Rondelle is a cut in which cylindrical vegetables, such as carrots, cucumbers, or zucchini, are sliced perpendicular to their length into evenly thick rounds. The term comes from the French word for a small round shape. It is one of the most common basic vegetable cuts, used for both cooked dishes and raw presentations. Slice thickness can be adjusted to suit the recipe.
