lets talk about what I think is the most important tool in your kitchen:
knives! There are so many available, it is difficult to know what to buy. Over
the years I have bought so many I can hardly believe it myself and yet I know
it's true as I still have most of them! I just can't seem to make myself throw
them away So... What exactly do you NEED?
Well, I think everyone needs a GOOD
paring knife, (you have to decide what size, 4 inch or 6 inch), it needs
to take and keep a good sharp edge and it needs to feel good in your hand.
Personally, I like stainless, but at one time I had an old flint bladed paring
knife that I used until I finally wore the blade out! The next thing to look
for is a well seated blade. The ones that you can see the blade in the handle
and you can see the brads that hold them together are usually best. Check the
edge. If it's not sharp when you buy it, it probably never will be.
A GOOD Chef's knife is just as important and
maybe more so. We do so much slicing and chopping, and it is so much easier
with a good quality knife! The same criteria applies; a sharp edge, a
well seated blade and a well made handle.
Now you can do most jobs in a kitchen with just
these two knives, but I think a GOOD boning knife is almost as important. This
thin bladed, flexible knife will be such a handy tool you will soon wonder how
you ever managed without it.
If you are into baking, you will need a GOOD
serrated bread knife. It will allow you to slice your bread without
crushing it. (After all that work, it is heart breaking to crush your loaf
just to get it sliced!)
I can't encourage you too much to buy the best
quality you can afford when you are buying knives. They make your work in the
kitchen go so much easier and faster. Keep them clean, dry. and sharp and they
will last you a long, long time. Some of mine are over thirty years old!
