Small dice diagramSmall dice: Even 6 mm cubes — the everyday dice for salads, salsas and quick sauces. Size 6 × 6 × 6 mm. Drawn to scale with a 1 centimetre bar.

How to cut it

  1. Cut into 6 mm batonnet.

  2. Line up a few sticks.

  3. Cut across at 6 mm.

Why this shape

Small enough to eat in one bite with other ingredients, large enough to keep crunch and colour.

Tips

  • For tomatoes, slice with a sharp or serrated knife and remove the watery seeds first if the salad should stay crisp.
