Technique: Dicing

About

A cutting technique used to produce cube shapes.

To dice, first "square up" the item being cut by removing the ends and any rounded sides, creating a rectangular shape.  Cut the rectangle into flat planks of the desired size.  Cut the planks into strips of the same measurement, then cut across the strips to produce cubes.

A small dice measures 1/4 inch, a medium dice is 1/2 inch, and a large dice measures 3/4 inch.
