      then do the same with a seam on the other side

    This is the first one that I've disagreed with the chef on. I cut the top off, including the seed core and then slice some off the bottom. Then I take the pepper, cut a slit into the side, which allows you to flatten the whole pepper out into a "sheet" from there you just chop the entire sheet into strips. You can also remove the crown from the core and the bottom part if you want and chop those up, so you get more yield from your pepper. As for the pith, I don't think I've ever removed that, but I guess you could if you really felt you needed to...

      That's the difference between time efficiency and food efficiency.
      If you go for speed of preparation you tend to loose a bit of the food.
      If you go for saving most of the food, you tend to loose quite a bit of time.
      You choose what is more important to you.

    Look at the waste the chef has compared to the regular people. Pretty sure you can get more out of the pepper than the way he does it. I know I do... It might not the the fastest/easiest way, but at least I use pretty much all of the pepper (ofcourse no seeds, stem and white parts).

    The so called pro is wasting so much of the pepper you can tell he doesn't own a restaurant of his own. Product waste(shrinkage) is the third most common reason that so many new restaurants go bankrupt. First being lack of planning/budgeting for your first year of payroll in your original business plan followed by having expensive products/ingredients on the menu when a less expensive menu with cheaper products/ingredients will do the same job. Bringing us back to waste as number three reason.
