Different Knives

Different Knives and their uses...

Chef Knife

A chef’s knife is one of the most versatile tools in a knife block. Any professional chef will tell you this is a must-have. It should feel like an extension of your arm. It’s a go-to for chopping herbs, dicing vegetables, fruit, and herbs. As well as cutting a variety of other ingredients like meat, poultry, and fish.

Bread Knife

Different Knives and their uses...

Bread Knife

Bread knives are long and have serrated edges. They easily carve through soft or crusty bread without sacrificing its integrity. When using it, move it more like you would a saw than a chef’s knife. In addition to slicing bread, they can be used with other baked goods, too, like cake.

Teaspoon

Paring Knife

Different Knives and their uses...

paring Knife

Paring knives are proof that you should never judge a knife by its size. This little piece of cutlery has a very thin blade that’s super sharp. It expertly peels, chops, slices, minces, and removes seeds.
