We'll show you how to master a few simple knife techniques to slice, dice, and chop like a chef. You'll speed up your kitchen prep work—and keep all your fingers safe in the process! You'll see three basic kitchen knives; these are the tools that every cook should have: the chef's knife for chopping and dicing; the paring knife for peeling, seeding, and trimming fat; and a long knife with a serrated edge for cutting bread and slicing tomatoes. You'll learn the most efficient way to hold a knife and learn how to guide the food safely as you're cutting. You'll learn why a sharp knife not only slices and dices better, but is actually safer to use than a dull knife.
