batoned
Hit with stick
Batoned describes something that has been cut into baton shapes—thick, rectangular sticks typically about the size of a finger.
The term appears almost exclusively in cooking: batoned carrots, batoned potatoes.
It's the past participle of the verb baton, meaning to cut vegetables or other ingredients into uniform stick shapes for even cooking or elegant presentation.
