    I think step 1 should be "Get a sharp knife"
    Whenever I get a dull knife, the rocking motion didn't work.

      yes! always make sure to sharpen your knife! a blunt knife is far more dangerous because while cutting e.g veggies, your blunt knife could slip off the veggie and injure you.

    Great video. Three additional tips here:
    1. Since wrists are at a 90 degree to our body, move the board so the corner that is closest to your knife hand is farther. It will make movement more natural and prevent wrist pain.
    2. Use the heel of the knife (part closer to the hand) to cut harder food such as carrots.
    3. Use your arm for movement, not your hand. Keep the wrists straight with your arm. It will give you more force, more control and protect your wrist again.

    • @2adamast
      @2adamast 7 лет назад +11

    Good video for novices. Keeping fingers outta the way is key! Technique is learned and should be practised every time you pick up a knife. Using the proper knife is also key to doing a great job in prepping your food. Pre chopping all the food before cooking is the best way to organize your cooking process, this is vital to having a perfect meal cooked evenly.

    When roll-cutting, the point of the knife never comes off the board. If it does, that creates a hazard, as you could well cut into your claw grip. Keep that tip on the board. And keep that blade below your first knuckle. :)

    Do not know if it is correct to do so, but I use the side of the board with the outer moat to cut meat to allow any juice to flow into, and the flat side for veggies so I can easily invert the knife and use the back to sweep away the waste or product.

      1st. The knife would be sharp obviously
      2nd. Get the knife you are comfortable with, try holding it then if it's easy to use then buy that one
      3rd. You only need 3 knives, A heavy duty one for chopping ( the normal knife like the one on the vid ) A paring knife (a small one) for prepping vegetables and a serrated edge knife for chopping and slicing.

    • @SC-hj3hr
      @SC-hj3hr 5 лет назад +11

      Umm, wrong! You don't shop with a cerrated knife, you slice cut. By virtue of the cerrated edge design, that edge can't chop completely through a surface. Hence the back and forth motion with the cerrated edge to completely slice through to the bottom, say on a loaf of bread to get a slice.

    Thank you. I loved and needed this video. I’ve always wondered how I could get really great with slicing…chopping…etc without cutting my fingers. I already make my family nervous as it is but I’ll be practicing this. Now if you’d do more videos like these…maybe knife sharpening 101. Clearly we need a very sharp knife for this to work. Even though you would think people already know this😂.

    One finger at the front, two behind it, thumb at behind of the veggies/meat/fruits/anything. Use your thumb as an anchor and slide your three fingers towards your thumb as you cut. Always keep the knife below the knuckle level

    Let me add a suggestion when cutting onions, garlic, or other "smelly" veggies. Wet your cutting board, hands, and onions, this creates a barrier so the smells won't make your cutting board or hands smell for days afterward.
    Learned from a career in working wood...if you cut with the blade toward you, you may be ok today but someday you will cut yourself.
    Good useful basics that should be

    • @satorougojo4257
      @satorougojo4257 5 лет назад +1

    One thing to note is to also buy a honing rod for your knife. I had my new knife for a year now and wasn't aware of the honing rod. I nearly cut myself because my knife slid down the onion while I was cutting it and the cuts I made to the onion were either too big or squished too much of the onion's juice. A honing rod will make the knife cut more accurately and more easily.
