Gourmet: Midnight Vending-Chapter 391 - 356: Reaching Cooperation, Diligently Training Sword Skill!

The already bewildered Yang Wenhua was suddenly even more bewildered!

"No way, you’re... checking online?"

"Yeah, don’t you know?" Chen Mo deliberately acted surprised, "Nowadays, if you search on platforms like Little Blue Book or TikTok, you can find recipes for every dish, some even taught by master chefs from state banquets, they’re really handy."

Yang Wenhua felt his entire body starting to stiffen.

He shook his head hard, unwilling to believe what Chen Mo was saying.

He obediently went to the nearby stall to study his dough, but in reality, his peripheral vision kept glancing toward Chen Mo.

When he saw Chen Mo really sitting there pulling out his phone and scrolling through TikTok, he was dumbfounded.

Ordinary people, of course, didn’t know the magic of Chen Mo!

At this moment, Chen Mo tossed a piece of tofu into the slot, waiting for the recipe to appear.

As expected, what appeared was the famous Huaiyang dish, Stewed Shredded Dried Tofu.

[Stewed Shredded Dried Tofu is a rather special existence within Huaiyang cuisine.]

[In making this dish, knife skills determine the texture; the shredded tofu needs to be uniform in thickness. Too thick will make it tough, too thin will easily break, it’s best to cut it to the thickness of a matchstick.]

[The broth determines the layers, this dish must be made with clear chicken broth, avoid using rich broth.]

[The heat determines the color, too much heat will scatter the shredded tofu, prolonged cooking will make it soft and lose elasticity.]

Having read through the content, Chen Mo felt that most parts wouldn’t be a problem, except for the "knife skills," which were still a bit challenging.

This is also why Chen Mo had never made Wen Si Tofu.

The Black Blade allowed Chen Mo to easily dissect various animals, even perfectly deboning without leaving any meat on the bones.

But what it couldn’t do was quickly cut an ingredient into completely uniform sizes, especially in "shredded" form.

When making Lantern Shadow Beef in Sichuan, Chen Mo’s knife skills were ridiculed, but fortunately, he practiced hard and regained his footing.

Now, he’s facing this problem again.

"Just avoiding it isn’t the solution. System, is there a way to quickly master knife skills?" 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

[...]

Obviously, Chen Mo made the system speechless again, but the system was still very considerate, after all, Chen Mo was the master.

[I really can’t refuse you... There is a shortcut for knife skills, but it’s not recommended for you to learn.]

"Why? I don’t care, just give it to me."

[Because it’s quite wild.]

"Bring it on!"

[Alright.]

The dialogue disappeared, and a large amount of text appeared before him. Chen Mo pretended to look at his phone, but was actually reading attentively.

[Wild Blade Skill: Known for its wildness.]

[If you observe carefully, you’ll find that when we strike an object, the more we aim, the harder it is to hit.]

[But with a quick strike, as long as the first hit lands, it will continue to hit thereafter.]

Chen Mo thought about it, and it seemed to make sense.

It’s like hammering a nail; the more you take aim, the more likely you are to miss.

As long as you aim right the first time, relying on the initial momentum to keep striking, there shouldn’t be much of a problem.

[The Wild Blade Skill originates from this trait; this system cannot directly transfer the skill to you, you still need to practice, experience it yourself to master it.]

After reading, Chen Mo noticed that when he looked at the tofu, a golden dot, similar in color to a progress bar, appeared on the surface of the tofu.

And when Chen Mo picked up the Black Blade, he inexplicably felt an odd force in the blade pulling at him.

[Please remember, you must be fast!]
