Preparing Fresh Vegetables
• Wash all vegetables thoroughly.
• Scrub well unpeeled vegetables,
like potatoes for baking.
• Wash green leafy vegetables in
several changes of cold water.
• After washing, drain well and
refrigerate lightly covered to
prevent drying.
1. WASHING
• Do not soak vegetables for long
periods to prevent flavor and nutrient
loss.
• Cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower may
be soaked for 30 minutes in cold
salted water to eliminate insects.
• Limp vegetables can be soaked
briefly in cold water to restore
crispness.
2. SOAKING
• Peel vegetables as thinly as possible.
• Cut vegetables into uniform pieces for
even cooking
• Treat vegetables that brown easily with
acid (potatoes, eggplants, sweet
potato) or hold under water until ready
to use.
• Save edible trim for soups, stocks and
purees.
3. PEELING & CUTTING
Basic Knife Cuts
1. Chopping - done with a straight, downward cutting motion.
2. Chiffonade (shredding) – making very fine parallel cuts.
3. Dicing – producing cube shapes
4. Mincing – producing very fine cut usually for onions and garlic.
