Ah, the wonders of nonexpertvillage. Sometimes I come here just to chack my preconceptions, and they are almost always right.

A julienne is not match stick size. You’re thinking of a pont neuf.

You demonstrated the proper procedure, but the size you produced was much too large. It would be like if I said I was going to teach you how to cut a boucatiere, and then I cut you a vapeur or a chateu instead.

Thats not juliennne.

At first i thought that it was like that too, then i got yelled at by the chef for doing it wrong.

July 30, 2010 3:52 am

it does matter presentation is just the fun of it you have to cook cut veggies at the same rate and uniformly and the only way to do that is to cut it right thats why they have measurements for each style so it can cook right

Interesting. Safe and Slow.
But for Restaurant or Hotel.

I think i have to double the speed for serving it.

i’m surprised you haven’t chopped off a finger by now..

July 30, 2010 6:49 am

Whats you guys don’t understand is the average person doesn’t care if its a julienne or an alumette cut they care about basic presentation and taste.

July 30, 2010 6:54 am

That looks like match sticks to me…there’s a difference

July 30, 2010 7:11 am

WRONG an alumette is 1/8 julienne of potato

July 30, 2010 7:13 am

July 30, 2010 7:45 am

you are wrong..an alumette is 1/16, julienne is i/8 which is bigger

July 30, 2010 8:24 am

you are wrong..an alumette( 1/16) is smaller than a julienne(1/8)

July 30, 2010 9:11 am
