The knife skills lesson is all about how to use your knife properly – to me this is one of the most important things for a home cook. We don’t need to buy the fanciest knife just a good chef’s knife that we are comfortable holding. They demonstrated many skills in the lesson including:
- how to hold your knife
- how to keep your cutting board from moving while chopping
- how to dice an onionÂ
- how to mince garlic.Â
Overall it was a great lesson for beginners and even helpful for more experienced cooks to remember the proper ways to cut. The better our knife skills are the less time we take to make our dishes.Â
