Whether you’re making roasted potatoes, potato soup, breakfast potatoes, mashed potatoes, or plenty other things… knowing how to dice potatoes is important, and I’m gonna show you how to do it. Let’s get started.
Last week I talked about how to cut potatoes into french fries. Well this week I’m gonna show you how to cut potatoes into cubes, also known as dicing. And next week, maybe I’ll talk about potatoes again! We’ll see… I love potatoes so deal with it!
Before me I’ve got a cutting board, a large sharp knife, and two potatoes-one medium and one small. The size of the potato doesn’t matter when dicing so it’s a great way to use up smaller potatoes that aren’t good for baked potatoes or french fries.
I’m gonna first demonstrate a large dice, and then show how to do a smaller more fine dice.

A zoomed-in shot to have in addition would be great since it’ll add clear visuals to your already incredible directions
👆🏼This
I’m gonna go watch another video cause I really can’t see well enough :/
@@guitar_man_15 you can actually zoom in on videos now using the TH-cam app!
Genius
Helpful, especially for the fine diced!👏🏼👏🏼
As a teenager learning to cook this was so helpful💪😭
A Potato learning to dice potatoes… not sure how I feel about that. Haha!
I love your cooking videos. Your videos which focus on cutting veggies, friuts, and poultry really, really help me so much to learn how to cook. I have always wanted to learn how to cook so I can make healthy meals for me and my family. Please continue to make more videos focusing on prep! You are the only youtuber that helps me learn… and so quickly too. Thank you so much for sharing your videos with us Dennis! I really appreciate them!!!
Thanks for the feedback! I’ll see what I can do!
Hooray and thank you! 🎉 After one or two clumsy attempts on my own, now I get it. Appreciate your time to make this helpful video. 😊
Trying to see how to cut potatoes in this vid like:
🔎 🔭 🔬
Did you know that there’s a ZOOM FUNCTION on cameras!?! I learned about it after I made this video…
I'm probably considered a heathen in the cooking world. I got one of those meal kits delivered to my door and I'm trying to figure out how to cook it lol. First direction was to dice the potatoes and I wasn't sure how to do it properly. Your video was simple and easy to follow. I got my potatoes properly diced ;). Thanks a lot!
You’re welcome… you heathen
That fine cut is ideal for burritos as well
Super helpful, thank you Dennis! 😊
Great video! Really straightforward and helpful!
Needed this. Thanks.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! Easy to follow and concise!
Great video, thank you. 🙌🏼
here for the fine dice
Today I have come to learn to cut potatoes.
I appreciate your teaching.
Thanks dennis 👍
idk what zooming in would do to help as suggested in the other comments. it's pretty straight forward. you just need to know which way to hold the potatoes then cut them. easy. thanks for the video.
Thanks!
Thank you
You made it look so easy .
Practice plus a good quality knife. I love Cutco brand knives!
Could I ask to see a video on how to make potato pancakes? These recent videos are turning me into a Potato Head.
I’ll put it on my list!
@@DennisfromScratch Did you ever make it? I was going to make some last night but I messed them up and I need a good video!
Great video bro keep making good content. I am now a great professional potato slicer thanks to you😁
Potatoes across the world are quaking in their “roots”
Straight to the point video, pretty rare these days. You sir have got yourself a new subscriber! Thanks for the video 😊
Little known fact: Straight-to-the-point is my middle name.
Are you serious? It almost took a minute for him to start it
Ok
Thanks my guy
Thank you so much. Very helpful video. New subscriber.
I just moved out and obvs have cut a potato before but it’s always been a sloppy/uneven thing. I want to try making nice dinners for myself so it’s really nice to have guides for the basics like this which can feel a little embarrassing to ask people about. Great tutorial!
That's great I always like to use Irish potato in fish tea👍
i love potatoes too, dennis. ty for a great tutorial!!
Potatoes are the best!
:) so helpful
The progress bar makes me feel like I’m playing a video game
New Sub!!! My Aunt Used To Make Potato Salad With The Small Cubed Potatoes And I Never Learned How She Diced Them Before She Passed.
Really happy to help. Hope you make your aunt proud!
@@DennisfromScratch Thank you :-)
Thanks dude I just upgraded my skills
Good video!
Good comment!
Slices, fries, cubes. 👌🏼
I mean yeah.. a zoomed in shot would be great but come on put some glasses on! Great video now I’m about to chop some potatoes😊
Haha!
Saved me from a whooping
This video saved me because I didnt realize large cut potatoes was a thing
This is so instructive! Thank you for sharing it
You’re welcome
Thanks bro because my mom taught me you are 17 you are not cut potatoes proper way so your video help m a lot 😁😁😁🤟
I'm a beginner, so this was very helpful! Did you wash the potato first?
I usually use organic potatoes, so I only wash them if there’s a lot of dirt. If I’m using industrial (non-organic) potatoes, I always wash and sometimes peel them since they come in contact with pesticides and other chemicals.
@@DennisfromScratch thank you so much! I will be sure to look for organic potatoes
Very helpful sir but please keep the camera a bit near to you so that it's more clear to the viewers
I will keep it in mind!
I love potatoes too but they do not love me so much as they pack pounds on me. Lol!!!!!
Every time I cut a potato it all sticks to my knife and makes a starchy mess, not sure what I’m doing wrong. I usually wash them then peel first.
You’re probably not doing anything wrong. You might try rinsing your knife a couple times while cutting, or possibly putting a light coating of grease on your knife (butter, lard, olive oil).
Another option is to change the knife you’re using. My friend is a professional Cutco representative, and he likes to use the cheese knife for cutting potatoes because it prevents the potato from sticking to the knife. Here’s a link to the Cutco cheese knife, but any cheese knife will work. www.cutco.com/products/product.jsp?item=cheese-knife
Thank you bro now i can tell my crush i know how to cook😂😭
Go now, my student. Impress your crush!
@@DennisfromScratch yes i will!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
What size of potato should I use if I’m going to make breakfast burritos?
I would use a small dice.
What knife are you using?
It’s called the Cutco 7" Santoku. All the Cutco knives are great though. Here’s a link to it: www.cutco.com/products/product.jsp?item=santoku
@@DennisfromScratch thanks! I actually use one from that brand. Yes they are excellent
Thanks again
Can't see !! Why didn't you zoom !!!!!!!! 🙄
In situations like this, there’s only one thing to do…
PANICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@DennisfromScratch 😆
is it really that hard to tell what's going on?
@@krimbii He’s instructing how to do something and only using about 10% of the screen to show it. The rest is dedicated to how nice his kitchen and sweater are.
@BluePedalsRock You forgot to say how nice my hair is.
but what about the cubes cut out of the tails that are way smaller than the rest? how to i get every piece to be evenly sized?
Potatoes are round. So you cant get all the cubes to be perfectly sized. You just have to get close.
@@DennisfromScratch then i'll cut the potatoes into rectangles and make baked potato skin. easy fix. found it elsewhere.
@@SuXiiColdHand a problem I often have is trying to be too perfect with these things when cooking, and it sounds like you maybe do as well! I have to actively remind myself that having some smaller pieces in whatever you’re cooking will not make a big difference most of the time, and some times it can even leave you with really nice crispy pieces as a bonus! As long as you try to get the majority of them around the same size, you’ll probably be fine.
@@SuXiiColdHand This isn't a Michelin star cooking video
cheers for potatoes.
Thank you❣️
Thanks! Also you sound like patrick mahomes
That’s my secret identity.
Any kind of hash 👀
Videos pretty good but the cameras a mile away
Thanks! Yeah, I’ve started doing close-ups in my more recent videos.
@@DennisfromScratch awesome haha I did figure it out so thank you for the information.
You couldn’t zoom in?!
Thank you for your extremely helpful comment. I will take into account all of the well thought philosophies you have shared. I now realize I am but a withering husk of the great and famed TH-camr I hoped to be. This truly is a moment of awakening.
@@DennisfromScratchWhat a very odd passive aggressive comment to make towards legitimate criticism.
@@ThePerro lmao fr
even if you zoom in its still potatoes xD all jokes aside though, have you tried a magnifying glass.....? pepega
@@ThePerro there's a way to formulate criticism so that it's not responded to in that way. Keyword: respect.
"Hey, love the video but could you please zoom in next time. Thank you!"
The I’m eog
In my opinion this video is about cutting potatoes into medium and small pieces. There was no information about cutting into truly large pieces and I was forced to seek another video. Thanks and farewell.
Ok. Bye! 👋
Can’t even see what’s going on the cameras so far away far away
My greatest apologies.
This video doesn't have any potatoes in it. Fake news.
Jk I saw you're super sarcastic comments so I decided to say something stupid lol. Great video though thanks.
My lawyer will be reaching out to start the slander lawsuit.
@@DennisfromScratch I'll be waiting.
You shoulda zoomed the camera in. No like for you.
Sorry but the camera angle is not helpful.
My deepest apologies. Decisions were made. Mistakes happened. But from this day forward, I solemnly promise to have better camera angles. We shall move forward-united as one, strong in the face of evil, proud to stand as brothers. Good night, and may God bless America!
Terrible.
ok
Thanks!
Thank you
