Cooking Tips:
Julienne - Foods that have been
cut into thin, matchstick strips. The food (such as a potato) is
first cut into 1⁄8-inch-thick slices. The slices are stacked,
then cut into 1⁄8-inch-thick strips. The strips may then be cut
into whatever length is desired. If the object is round, cut a
thin slice from the bottom so it will sit firmly and not roll on
the work surface. Julienne is most often used as a garnish.
julienne v. To cut food into very thin strips. |
