Class Description:

Do you find yourself asking the question, How doth thou thwart an Onion? Have you, like many others, spent hours chasing onion bits around the cutting board in an endless dance? Trust us, you are not alone and we have the solution.

In our knife skills class you will not only learn how to take down the feared onion (tear free), you will also learn everything that you need to know about knives. In this hands-on class everyone will get a chance to slice, dice, mince & chop. You will learn the most efficient and time saving ways to break down a wide variety of fresh seasonal fruits, vegetables and herbs, including a brief intro to working with poultry and fish.

We'll also explore and explain all of the various types of knives, materials, anatomy, how to keep them sharp, proper care, storage and most importantly knife safety. In addition, we'll cover strategies to keep you organized and clean as you prepare your next meal at home.

By the time you leave, you will have the confidence to tackle anything that comes into your kitchen and the skills to thoroughly impress your friends and family.
