Italian Meatball Sub - Cuso Cuts

My Italian Meatball Sub is one where you want napkins handy. But, that also makes it fun. Depending on how hungry you are, this recipe can feed one or three! Yes, I use a jar of premade tomato sauce here (egads!). It saves a bunch of time. 


PitMaster’s Memo: Knife Cuts – What is Chiffonade

Chiffonade is a fancy kitchen term for a specific knife cut. In cooking, things like fresh herbs and leafy greens come under the knife for Chiffonade (think basil, mint, spinach). The term Chiffonade means “made of rags,” and when you’re done cutting, you’ll see why. 

It’s easiest to explain wit han herb like basil. Gather some leaves fresh off a plant. Look for ones relatively the same width. Stack them. 

Next, roll up the leaves from the long side. Carefully slice the herb, keeping your knife in contact with the cutting board. Keep moving forward. You’ll end up with strips of the herb, all similarly sized.
