How to cut potatoes without touching the knife
There are ways to cut potatoes without sticking to the knife: use ceramic knives to reduce the water content of potatoes.

Skills of cutting vegetables:
1. First of all, the first one is straight knife cutting, which is the most familiar one. Generally, this knife method is used to cut shredded potatoes, shredded green bamboo shoots, shredded cucumbers and other vegetable raw materials. The raw materials are pressed with the left hand, and the knife is held in the right hand. The knife and the raw materials should be vertical, and the raw materials should be cut directly. The focus of the knife is on the front end of the knife. There is a saying in the industry that the front is cut and then cut in the middle.
