Fine Dice
- Cutting foods into uniform ⅛-inch cubes, ensuring rapid, even cooking and refined presentation in soups, salsas, and garnishes. Precise sizing delivers professional results.
Square off produce before cutting for stable surfaces.
Slice food into thin planks (⅛ inch), then stacks, then strips before cubing.
Use a sharp chef’s knife to avoid crushing delicate ingredients.
Work slowly for accuracy, then speed up with practice.
Rinse cut vegetables gently to remove excess starch in recipes needing clean flavor.
