3. Filleting - separation of meat from bones in fish, chicken, pork and others.
4. Concace - in this technique, the products must be arranged in small even cubes.
5. Carpaccio - One of the most famous ways to cut products is carpaccio. These are thinly sliced pieces of beef or beef that are flavored with olive oil and / or lemon juice.
The meat is baked for a few seconds - in practice it should be raw. It is then seasoned and cut across the fibers into pieces as thick as a sheet of paper.
Today, Carpaccio is prepared not only from meat, but also from fish and even from fruits and vegetables, and the name Carpaccio is used not only for the finished dish, but much more for the way the products are cut.
