[{"selector":"#anim-91a337f3-a1c6-4c64-8d9e-fc593bee550d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f80d3b91-090d-47e7-909f-5227b3e13b2c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(115.55555%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e76bdbee-21e5-405b-bb9f-476546cfb128","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b79b3154-aebe-4c50-9b62-d655bbd42cca","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(100.00000%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] If you’re far from a professional baker, then you may choose to stick to a single swift slash as your preferred method of scoring.

When performing a primary slash you want to go in with a single swift motion, poising the blade or bread lame at a 90 degree angle,

[{"selector":"#anim-00b83581-1767-482a-9f2c-e7f5cf03a8d7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-39893a97-839c-4842-8eb7-2c7f095dcfe6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-119.3038%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8775f230-9c8c-4d85-bf20-8911048d7880","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-1a524de1-c47d-4e5d-916f-d9222abeffef","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-95.32294%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

then your sharp blade should slice through your dough easily in a single and quick movement.

[{"selector":"#anim-88cb69c0-cd65-4fda-8416-ef65e06eac02","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f910c8d2-da6a-492b-b6f5-f6e1b52ed80c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(115.18987%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c990b98e-271f-4df3-8964-c370a611a407","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2692632c-8364-4c2a-8f59-daa15249a9b4","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(100.00000%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

You should aim for one deep slash with more shallow cuts for a decorative touch.
