*I hope this video is helpful guys!! Practice with me if you would like to improve! I tried to make this as easy as possible and more videos will be on the way with time! :)*
Ha ha I started the video and paused it to get my knife and practiced slicing techniques! I am going to need this skill when I do my French Onion Soup. Going to slice LOTS of onions ha ha. This is really helpful, Chef James! In the meantime, I am going to apply what I learned here in my everyday cooking at home! Thank you so much!
im very happy to hear that! later on i will make some more videos and try to maybe do a live one as then people can ask questions! :) yeah, onion soup does that a lot of onions! haha have a great week my friend! :)
Big like 1...omg u are so expert... U explained so nicely ....nice watching dear....great share👍👍❤️❤️ I enjoyed watching soo much....will try it dear👍👍😊
This video reminds me of Julia Child, she had to practice cutting so many onions when she started culinary school, basic cutting skills 101. This video is so helpful and informative. I'm too lazy sharpening my knives before using but this will help too.
I am a home maker, and video is very useful to me very well explained to cut onions especially about shallots Enjoyed watching this video first I should buy a knife like this
WOW, I wish I had seen this video sooner. I learned the culinary school method from another video but I had my onion the wrong way around the whole time & was using the back part of the knife (I'm a simple home cook not a chef), this lesson is really helpful. I've watched famous chefs like MPW and GR doing this but honestly Chef James explains it better in a way that is easy to understand for home cooks - the steam engine motion I can relate to and try and use my knife with that movement 😃
Maybe some quick tip for cutting onions is to put them in the fridge before cutting and using sharp knives (obviously) to reduce the tears. Or at least I notice a difference between cutting warm onions and colder ones from the fridge.
Definitely helpful James! I'm still not good in my knife skills and good to see the various ways to slice shallots and onions. I'll keep that in mind and don't judge me in the next few vlogs 😝
This is a great lesson on how to cut the onion not only for the beginners but also for those who have cooked for their family for several decades. Thanks for the detail presentation, friend. Liked 7th~^^
I really enjoyed watching this amazing onion cutting video because I have never seen before authentic recipe it thanks for sharing this amazing recipe mashallah and keep posting
For brunoise and fine mince, I find it's easier and safer to make the horizontal cut(s) first. When slicing for onion rings, make 4 - 5 scores in the top layer instead of just one and peel off each section from tip to root. You can see James struggling when he makes just one cut. No need for a paring knife. The base of a chef's knife does the trick. James, you are the best culinary teacher I've come across online.
oooooo, I really like this piston cutting technique, my issue when cutting oinions have always been my fingers slipping so i do very poor chops to avoid cutting my fingers.
Thank you so much Chef for this helpful video. I really love onion in the food but slicing it right was really tricky, dangerous using sharp chef knife & I'm not chef by any means. This video has helped me so much and given me confidence to do much more in the kitchen.
Awesome knife skills my friend I can definitely tell that you were professionally trained. Love all the different cuts of an onion you definitely make it look very easy. I’m glad you threw shallots in there also
thank you Jeff! my dad first taught me how to use a knife when i was little! :) i will make some more videos like this later on! I hope all is going well where you are! you would be surprised at how many comments I've received for this video as a (Delicious recipe!!) 😂 have a great weekend!
Very good information. I love how you explain how it is important for you to get a knife that feels comfortable to you. I am like you, I use onions for everything too. Amazing share my friend. I enjoyed this.
Very professional! I love how you explain these skill sets. I had a lot to learn from you chef James! Thanks for sharing this. Love that kitchen knife😃.
Nice Knife skillz! The "claw" technique I never really do because it's just not comfortable for me, though I have tried LOL.... Great tutorial on how to handle a knife. Most important thing to know in my opinion. Nice job bro!!
thank you man! as long as it works for you its okay! yes i agree! you know what funny, i have received like 6 comments on how delicious this recipe is!! hahaha 🤣😂 take care man!
haha, yes i can imagine how the kitchen smells after all that. You've a great channel and I always look forward to seeing your posts pop up. I learned a few new techniques, and want to try out your knife handling skills
