An effective chef’s knife can be your best friend in the kitchen, with which you will simply do everything, from peeling to finely chopping. The knife is the most important accessory in the kitchen, so check it carefully and purchase a quality knife. You should invest in it more than any other tool.
Although a set of knives in a wooden block or on a magnetic stripe is an impressive thing and sometimes cheaper, some of the knives will probably not be used at all. For example, a separating knife—its purpose is to separate the bones from the meat.
It’s advisable to create a personal knife set that will yield the most benefit. It’s important to remember that one quality knife is better than many simple knives. A carefully selected knife is the right hand of the chef and also of the home cook.
You will be surprised, but it often happens that a recipe in a program on TV, in a cookbook, or on an Internet site seems tempting and easy, and then when you prepare it, the result is unsuccessful, and the reason lies precisely in the knife you used.
