generational recipes to keep up with the flavors of today.

More than food, Chenzi is an invitation to come closer, share a meal, and keep culture alive together.

MEET THE FOUNDER

Hi, I’m Christina.

I started Chenzi because in a world obsessed with innovation, I’ve always been drawn to recipes and traditions that have lasted through generations. For me, that’s the potato ball: the bite-sized, chewier, gluten-free cousin of the dumpling.

When I moved to Singapore a few years ago, I started to miss the Fuzhounese dishes I grew up with. It made me realize that if we don't actively preserve these recipes, they would fade away alongside our elders. So, Chenzi was born out of the desire to hold onto heritage and pass it down to future generations.
