Funny thing about cooking for the first time

"Food is the most important thing for the people, and the five flavors should be complete." Boys can be cooks, not to mention that I am a "woman" and can't cook. Isn't this a joke? Today is the weekend, and I have the idea of helping my mother cook.

Thinking about it, one foot has stepped into the kitchen. "Mom, mom, let me help you." I said this when I saw my mother cooking in the kitchen. Mother answered with a smile; "good! Our Rongrong (my nickname) has grown up and can help her mother. Well, you can cut the skin! "

Oh, don't look at this prickly skin, it's not easy to cut. This stinging skin ... just won't listen to me Smooth and stinging skin slides around the chopping board, as if it is deliberately aimed at me. I am in a hurry, regardless of the willy-nilly, across the board. But this knife is not easy to cut, but it almost cut my hand. Fortunately, my mother was quick-witted and grabbed the kitchen knife in my hand and said to me, "You can't peel it like this. Come, I'll teach you. " I saw my mother holding a knife in her hand, cutting a large piece of skin into small strips and saying, "Cutting strips is learned. You must cut each strip into small strips with a width of 1 cm and a length of 3 to 4 cm, so that the cut vegetables will look good. " The stinging skin must be flattened first and then cut from right to left. Pay attention to the posture of mother's left hand. Bend the index finger of the left hand to the little finger, stand side by side with the fingertip and press one centimeter away from the right side of the flat stinger skin. Holding a kitchen knife in his right hand, he chopped vertically next to his left fingernail. The right and left hands must cooperate well, cutting and retreating. After the right hand is cut off, the left hand should immediately retreat one centimeter, keeping the four fingers bent and the fingertips vertical. So as not to cut your finger. Come on, you try! "

I carefully picked up the kitchen knife and cut it one by one according to my mother's instructions. Hehe, it really worked. I am ecstatic.

This is just a small matter, but I have learned a truth: everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as you have confidence and patience, you will succeed!
