What is Rangiri?<\/h2>\n

Rangiri<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0(\u4e71\u5207\u308a) means random cut in Japanese, yet it\u2019s an intentional method. We use this vegetable cutting technique to create\u00a0irregular, angled chunks<\/strong>\u00a0by rotating the\u00a0ingredient\u00a0between each slice. You can use it to cut\u00a0root veggies, cucumbers, eggplants, and other cylindrical vegetables into\u00a0pieces of similar sizes. While they may have somewhat varied surfaces, they cook more evenly and absorb flavor well.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
