I have poured 3/4" strips and removed them from the mold (in many pieces, but there should be enough to make enough squares for my tool). I am having some trouble cutting the strips into squares using a hot knife. I put the knife in boiling water and it seems pretty hot but it's not hot enough to make even one cut, much less the five the Texereau describes.
Should the knife be even hotter? Is there a different technique I should use? Thanks for any help.
