    Good video for novices. Keeping fingers outta the way is key! Technique is learned and should be practised every time you pick up a knife. Using the proper knife is also key to doing a great job in prepping your food. Pre chopping all the food before cooking is the best way to organize your cooking process, this is vital to having a perfect meal cooked evenly.

I already make my family nervous as it is but I’ll be practicing this. Now if you’d do more videos like these…maybe knife sharpening 101. Clearly we need a very sharp knife for this to work.

    I really enjoyed this. I learned a few things that I can apply.
    Do not know if it is correct to do so, but I use the side of the board with the outer moat to cut meat to allow any juice to flow into, and the flat side for veggies so I can easily invert the knife and use the back to sweep away the waste or product.

  • @TomK1001
    @TomK1001 6 ปีที่แล้ว +394

    Great video. Three additional tips here:
    1. Since wrists are at a 90 degree to our body, move the board so the corner that is closest to your knife hand is farther. It will make movement more natural and prevent wrist pain.
    2. Use the heel of the knife (part closer to the hand) to cut harder food such as carrots.
    3. Use your arm for movement, not your hand. Keep the wrists straight with your arm. It will give you more force, more control and protect your wrist again.

    • @2adamast

      Honing rods don't sharpen blades , they only hone them , honing means you clean up a sharp knives edge and will make the edge last longer . Don't think honing a dull knife will do much

    When roll-cutting, the point of the knife never comes off the board. If it does, that creates a hazard, as you could well cut into your claw grip. Keep that tip on the board. And keep that blade below your first knuckle. :)

      I learned this from Gordon correct me in I'm wrong
      1st. The knife would be sharp obviously
      2nd. Get the knife you are comfortable with, try holding it then if it's easy to use then buy that one
      3rd. You only need 3 knives, A heavy duty one for chopping ( the normal knife like the one on the vid ) A paring knife (a small one) for prepping vegetables and a serrated edge knife for chopping and slicing.

    • @SC-hj3hr
      @SC-hj3hr 5 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Umm, wrong! You don't shop with a cerrated knife, you slice cut. By virtue of the cerrated edge design, that edge can't chop completely through a surface. Hence the back and forth motion with the cerrated edge to completely slice through to the bottom, say on a loaf of bread to get a slice.
