Knife Cutting
What is the name of the knife you use to do most of the cutting?
Is there name for it? Ive been using a steak knife for all my cutting.
The first and most important knife you MUST have is what is usually called a "chef's knife," or "cook's knife" (makes sense, doesn't it).
These kitchen knives are basically all purpose. Chop, dice, mince, slice ...all with a chef's knife.
These knives come in different lengths: 6, 8, 10 and 12 inch blade lengths normally. The length of the knife's blade you have or purchase is very important. The longer the blade, the heavier and more difficult it may be to use. I am a small handed cook so I am most comfortable using an 8 inch chef's knife.
A paring knife is a smaller knife with a sharp blade about three to four inches long. The blade is thin and narrow. It works great for peeling and coring.
A serrated knife has a sharp, saw-like edge which is semi-narrow and thin. The blades of a serrated knife vary from 5 to 10 inches long.
The one you should have should be at least 8 inches long so you can cut bread and carve with it. The shorter versions are mostly for cutting fruits and vegetables.
Those are the "BIG THREE" of kitchen knives. I will mention one other that I personally use alot. This kitchen knife is usually called a "santoku knife."
It is similar to a chef's knife with a wide blade that has a long straight edge curving up slightly at the end. But the santoku knife has a wider, thinner and shorter blade so I can cut smoothly and precisely through vegetables that may "resist" a thicker blade. I also use this kitchen knife for chopping, dicing, and slicing foods into narrow or fine pieces when I am sauteing.
