Description:
Knowing how to use knives skillfully is critical for cooks; yet many people have never mastered proper technique. Similarly, good knives form the foundation of a well-equipped kitchen, yet even some accomplished home cooks dont know how to select and care for them. In Knife Skills 1, youll use Wüsthof-Trident knives to slice, dice, and chop in the safest and most efficient manner. Youll also learn the proper way to sharpen your knives. Note that Knife Skill courses may be taken in any order. Chef-Instructor Norman Weinstein has been teaching everyone from first-time cooks to professional chefs how to better select and use knives for more than 20 years. He is the author of Mastering Knife Skills (Stewart, Tabori & Chang, 2008). Hes been profiled in Wine Spectator and the New York Times Magazine, and has appeared on the Food Network. He was the 2003 honoree of the New York Association of Culinary Professionals.
