Basic Knife Skills – February 4th

This is an essential class for beginners as well as those who may want to refresh their skills.  A fundamental skill needed to cook and prepare food is proper knife work. This class is designed to teach you to handle a knife correctly, practice precise and controlled cuts, and become a more confident and efficient cook.  During each class we’ll prepare a short recipe using the ingredients you’ve practiced cutting and you’ll create a simple meal to enjoy at the end of class. Here are a few topics you’ll explore in class:

• How to choose the right knife for you & the job you’re doing
• How to keep a sharp edge on your chef knife
• How to properly grip a chef knife
• Fundamentals of knife work – slice, dice, mince, and more with a chef knife
• Cook a simple meal from the ingredients used in your knife skills session
