Hi Alan, great question.

 

You choose the method based upon what your desired result is. So the slicing motion is for slicing things like fruit and tomatoes. The chopping motion is good for cutting slices of harder vegetables like carrots, celery, onions, etc. The rocking motion is most appropriate for mincing something fine like garlic, onions, shallots, etc.

 

Let me know if you have any more questions.
