I think that's the first main thing a chef should know how to do, right?
We were given a whole lot of vegetables and fruits & had to practice the following cuts: Chiffonade, Brunoise, Jardiniere, Macedonian, Julienne, Wedges & the Diamond cut. I won't lie, I found it tough, especially because we had to hold the knife the proper way you're supposed to hold a knife ( was SO uncomfortable! ) & couldn't just cut anyhow.
Anyway, the picture below show what my cuts looked like. My Chef Lecturer, Chef Julia said that my wedges cut ( the orange wedges in the top left hand corner next to the diamond cut cucumbers ) was really good! LOL I guess practice will make perfect when it comes to the rest of the cuts :)
