Five Impressive Tips to Cut Fruits and Vegetables in a Fancy Way

It is quite difficult to persuade kids to eat fruits and vegetables. They hardly care about what is healthy. All they want are food items that look real fancy besides of course tasting delicious. After talking with a fair share of qualified chefs, I have come up with a few simple yet impactful tricks of adding an extra zing to even the most ordinary fruits and vegetables. Please check them out right now.

Apple Wing

Invest in a top-notch fruit and vegetable cutter to take your apples into unimaginable heights! Cut the apple into six wedges of equal size by slicing lengthwise from side to side. Make two tiny perpendicular cuts at first through the wedge and see to it that they meet at 90-degree angles. Continue creating right angles into the wedges and then fan them into a sort of wing.

Avocado Rose

Have you ever thought you would come across a rose that will smell sweet as well as deliver healthy fats? Well that sounds strange! To make an avocado flower, scoop half of it and leave half of it intact. Slice thinly in half width wise and fan all the pieces into one lengthy line. Now roll the line in the shape of a rose. Just imagine the possibility you would have for your avocado toast.

Cabbage Chiffonade

Chiffonade could be defined as a French slicing strategy that translates into ‘made from rags’. Although it works well for any kind of leafy vegetables, most people use it for the red cabbage. Start by rolling the leaves of the cabbage in the shape of a cylinder and then cautiously slice from one corner of the cylinder to another. The outcome is delicate, long strips that look beautiful and pack flavorful punch.

Citrus Double Pinwheel Twist

A twist is considered a beautiful but simple way of displaying citrus fruits. Start slicing the fruit but do not go more than halfway. In case of the second slice, do cut all the way. Place the slice flat on the chopping board. Make a cut from beneath and twist the fruit. Fan the smaller pieces out to make vibrant and festive garnish.

Pineapple Boat

Any kind of food that comes with a serving vessel is of course a win. Slice the pineapple lengthwise into four sections and cut out the middle portion. Remove the skin and it will act as the plate. Slice the pineapple crosswise thinly and come back to the peel. Shift the slices with the best fruit and vegetable cutter in a zigzag pattern for complete effect.

Implementing the tricks stated above can quite successfully make fruits and vegetables the center of attraction in a dining room. The kids will be too engrossed in admiring the fascinating shapes, and would not even notice that the platter is something they hate. The parents will be happy about their efforts finally paying off. Their little ones are munching on nutritious food.
