Forget the “bear claw,” in this Basic Knife Skills, you’ll learn the more effective Spider Walk, how to thoroughly sharpen your knives, and where to find your cutting board’s Sweet Spot. Of course, we’ll teach you a host of knife cuts, including how to elegantly undo a chicken joint (vegetarian option available). What’s more: you’ll bring home newly sharpened knives and the fixings for a light meal using the ingredients you cut in class–we don’t spend instruction time having you sit and eat.
Unlike other knife skills classes, this one prioritizes balance, posture, cadence, and flow. We take time to make sure your knives are sharp and teach you strong, clean technique to develop speed. Basic Knife Skills is unique for its effective, thorough, personalized instruction. We guide your practice, literally hand over hand. All classes are taught by chef/owner Ronna Welsh.
