With hard work and a little bit of talent, this person may not necessarily become famous, but he can still surpass most people.

Before he met Xiao Mao, Chang Ning thought that no one could match him in terms of self-discipline. Only after seeing Xiao Mao did he know what the King of Rolls was.

Xiao Mao's real name is Wang Xiaomao. He used to be a cook and is still a cook now. The difference is that he worked in the army from the local area.

"Monitor Xiaomao, you see I have been chopping vegetables for many days. Can you teach me how to stir-fry vegetables today?"

There is no way Chang Ning is still a private. When he sees a non-commissioned officer, he has to call him squad leader.

Chang Ning placed the cut pumpkin in front of Wang Xiaomao. The pumpkin pieces in the basin were all the same size. If he hadn't been nearby when Chang Ning cut it, Wang Xiaomao would have thought that Chang Ning had specially measured the pumpkin pieces with a ruler.

Seeing Chang Ning's results, Wang Xiaomao, a senior chef, was secretly dumbfounded. If he remembered correctly, Chang Ning couldn't even peel potatoes with a kitchen knife at first, but after a few days, he is now very comfortable with the kitchen knife.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaomao started to think of a test. He wanted to see if Chang Ning really had talent in this area.

If so, it's not impossible to teach Chang Ning how to cook some of his specialty dishes. It's the 21st century now, and we don't want to keep it to ourselves.

"Don't worry, let me see how your knife skills are first."

As he said this, Wang Xiaomao casually picked up a potato from the chopping board and placed it in Chang Ning's hand.

"Come on, I won't embarrass you, just cut a potato into shreds and have a look."

The assessment item turned out to be shredded potatoes, which made Chang Ning happy. In the past few days, what he had cut the most was shredded potatoes. Chang Ning was really not sure if he was asked to cut Wensi tofu.

Although he has filled up his knife skills experience bar and has more knowledge about using knives in his mind, he has never used it in reality.

It's just like after listening to music a few times, you think you can sing. But if you actually sing it, it's not the same thing.

Seeing that the monitor didn't make things difficult for him, Chang Ning felt that he couldn't let go anymore. He picked up the potatoes and peeled them off skillfully and quickly.

The thin potato skin did not break under Chang Ning's knife. Wang Xiaomao carefully discovered that there was no pulp on the peeled potato skin.

He immediately knew what kind of level Chang Ning's knife skills were.

You must know that the surface of potatoes is uneven. If you want to peel off the skin completely, it is very difficult to use a knife, not to mention that Chang Ning does a perfect job of separating the skin and flesh.

If you want to do both, the difficulty is not as simple as one plus one equals two.

In fact, the only thing that can be said about knife skills is: skilled!

Just like Qiao Feng can become a master with Taizu Changquan, people rely on their proficiency in this boxing method. The more they practice, the more insights they will gain, and the greater their abilities will be.

But why not everyone can become Qiao Feng?

There is a famous saying that genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration.

Of course, I believe everyone knows the second half of his sentence. This sentence refers to top scientists like Einstein and Edison. Ordinary people put in enough sweat to achieve an understanding, and they will still gain something in the end, but the achievements are not.

It's just that big.

There are not many online writers who have become gods after writing one book in twenty years. The great writers only succeeded after ten years of hard work.

Chang Ning is also an ordinary person. His golden fingers supplemented one percent of his inspiration. The moment he got the potato, all the knife techniques in his mind and the muscles of his body could be used in perfect harmony.

Solve the potatoes in your hands.

The surface of the potatoes that had been peeled off was very smooth, with no edges or corners left after using the knife, as if the potatoes in Chang Ning's hands should have looked like this.

Chang Ning temporarily put the potatoes into a bowl, and then soaked them in clean water. Then Chang Ning washed his hands again before picking up the potatoes in the bowl.

The test of knife skills is not just how well you cut the vegetables, but also depends on many aspects. Is the chef clean and diligent?

Are raw materials wasted in the process of chopping vegetables? Is the knife sharpened?

These are the main aspects that test a chef's knife skills.

Since it is a test, Chang Ning does not want his work to be imperfect because of some avoidable details.

Next comes the main event. A certain rhythm of chopping vegetables begins to sound on the chopping board. Good chefs have their own rhythm. Chang Ning is not a chef, but he has his own experience in using knives.

It didn't take long to cut a potato. After Chang Ning finished cutting, Wang Xiaomao looked at the potato slices on the chopping board with confusion on his face.

"I asked you to cut potatoes into shreds, not potato slices."

"It's really shredded potatoes."

Putting down the kitchen knife, Chang Ning was also confused by Squad Leader Xiao Mao's words. So he lowered his eyes and shifted his eyes to the chopping board before suddenly realizing.

It turned out that he moved the knife too fast and the potato shreds stuck together.

Seeing that Chang Ning's expression was wrong, Wang Xiaomao was an experienced chef and knew the characteristics of the ingredients very well.

Potatoes tend to stick together because they contain starch, and they often stick to the kitchen knife when cutting them.

"Monitor, next is the moment to witness the miracle!"

Chang Ning put the potatoes into a bowl filled with water. The potato shreds looked like blooming flowers in the water, covering the bottom of the bowl.

At this moment, Wang Xiaomao's heart was filled with disbelief. How could an ordinary person achieve this level after practicing for more than ten days? It can only be explained by genius.

Wang Xiaomao used chopsticks to gently pick up the potato shreds in the bowl. The light yellow potato shreds shone in the air. If I could describe it in one word, it would be thin and translucent!

Through the potato shreds, Wang Xiaomao could really see the texture on the chopsticks. He even thought Chang Ning could make Wensi Tofu.

Seeing that squad leader Xiaomao didn't speak, Chang Ning felt uneasy in her heart, "Squad leader, my knife skills don't meet the requirements?"

"ah?

Your knife skills are already good."

Wang Xiaomao came back to his senses when he heard Chang Ning's voice. If he can't be good at knife skills, then doesn't he even deserve to cook?

"Okay, I will keep what I promised you. What kind of food do you want to learn?"

"Scrambled eggs with tomatoes!"

The monitor was about to teach him how to cook, and Chang Ning quickly named the dish he had been thinking about for a long time.

This dish is a memory of his childhood. When he was a child, his mother would make him scrambled eggs with tomatoes every day. Moreover, this dish was served with rice, and Chang Ning would never forget the taste.

Unfortunately, the place that cannot be reached is the distance, and the place that cannot be returned is the hometown.

Chang Ning is in the military camp and has very few vacations, so he can only express his longing for him with this dish.

"Are you sure? I can cook most of the eight major cuisines, such as Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, Dongpo Pork and so on."

Wang Xiaomao couldn't believe that he would rather waste a lot of effort just to learn a simple dish like scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Isn't it just a matter of skill?
