What is a "basil chiffonade"?!

Answers:
Roll the basil leaves up like you're rolling a cigar then cut in real thin strips!. That's a chiffonade!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Chiffonade is a cooking technique in which herbs or leafy green vegetables (such as spinach and basil) are cut into long, thin strips!. This is generally accomplished by stacking leaves, rolling them tightly, then cutting across the rolled leaves with a sharp knife, producing fine ribbons!.
