Any brehs know how to cut vegetables like a chef WITHOUT a trip to the ER?

[Buddy]

I was prepping for this chili a bit earlier and as I was slicing the bell peppers for this food chopper I got and I finally realized.... this would actually be faster if I could cut like a chef. How do you do that safely?





Doc oughtta be entering the room any minute now

Why would I need to cut that fast if I'm not a chef?

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Nope. I go slow and still wear the glove…. The end product is all that matters… I’ll leave the showmanship to the pros

He's showing off, but see how on the holding hand he's curling his finger tips in.

You're still chefin that meal you just weren't paid for it

Practice. I been cooking for years so I know how to cut stuff. But I still chips my nails sometimes just being careless. Not no medical grade ish though

But something like chili sounds like a food processor can help.

Bell peppers are the worst cuz you gotta cut the core, stem, the white inner part, and it's shaped weird

1. Have a sharp knife. When I say sharp, I mean cut a piece of paper without dragging sharp.

2. Curl your fingers away like the chef is while holding your veg.

3. Practice.

It's severed at the knuckle




I'm lying about the ER part but I really am making chili and it got me wondering

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Yes

I was a cook for a minute before military

He’s even tucking in his fingertips just like they show you how to cut/prep

Honestly

It’s a fukking onion I probably would cut it that fast if I could too


fukk onions

 

[jdubnyce]

Nah
I cut them slow
Not trying to lose a finger(s)

 

[badboys11]

He shows you in the video


That's the proper way to hold the knife, complete control.

Then he curls his fingers back as he dices.


Almost impossible to cut yourself.

I got a solution for you. Go to Amazon and buy a vegetable chopper. I save so much prep time with this.

- quality knives only

- sharpen according to knife design or have them professionally done only

- practice

Slide against the knuckle of your finger.
