Answer: The correct answer is A; cut into large pieces.
Step-by-step explanation:
When cooking a meal using the braising technique, the meat, including poultry, and vegetables need to be cut into large pieces. The vegetables and other items in the braise will be covered with enough liquid to only cover the meat and/or vegetables. The braise is then covered and simmered so that the food cooks evenly with the heat and steam. When making a stew, the vegetables should all be cut into equal slices.
