  • "Julienne" (from the French julienne) originally refers to a technique for cutting young vegetables into thin strips, typically used in summer for French soups and salads. In modern cooking, the term describes the cold prep — slicing — of vegetables meant for soups or sauces, which gives the most delicate texture or speeds up cooking for young vegetables and their shoots. In practice, julienne most often means cutting root vegetables into thin strips and slicing onions and tomatoes into thin rings. Salads of such thinly cut vegetables are called juliennes, and a soup made with vegetables cut this way is a julienne soup. In Russia, though, "julienne" refers to a dish of mushrooms baked in sour cream or cream under a cheese crust (usually in a cocotte dish). Chicken and seafood julienne are very popular too.
