Julienne, allumette, or French cut, is a culinary knife cut in which the food item is cut into long thin strips, similar to matchsticks.[1] Common items to be julienned are carrots for carrots julienne, celery for céléris remoulade , potatoes for julienne fries, or cucumbers for naengmyeon .
Trimming the ends of the vegetable and the edges to make four straight sides makes it easier to produce a uniform cut. A uniform size and shape ensures that each piece cooks evenly and at the same rate.[2] The measurement for julienne is 3 mm ×ばつ 3 mm ×ばつ 40 mm–50 mm (0.12 in ×ばつ 0.12 in ×ばつ 1.57 in–1.97 in). Once julienned, turning the subject 90 degrees and dicing finely will produce brunoise (3 mm ×ばつ 3 mm ×ばつ 3 mm (0.12 in ×ばつ 0.12 in ×ばつ 0.12 in)).
The first known use of the term in print is in François Massialot's Le Cuisinier Royal et Bourgeois (1722 edition).[1] The origin of the term is uncertain.
