6. The exact origin of the term julienne is unknown, but likely
is derived from a chef who popularised the technique. It predates both Escoffier and Careme, so I'm thinking there was likely some Chef of old named Jules or Julian or even Julio for which the cut was named.
Perhaps noteworthy is that French Fries are not julienne cut, regardless of Ronco would have you believe. They are batonnet.
