To prevent grape tomatoes from rolling while cutting, place them on a flat surface and hold them in place with your non-dominant hand while using a sharp knife to slice through them with your dominant hand.
It is personal preference, but cutting grape tomatoes crosswise can help prevent them from rolling and can also create a more visually appealing presentation.
One method is to place a handful of grape tomatoes on a plate or cutting board and gently press another plate on top to hold them in place. Then, use a sharp knife to slice through the tomatoes all at once.
While it is possible to use a serrated knife, it is not recommended as it can cause the tomatoes to become crushed instead of cleanly sliced. A sharp, smooth-edged knife is best for cutting grape tomatoes.
To prevent grape tomatoes from squirting juice while cutting, make sure your knife is sharp and use a sawing motion instead of pressing down firmly. You can also try cutting them in a bowl to catch any juice that may escape.
