Changed my mind about prepping veg for service after a crazy Friday

We got slammed with a 12-top walk-in right at 7pm, and my usual rough chop on the mirepoix was too slow. My sous, who I thought was just being picky, had prepped everything into perfect brunoise. He tossed me his container and we flew through the orders. That tiny dice cooked in half the time and made the sauce way better. Anyone else have a small prep trick that saved your butt?

Yeah, that brunoise is a lifesaver for any quick-cooking sauce or soup, honestly.

My buddy Dave's soup went from bland to amazing with just a tiny brunoise.
