There is something to say for the collection of kitchen utensils. My mother can not throw away every gadget! Needless to say, the drawers are so full of tools that you can not even open. Then, when you wiggle the drawer open, you have half of the tray is empty, also see what's inside …. and there is no way to see them all, back in shape after you're done! Can you relate? But I digress. The most important tool in the kitchen with a knife.

After 27 years of chopping, cuttingOrdered cube and around the globe, and has two dozen knife … I have a suggestion for you in terms of the most important tool in the kitchen drawer. My mother has a knife drawer, you are at your own risk, because knife was found in both directions and some of the leaves are up! On the other side of the kitchen it is filled with a knife, a knife block set, probably bought for a whole day away from the mother. Enough Bustin 'on my mother's kitchen! The purpose of this article is toTell you that doing it only three really good knife for most kitchen work. And "really great" in this case, does not really expensive!

I would like to discuss the "anatomy" of a knife, so you can make comparisons, or vote for your own collection. Let's start with the most important part of the knife … the blade. The most common types of metal kitchen knife used today in carbon steel, stainless steel and stainless steel with high carbon content. Carbon steel is a composite of metal, whichcost generally has a good edge and is easy to sharpen. The disadvantage is that they react chemically and rust, acidic foods, and onions, which they can high maintenance funds. Stainless steel blades are harder to raise, and tend to not hold the edge, as long as carbon steel, but they will not stain or corrode. Among the best features of both materials and combine them to lead the high carbon stainless steel knife. It is not rust or corrode and can be easilyhoned to a razor's edge. So if you shop for your first or next set of knives, remember that the quality of the blade is of particular importance.

The second difference in sound mind is whether they are forged or stamped. The blades are forged by the heating of metals, molding and beating them in the form of a knife, then it is to be ground and sharpened. The stamp sheets are cut or machined from sheet metal and soil in the form of a knife, and thenheated. So what's the difference? Forged blades are much better balanced, hold an edge longer but cost more. Stamped blades are easily and inexpensively, but need more frequent sharpening. The difference extends to the handle.

Forged blades are a "tang" which extends until the end of the handle and secured usually three rivets. It also has a "bloster", a thick finger protection, where the blade meets the handle. These two features will help keep the balanceKnives and contributes to the total weight of the knife. With repeated sharpening, the blade is worn, but the reinforcement is not affected, ie half of the blade no more contact with the cut surface. Stamped blades usually do not run the length of the handle and the mounting number of times solves problems caused. They also have not strengthened, so they are easier and less balanced. Without the boost to the whole blade can be sharpened.

With regard to theHandles, size does matter! If you have dainty hands or large bear claws, selecting the correct grip is a matter of personal taste. I suggest you get the knife before you buy online. It is not the form that fits your hand comfortably. Resistance to water and sanitation are two other considerations. Time for a quick rant, as you wash your knife! Although most of the knives are dishwasher safe are made, I recommend you hand wash them for three reasons. First, the agitation of theDishwasher makes the blade to possible damage. Second, the high temperature and humidity inside the dishwasher may eventually lead to separate the handle from the blade, and the third reason is the security are related. Dishwasher features vary between machines, but often there is no place for this purpose given. Also the knife NSF (National Science Foundation) Note certified, which means that it is safe to use and adopt sanitation standards.

The most important is your knifeChef's knife (or chef's knife, knife or French). This knife is handled properly, can cut to 9 out of 10 job losses from fine herbs, to drive the juicy onion, the tears in my eyes, are used to kill bone for homemade stock. The second is an all-purpose vegetable knife. This smaller knife has a much shorter blade 4 inches or less. There are many jobs in the kitchen, the more detail and control how the knife to peel fruit and vegetables, citrus fruits and segmentationdeveining shrimp. The blade is also more flexible than the knife of a chef. The third is a serrated or bread knife. This is the highly specialized knives of the group. Because of his saw-blade, they seem to always be sharp. The curved, cut multiple surfaces, which are equally effective for cutting through the Strait of crusty bread and the soft interior. Tomatoes and eggplant skins can also be a special challenge to conventional blades, if yourKnife is a bit boring.

There are many other specialty knives that you can buy, but most of them are specifically for the processing of meat. A boning knife, for example, has a long, thin, flexible blade that is useful for cutting through joints, trim silver skin and separating meat from the bones. Slicing or carving knife to make it easy to carve thin slices of large roast. Cleavers are generally used for the processing of bones for the production of shares.

Well, a professional cook, I tendedto buy large, expensive, imported blades by Wustof, Henckels and Tojiro. No one was allowed my knives, because most cost more than $ 100 each and I have to use some of them for more than twenty years in the property. Over the years, I have many brands and styles of knives, and I am still what I have learned to you.

There are four basic factors to consider. First, how much money are you willing to spend on kitchen paper tools. Secondly, how much use the knife to receive and at whatTypes of food? Third, you will sharpen your knives regularly, and what will you use to do that? Finally, how does feel the knife in his hand? Obviously, these issues suggest that the purchase is the most important tool in the kitchen, to your choice! If on the other hand, you think that is a cop out …

My recommendation to you is to buy a trio of Forschner Fibrox knives, a chef, a paring knife and a bread knife. All three knives can be purchased for a total of less than $ 70thThey are highly rated by Cook's Illustrated magazine and they will be commonly used in many kitchens. The handles are slip-resistant even when wet. The wings are cut out of stainless steel with high carbon content. They are certified by the National Science Foundation, and they come with a lifetime guarantee. It would be a good choice if you are at the beginning, or do not want to spend a small fortune. I love my "high end" knife, but that is what I'm used to coming. Buy the bestKnives are ready make sure that the right sense is, then learn how to clean, sharpen, and elsewhere, care for it, because if my mother's kitchen drawer is any indication … You could own knives for the rest of your life!
