VIDEO: CUTTING TECHNIQUE

WHY IT IS IMPORTANT TO USE CUTTING TECHNIQUE ?

• The first reason is uniformity, lets use a carrot as an example. A carrot goes from very thin to very fat and in most cases people will cut a carrot as is. This leaves very thin pieces and thick pieces, this is important because of cook time. Thicker pieces will need more time to cook, if everything is uniform you can ensure that you have even, predictable cooking times.
• The second reason is aesthetics, when food is cut the correct way it will look professional and more appealing and most peoples apatite stems from food that looks appealing. Aesthetics is by far the most important part when it comes to cooking food. If you’re food doesn’t look appealing then nobody will want it.
