There is a sog’ghe 俗語 [a common saying] which you can hear in this video.

ka2 sêg4hu6
lang5 ui5 bho5 bhi2 ze1 cuê1 |
|
巧媳婦難為無米之炊｜ 巧媳妇难为无米之炊 |
|
A skilful
daughter in law will find it difficult to cook without rice. |
The Mandarin version is:
|
巧婦難為無米之炊｜巧妇难为无米之炊 |
I wonder why the Teochew version does not say sing1bu6 新婦 and
uses sêg4hu6 for daughter in law.
The deeper meaning of the saying is: "It is not possible to do anything without equipment."
