Dice Cuts Technique

To begin cutting a dice, first cut sticks. As with stick cuts, the technique for dices is identical for every size.

Line up several batons side by side on your cutting board.

Hold them down with your guide hand in the claw position.

Position your guide fingers so that, when the knife blade is flush against them, it is exactly 1/3″ (1 cm) in front of the end; then cut straight down.

Repeat step 3 until the batons are completely cut into medium dice. Discard the last dices that might not be as regular.
