Cutting a cup of chives until every day until this Reddit says they’re perfect. Day 4


I know they’re a bit long but I’m working on consistency. Once I feel consistent and confident I will work on getting them shorter

    Man, have you seen us here on Reddit.

    You’ve just consigned yourself to cutting chives for eternity.

    Getting better! What are they used for? Soup i do that size but garnish normally like 1mm wide at most.

    Youre getting more consistent but still need to go thinner.

    Better and more consistent every day. Try to get those cuts uniform, even if they’re not the shortest.

    The bartender says someone keeps taking all the green straws…

    They look wet, like your knife wasn’t sharp enough or something and squished their juices out instead of cutting through clean. Idk but they look wet lol

    Between you and the tomato guy over on r/OnionLovers it’s been a hell of an entertaining food week on reddit. Thanks!

    Orient them all the same direction. I want every one of them lined up for inspection!

    Im the one who told you to sharpen and rock your knife. How are you sharpening? Because they looked better last week. These are smushed and wet because your knife isnt as sharp.

    Please tell me youre not using an accusharp.

    Noticeably more consistent but way too thick. Great improvement though. See ya tomorrow!

    Could be bad chives… we cut so many chives for service in my last restaurant, they came in perfect everyday… one time we ran out during service and chef shut the whole line down and made us all cut chives … foh was pissed lol.

    My place now we get chives from who knows when I have to pick thru a lot of them. Strop then cut chives before you do other prep. I had a knife I just kept sharp for chives only, and used other knives for my prep

    Too wet, you need to dry the insides of the chives.

    Consistency better but still too big. We’ll be back tomorrow chef

    I dont like that there are stray pieces on the side of the bowl. Not this time, friend

    Day 4 of practicing my over-critical review of chive cutting until it’s perfect: Not quite good enough, friend.
