Any chef will tell you: there is no substitute for proper knife skills as the foundation for all other cooking skills. Mastering knife skills can transform your cooking experience – you will reduce your cooking time and increase the quality of your meals. We’ve been offering this powerhouse class since we opened in 1996. In this class, you will learn essential cutting techniques like chopping, dicing, batonette, cubes, julienne, chiffonade, and more. You will also explore what knives are right for you, how to properly sharpen them, and how knives should be stored. You will get hands-on experience under the tutelage of classically trained chefs who have taught hundreds of students in a wide variety of cooking styles and techniques. This is a must for everyone serious about cooking. Feel free to bring your own knives to this class or you are welcome to use ours. This class includes some light appetizers.
