PRO Tips For Cutting Cabbage into Wedges and Strips
➡️ It looks very easy to make, isn’t so? Yes, it’s really simple to wedge a cabbage, but you still have to learn some basics about how to cut cabbage correctly. Here are a few cooking tips to remember when you learn how to cut cabbage into wedges:
- remove the old withered leaves before chopping, you don’t want to eat them, aren’t you?
- use just a very sharp knife, this is one of the golden rules in the kitchen, doesn’t matter what are you going to cut
- use a knife with a wide blade, you’ll work much easier and faster
- use a large chopper to avoid cutting other things around than cabbage
- hold the cabbage chunks very firm and press them to the chopper when you wedge, if the blade slides a little you can cut yourself pretty bad
- control strictly the thickness of the cabbage wedges with your fingers by making cuts straight in front of them
- choose right the thickness of the cabbage strips – medium-sized for mixed vegetable salad, stew, or stir fry, very thin for coleslaw (this is just a recommendation, you can wedge or chop the cabbage any way you like…)
