But this Sunday I am attempting to put a feast together for Father's day. I appreciate you showing how to cut different sizes of potatoes. And putting them in water! Would have never thought to do. I appreciate the quality of the video, the angles and even the soothing yet not sleep inducing music. All of you did a fantastic job. Thank you.

    Simple easy to understand video..and the only special tool needed is a knife made for cutting crinkle shapes and you can get those for under 10 US dollars. Also a good tip on the water, not a lot of people who cut small batches of potatoes know that little fact and wonder why when they do larger batches for the first time why the potatoes start to change colors while sitting out.

  • @scottharris5021
    @scottharris5021 7 лет назад +10

    Thank you for your pleasant video and instructions. Just by the way of information though, potatoes do not turn brown & gray due to the iron oxidizing; they change color due to the oxidation of the enzyme polyphenol oxidase. This can be reduced by soaking them in water, as you demonstrate. This color change can also be REVERSED by putting the potatoes in water with a bit of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) or lemon juice.

      No problems with cutting tomatoes. You just need a *very* sharp knife. Do not apply pressure while cutting, just let the knife do all the work. I use a thin long knife for that. For potatoes, onions and most other vegetables as well.
