6 prep tips to chop vegetables faster (and safer)
Set up your station, batch your prep and keep slices even — small changes that save time every night.
1. Clear your space
A cluttered board is a slippery board. Give yourself room before you start.
2. Keep a scrap bowl
One bowl for peelings saves trips to the bin and keeps the board clear.
3. Prep everything first
Chop all your ingredients before you turn on the heat, so you're never rushing a cut while something burns.
4. Cut similar sizes
Even pieces cook evenly. Guiding your knife along a finger guard makes uniform slices easier.
5. Batch your prep
Chopping onions for two meals takes barely longer than for one. Store the extra in the fridge.
6. Wipe and reset
Wipe the board and your knife between ingredients — it keeps things tidy and stops food from sticking and sliding.
