Basic Knife Skills – January 6th

Event Description + Information to optional knife sharpening class (5pm) prior to the event

Knife skills lay the foundation for cooking. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned cook, this is a great class for everyone! Establishing great knife skills gives you an edge in the kitchen and provides ease when cooking.

Class begins with information about care, upkeep of the blade, handling and selecting the best chef knife for you. Throughout this class, chef Gloria will teach the proper use of the chef knife and you will learn to slice, dice, mince, chiffonade, segment and julienne.

You can take all of your prepped ingredients home! While we will not prepare a full meal in this class, but we will use some of the cut vegetables to make a potato hash with a fresh farm egg.

We are excited to debut our Chubo knives, hand forged in Japan. You will utilize these beautiful knives throughout class. And, if you are in the market, they are available for retail.

New this year: Want to learn to sharpen your knives? We have a new add-on. You can register to join us at 5:00 pm for a 45 minute knife sharpening class utilizing a whetstone. This will be held before our formal knife skills class. Feel free to bring a knife from home for this, but if not, one will be provided. Please note, signing up for knife sharpening must be accompanied by a knife skills class event ticket.

The next Basic Knife Skills Class is on Tuesday March 3rd.
