Instruction

1. Prepare a knife. The blunt knife in kitchen not only is useless, but also is dangerous, they can put themselves a serious trauma as it doesn't cut, and slides and becomes uncontrollable. If in order that to cut something, you need to apply effort bigger, than minimum – your knife is ground badly.

2. Choose a knife of suitable weight and size. For cuttings products usually take an edge long in 20-25 centimeters. Pay attention to the handle, it shouldn't slide in a hand, to be rough, with gaps or hangnails. It has to be convenient to you and it isn't heavy to hold a knife.

3. Prepare a cutting board. If it at you glass or from stainless steel, enclose a baking plate it a towel that the board didn't slide at the movement.

4. Undertake a knife handle that hand which at you dominating. Big and a forefinger there is about one party of an edge, and all others – on another. You watch that your wrist moved freely. Pay attention – you will never see the professional cook who is convulsively squeezing a knife, their hands are always plastic and the edge goes without efforts.
