Kitchen professionals use a wide variety of different knives, adapted to the type of food prepared. However, classic chef’s knives or all-purpose knives are particularly popular, which are suitable for a range of different cutting tasks. These can be supplemented by special vegetable knifes, paring knife, meat knife or peeling knives – just to name a few more special knife types.
Which 3 knives do you need in the kitchen?
The basic set of kitchen knives often comprises a versatile knife, such as a chef’s knife or a santoku knife, a bread knife, and a vegetable knife or paring knife. These essentials enable the effective preparation of all key ingredients in the kitchen. It is crucial to have high-quality kitchen knives that are well-made and maintain a solid initial sharpness.
Why are wooden cutting boards recommended?
Cutting boards made of yielding materials – such as wood and plastic – protect the blades of your knives during cutting, ensuring they do not become dull as quickly.
How often do high-quality knives need to be sharpened?
The frequency at which high-quality knives need to be sharpened largely depends on how they are used. If you find that your knives are no longer slicing through food effortlessly, instead leaving pressure marks and cracks, it’s time for a resharpening. Chefs regularly sharpen their kitchen knives and always do so before using them. Sharpening or grinding with a sharpening steel or Tyrolit Life knife sharpeners will restore the blade’s optimal sharpness.
How many knives can fit in the Tyrolit Life knife block?
