    This knife was bought out of jar on the counter of the Robertson's Meats main store in OK. I got it as a whim needing to cut a summer sausage in the car.

How to Peel a Potatoe with a paring-knife! The method great-granny used.?

Using a paring-knife, cutting towards the body. (I know you are supposed to 'cut' away from the body, for safety sake, but the method back then was to peel towards the body). Please tell me how it is done & done efficiently.


Holding the knife in the hand--gripping with the last three fingers--peel toward the thumb and control with the first finger. (Yes, may be the wrong way but it is how granny did it and also how I do it)

Ice Box Praline Peach Pie - an alternative to baking

It still seems too hot to bake a peach pie, so you might enjoy this version instead. It will be a welcome addition to your next picnic.

Peaches are at their best right now. Look for seconds at your local farmers’ market. They aren’t as pretty, but are riper, softer and taste peachier. 

1 ready-made shortbread or graham cracker crust

8 ounces cream cheese (low-fat is fine)

1/3 cup white sugar

1 cup whipping cream

¼ teaspoon almond extract

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

3 tablespoons light brown sugar

½ tsp cardamom

1 tablespoons cornstarch

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

1 ½ pounds slightly over ripe peaches (about 5-6)

¼ cup sliced almonds (optional)

With an electric mixer, beat cream cheese, sugar, and almond extract until fluffy.

In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup very cold whipping cream until soft peaks appear. Fold 1/3 cup of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.  Spread cream cheese mixture into crust, smooth the top, cover, and place in freezer.

Net Help | Shun DM0716 Classic 4-Inch Paring Knife

I bought this knife to complement the remainder of my pick that I get been purchasing one knife at a time. I had sought Wustoff, Henckels, and Global before settling with Shun knives. I am a culinary educatee at the art institute and was turned on to Shun knives by my chef instructor who gave me a principal on certified Shun Dealer. I descended in love with these knives the first time I sought them. I knew I wanted the 2-1/2 inch bird’s beak knife, which is why I determined on the 4″ paring knife alternatively of the 3-1/2″. If you are not pursuing the bird’s beak knife then the 3-1/2 inch paring knife is great. Also, if you ain any Shun knives, build certainly you make the Shun Honing Steel with the built in angle. Shun knives retain their sharpness longer than other knifes in this category because they are fabricated with a smaller weight to build the blade than their competition. Virtually knives shape a 45 level weight to build the blade with two sides at 22.5 degrees each. However, Shun forms their blades with 16 level angles on both sides to shape a 32 level blade. You should exercise the steel at least erst a week and Shun offers “lifetime” warranty with free “factory-edge” sharpening any time you want. Depending on use, you should send the knives into Shun erst a yr for sharpening....

Ham Slicer, Fork Knife and Paring Knife | Chachi Says

The oriental cleaver is another inclusion in the chef knife sets . This knife is perfect for vegetables and greens alone. The chefs who use it for that particular purpose solely can attest to this. Any type of vegetable can be applicable when it comes to the cleaver and it is never disappointing at all. Another type of food that can be used with this cleaver knife is the type of meat that is completely soft. As long as the food be chopped up is not hard. And the one thing that the cleaver knife should not even touch is the bones of meat. Now that will definitely ruin the knife for it is not meant for that purpose.
