Cutting Carrots

Cutting carrots is actually quite easy if you do it right.

1) Wash your carrot well and trim off any dark spots as well as any green tops.

2) To make the carrot more managable, cut the carrot into several sections. Depending on the size of your carrot will determine how many piece you will need to make. I like working with about 3 inch sections.

3) Take each section and cut it in half so that you have a flat section to lay on your cutting board.

4) Make several, usually 2 or 3 lengthwise cuts to each of your carrot pieces.

5) Now just cut across the pieces that you cut lengthwise.

You now have a diced carrot that was quick and easy.
