Kitchen Essentials: Knives Out
I got this product for free/at a discount in exchange for a review, but all opinions are my own.
Did you know the first knifes used in the Stone Age were made of either flint or flint or rock, their edge was chipped or ground, and they sometimes, but not all the time, had a handle? Although time has changed the materials that are used, a knife’s basic design still remains very much the same.
Kitchen knives are the most commonly used type of knife today. It seems that everyone who has a kitchen has at least one, although many of us have several that are used for many different purposes. I’ve decided to upgrade mine for this set from Dragonfly, their All-In-One Professional Chef Knives Set here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XYZKXJF
One of the most commonly known of the kitchen knifes is the French knife, also known as a chef’s knife. It has a broad, tapered shape with a fine edge that is great for things such as chopping vegetables. A slicing knife, with its long and narrow blade, is used to cut through things such as cooked meat. Those kitchen knifes that feature scalloped edges are perfect for slicing those foods that are softer, such as tomatoes, bread, and cakes. One of the most used of the kitchen knifes is the smaller paring knife. A paring knife has a short, pointed blade that is very easy to handle. It is mostly used for quicker jobs such as peeling and removing cores. Other kitchen knifes are used for table service. These are usually named after the service they provide such as a dinner knife, luncheon knife, fish knife, butter knife, and the popular steak knifes.
