Is there a difference between chopped plum tomatoes and diced?
diced implies evenly cut into Cubes



Chopped, means you closed your eyes and hacked away.



Taste wise, probably not., but tey look different
Reply:Chopped tomatoes are cut much finer than diced tomatoes. Chopped can be used for making sauce without additional chopping. Adding diced tomatoes to the chopped with make for a chunkier sauce. (Never use fresh tomatoes to make tomato sauce, its not as good.)
Reply:Chopped is larger, and not very uniform in size typically.



Diced is smaller and more uniform. Diced also typically implies a cube shape when done.



Most recipes it won't make much difference except personal preference. However, if you're making a stew or sauce, you will need to consider this. Diced will make a less chunky sauce and are more likely too "cook down" further, where chopped will give you a chunkier, more rustic finish.
Reply:Chopped is usually larger, diced is finer and more uniform. It really wont make a difference in your recipe.
Reply:Chopped is probably bigger pieces. Diced means in little squares. It's just prettier. No difference in taste - just presentation.
