CUTTING METHOD

A cutting method is a technique for precisely cutting food, typically vegetables, to achieve a
specific size, shape, and uniform texture for even cooking and presentation. Common methods
include dicing (cubes), julienne (thin matchsticks), slicing (thin, flat pieces), and chiffonade
(ribbons of leafy greens). For plant propagation, a cutting method involves taking a severed part
of a parent plant to grow a new one.

Culinary cutting methods

 Dicing: Cutting food into uniform cubes.

 Julienne: Cutting food into long, thin matchstick-like strips.

 Slicing: Cutting food into thin, flat pieces.

 Chiffonade: A technique for cutting leafy greens into fine ribbons.

 Chopping: Cutting food into irregular pieces.

 Mincing: Cutting food into very fine, small pieces.

 Batonnet: Similar to julienne but thicker sticks.

 Rondelle: Cutting round vegetables into coin shapes.

Other cutting methods

 Abrasive cutting: Cutting using an abrasive material, such as waterjet cutting.

 Mechanical cutting: Using a mechanical force to cut materials.

 Thermal cutting: Using heat to cut materials.

 Electrochemical cutting: Using an electrochemical process for cutting.
