TECHNIQUES
This technique is used for long vegetables, like carrots or cucumber. It makes attractive pieces and exposes more of the surface area of the vegetable. Hold the blade perpendicular to the board and cut straight down diagonally. Then roll the vegetable a quarter-turn, and cut straight down again at the same diagonal angle. Continue rolling and cutting in this way all along the length of the vegetable.
