Chapter 10 Learning to Cook
"What's the matter?" The system was still cold and seemed to have no emotion at all.

Zhang Xu thought about it, now there is not much work at home, and the most important thing is cooking, he can't help much.

Although it is difficult to accumulate points, you still need to use them when you need to use them.

"System, I want to spend six points to learn how to cook," Zhang Xu said.

Cooking skills are divided into three levels. Beginner cooking skills only need one point, intermediate cooking skills need two points, and advanced cooking skills need three points.

It takes six points to learn all of them.

Zhang Xu thought, since he has learned it, he should learn everything. Even if he knows some home-cooked dishes at the elementary level, he may not be able to do it.

Anyway, six points are not much.

What Zhang Xu didn't know was that he still underestimated the system.

The junior culinary skills in the system are equivalent to the level of a five-star chef in the world.

Intermediate cooking skills are equivalent to the realm of a chef. In this world, there are no ingredients that cannot be handled, and there are no dishes that cannot be cooked.Moreover, he will be very proficient in at least three cuisines.

As for advanced cooking skills, which cost three points, it is equivalent to the level of a fairy chef.

It has never existed in the world where Zhang Xu lives.

Only those immortal worlds in the world of cultivating immortals will have one or two immortal chefs who cook for those immortal emperors and emperors.

These fairy chefs are also immortal cultivators, and they have a long life, which increases the time for them to study cooking.

Not to mention all kinds of dishes, they also know how to handle all kinds of ingredients in the fairy world.

Moreover, various dishes with different styles will be created.

If Zhang Xu knew this, he would definitely not exchange for advanced cooking skills.

For him, it was a waste of points.

Because not to mention the ingredients inside, even the condiments, he might not have seen it, let alone obtained it.

And the system didn't remind him, even, with a sneaky smile, he could get three more points.

The system is still cold, "Ding dong, the host will consume six points in exchange for basic cooking skills, intermediate cooking skills, and advanced cooking skills. The experience value will be increased by six."

Then, a huge amount of information flooded into Zhang Yanxu's mind.

After Zhang Xu received the information, he realized that he had been tricked by the system again.

What is a fairy chef?And those ingredients, what are phoenix eggs, unicorn arms, three fruits, fairy vegetables, what are they?

I am afraid I will never see these ingredients in my life.

What else is the mincemeat powder that grows in the fairyland, the seasoning powder made from jadeite fruit, and the fairy pepper that grows on the fairy jade... I have never even heard of it.

There is no way to get these things...

However, there is no way to exchange it.

Zhang Xu dejectedly opened the property bar.

Host: Zhang Xu (human race)

Power: 13
Speed: 12
Mental Power: 16
Level: Level 107 (10000/9893) needs [-] experience points to upgrade.

Points: 37
Note: (Human attribute average is 10).

Seeing that the points had reached 37 points, Zhang Xu really wanted to pinch the system's neck and vent his anger.

Just don't know, does this system have a neck.

Hearing that grandfather Zhang Yuanli had already started chopping meat in the kitchen, Zhang Xu walked in.

Seeing what was on the chopping board, Zhang Xu knew what his grandfather wanted for dinner.

A boiled meatball, a stir-fried lettuce, and a fried celery with bacon.It's all home cooking.

They are also Zhang Xu's favorite dishes.

The bacon has been marinated for a long time, and Zhang Yuanli has been reluctant to eat it.

Now when the grandson comes home, he takes out some to eat.It is usually hung on the roof of the kitchen.

Of these three dishes, the most complicated one is boiled meatballs.

Zhang Xu said, "Grandpa, let me chop the meat."

"You can't chop well. This chopping meat looks simple, and there is a lot of knowledge." Zhang Yuanli said without turning his head.

Zhang Xu immediately remembered the method of chopping meat he had learned.

Chop meat is divided into single-knife chop and double-knife chop.

Double knife chop is also called row chop.

When holding knives in both hands, keep a certain distance, not too close or too far away. The distance between the front ends of the two knives can be a little closer, and the distance between the roots of the knives can be a little farther.

Chopping is to use the strength of the wrist, from left to right, and then from right to left, repeatedly chopping.

Use both hands alternately during operation, and perform the ups and downs in a rhythmic manner.

At the same time, the raw materials should be constantly turned.

As for single-knife chopping, although it is simpler than double-knife chopping, the knife must be placed accurately and strive to be even.

It is also somewhat difficult.

However, whether it is chopping with two knives or single-knife chopping, the skills and methods have long been engraved in Zhang Xu's mind like instinct.

What Zhang Xu lacks is practice.

Zhang Xu took his grandfather's arm and brought the knife over, "Grandpa, I will take care of the cooking in the future. When you are old, you should also eat the meals made by your grandson."

With that said, Zhang Xu picked up the knife and began to chop the meat.

It seemed a little rusty at first, but after a few tens of seconds, Zhang Xu's movements began to become proficient.

It looks like a small worker who has been chopping meat for decades.

The movement is neat and skillful, the knife is dropped accurately, and the rhythm is stable.

Zhang Yuanli looked on in surprise, he didn't even know when his grandson learned how to chop meat.

Suddenly, Zhang Yuanli felt sad: It seems that his grandson is working very hard at Shenhai University, otherwise he would not have learned how to cook so well.

Soon, Zhang Xu chopped the meat.

Zhang Xu started seasoning, adding green onions, minced ginger, egg whites, refined salt, starch...

After thinking about it, Zhang Xu picked up half a steamed bun, kneaded it into dregs, and added it to the meat.

This is Zhang Xu's exclusive secret book.The average chef doesn't know that.

The addition of steamed bun slag will make it easier to shape the meatballs, and it will make the meatballs taste better.

Then, Zhang Xu started to stir.

Stir in one direction for about 10 minutes, the condiments, steamed bread residue, starch, and egg white are completely integrated with the meat, and it is time to squeeze the meatballs.

Zhang Xu skillfully began to squeeze the balls.

Squeeze out a ball and throw it into the pot.

But it took a few minutes to squeeze all the meat stuffing into balls.

Soon, the meatballs floated up, and Zhang Xu put in the fungus, salt, rice wine, soy sauce, and monosodium glutamate prepared by Zhang Yuanli.

Skim off the froth, put it into a soup bowl, and drizzle with sesame oil.

Even if this boiled meatball is done.

The white and tender meatballs looked very attractive.Even standing a few steps away, you can smell a tangy fragrance.

And Zhang Yuanli was stunned watching from the side.

Seeing his grandson's skillful movements, he was filled with admiration.With such a level, I am afraid that the chefs of some five-star hotels can't match it.

What Zhang Yuanli didn't know was that when it came to cooking, there was no one in this world who could match Zhang Xu.

What Zhang Xu lacked was a little experience.

Let him try to process different ingredients and make different dishes, and he can complete the transition from theory to practice just once.

Zhang Xu looked at the remaining two dishes, "Grandpa, come down with two dishes, I'll fry them."
