hi I'm Frank I'm a chef teah and super colored education and today we're gonna learn how to cut every fruit when you hear the hammer alarm you know what that means did I ever slice it great you can slice a grape I have and if you're a professional chef your cooks ate you for it but if you ever want to slice a grape get a small paring knife there's two ways you can do it you can cut along where the stem is can also slice it into fine slices but you want to cut them right before you use them all so they're just gonna get really weird and slimy this is a strawberry okay a couple of things you want to do you want to take off the hull give it a little twist if there's still a little hard piece in there get a really sharp paring knife and just the tip goes in here and you can turn the strawberry around and get that little hard piece of stem out if a nice tart or a salad but you just don't want to get that little piece of stem in there it's kind of like what's the word I'm looking for I guess hard these are figs a lot of times you'll see these dry fresh figs are a treat just take the stem off cut it in half but look how beautiful the flesh is and basically everything on this fig is edible you just got to be really careful with them because they tend to break up so if you're gonna put figs on a salad or in a dish I would cut them and then place them on later on if you're gonna roast them that's great just to remember they don't like being beat up too much this is a plum has a little stone in the center really easy to take out so all I'm really gonna do is cut it down the center from the stem ends follow it all the way around give it a twist the seed comes out if you want you can take your knife and pull the seed out like this but I also like to cut it into quarters so I'll just cut it one more time give it a twist and the seed just pops right out from here you can slice the palm nice and thin if you recommend leaving the skin on the plum I think the skin really adds some sort of texture and flavor to it this is a lime I'm gonna show you how to cut them for tacos or beer and this is how I do it cut it in half put it on the flat side cut it in half again and then I usually cut it into little smaller pieces because I'm going to serve it either on a plate or stuff it in a beer and that's a cut line this is a lemon a lot of different ways you can cut this I'm gonna cut it into Supremes I cut both ends off just past where the pith is and then I'm gonna peel it all the way around I'm gonna follow the contour of the lemon trying to get all the pith off get rid of our skin and then we're gonna take this and cut it in between the segment's just to get those two primes you can go back afterwards and take out the seeds I'm just trying to cut on the edge of it so that I get nice even slices of lemon and that's how I cut a lemon these are kiwi berries they are adorable what would you do with Kiwi berries is just take the little stem off right in your mouth well we're gonna cut one open and look how beautiful that is there's not much you have to do with cut them sir Kiwi berries delicious and adorable this is a long end fruit or a long in they grow on trees obviously they got the stems there and it's a close cousin of lychee fruit really all you want to do is kind of pierce the skin you can just kind of crack it and then open it up it kind of just squeezes out into your hand you can't cut it away from the seed but they tend to cling to the seed a little and the flesh is kind of this really cool translucent flesh it's sweet its fragrant its juicy great for cocktails great for desserts these are gooseberries they have this beautiful kind of husk and actually when it hangs from the plant looks kind of like a lantern you peel the husk away and you're just basically gonna cut it you have almost like a citrusy taste to them and just a little sour but it'd be a great condiment for things that are fatty even maybe something a little
