SKILL BUILDING: KNIFE SAFETY Not a time to cut corners

KNOW THY KNIFE

Point: used for puncturing wrapping for easy removal Tip: used for slicing smaller delicate items, like mushrooms

These parts can be found on various types of knives, but specific shapes and sizes of knives are best suited to particular cutting jobs.

Keep reading to find out how to get the cutting edge you need.

The chefâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knife (aka the French knife) is a versatile tool and can handle most basic cutting jobs in the kitchen, depending what area of the blade you use.

Cutting edge: used for slicing, chopping, dicing, and mincing Spine: used for balance.

Opposite the sharp portion of the cutting edge, often the thickest part of the blade Bolster: heavy portion of the knife, used for gripping and balancing Heel: heaviest portion of the knife, used for chopping through dense material like small bones Tang: metal portion of the handle in forged knives made from one piece of steel, visible as metal band along spine Rivet: attach the tang to the handle of the knife

Handle: entire non-cutting portion of the knife held in your hand

COMMON KNIVES Paring knives are good for trimming small fruits and vegetables. These are perfect for peeling garlic, removing the skin from a kiwi, or trimming a mushroom stem.

Steak knives are usually serrated and about as long as a butter knife.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re used for cutting cooked meats or vegetables from your plate, and generally not in food preparation.

Carving or slicing knives are good for cutting roasted meats, poultry, or fish. Shallow indents on the side of the blade prevent vacuums from forming and sticking slices against the side of your blade.

Serrated knives are used when the inside of your food is softer than the outside. They are perfect for cutting loaves of bread, thick-skinned melons, and pineapples.

GET A GRIP Holding a knife correctly is important because it provides more balance and makes it easier to control. You can achieve more even and consistent cuts by adjusting your hand position.

When cutting, the hand that is holding the food is called the guide hand. Keep that hand curved as if you were holding a tennis ball. This will allow your knuckles to guide the blade and control the thickness and precision of your cuts.

It takes a lot of practice to work safely with knives and even the most experienced chefs get cut. Stay attentive and always make sure you can see all of your fingers.

X X

MAKE THE CUT

Proper handling techniques will help your make more uniform cuts.

Different chopping techniques work better for certain consistencies or shapes of foods, or will perform better during cooking. In general, the smaller a food is chopped, the faster it will cook.

CHOP

½ x ½ x ½ inch pieces or larger Good for potatoes, watermelon, carrot coins, or stew meat pieces. Use to get bigger foods into bite-sized pieces.

DICE

Believe it or not, a sharp knife is safer than a dull one, since you need less pressure to cut through food. Knives are best sharpened by professionals every few months, but you can hone your knives at home using a honing steel, the handled, ridged baton that comes in some knife sets or can be bought separately. A honing steel realigns the blade, while sharpening on a whetstone narrows the blade when it’s been worn down by use.

Approximately ½ x ½ x ½ inch pieces A safe bet when recipes call for diced foods without specifying exact sizes. Good for onions, tomatoes, or celery.

MINCE

No need for precision, just aim to get the smallest even cut possible. Good for garlic, fresh herbs, or anything else that needs to be distributed evenly through a dish.

JULIENNE ⅛ x ⅛ x 2 inches Good for making garnishes. Also a good starting point for small cubed cuts by cutting in the opposite direction once you’ve made the strips.
