Preparing Vegetables for Cutting
Prepare the vegetables by washing and peeling.
Top and tail the veg.
Now depending on the cut, slice the veg into required lengths.
On one side trim off a slice so that you have a flat surface to work with.
Now trim all the sides to produce an even-sided length.
From here you have the basis to cut any of the different vegetable cuts with ease.
Medium Dice Cut (Parmentier)
Medium Dice (Parmentier) can be made in the same way as the Large Dice (Carré), except with smaller measurements.
Prepare the vegetables as above and then cut into 1/2″ slices, turn and slice again into 1/2″ slices, now from the top slice 1/2″ cubes.
