Lesson 5 - Knife Skills Pt. 2


Everyone still got their knife? Good. Now let's learn how to keep all of our fingers while breaking down food. This is arguably the most important thing you'll learn to do in the kitchen, so watch and practice as many times as you need to. You'll be amazed how at it raises your cooking confidence.






RECAP: 

1. Use "the rolling method" to practice on several pieces of celery

2. Grip the celery with thumb and pinkie finger

3. Curl the other three fingers with the tips tucked under

4. Middle finger should always be in contact with the blade as you slice

5. Always pay attention to the finger side of the knife - not the sliced celery side
