PARALLEL CUTTING
• This is a technique that is
used to cut broad, thin
slices of vegetables and
meat. You accomplish this
by laying your food flat on a
cutting surface and angling
your knife blade parallel to
the cutting surface, in order
to cut through the food.

The Chiffonade
The chiffonade types of cuts
are used when slicing very
thin items such as herbs or
leafy vegetables such as
spinach. Start by stacking
the items you are looking to
slice. Then roll up the items,
producing a cigar-shaped
roll. Once it’s rolled, start
slicing to produce a nice
chiffonade suitable for
garnishing and other
purposes.
