cutting and garnishing


Explanation:
it should be the short form of 切菜 配菜 meaning respectively to cut the food/vegetables and to garnish the food/vegetable. I think it should fit in this context because it is about food processing from the raw material to the final dish.
I hope it will help! ;)

It seems intuition doesn't work very well for me, but my staircase wisdom tells me that here 配, literally matching, means very close to composing, or combining, that is, composing various ingredients into a dish. Hence 切配: cutting and composing.
