Knife Skills Workshop
knives
In this workshop, students will be introduced to all sorts of kitchen knives. Students will learn how to use knives like professional chefs. Learn to cut julienne, brunoise, macédoine, turning of potatoes, food garnishes (tomato roses, radish flowers, apple birds, and more ...), cutting chicken, filleting fish, and fruit preparation and segmenting. We will also teach students how to care and sharpen knives, as well as knife safety.

Students are welcome to bring their own knives to the workshop, however, we provide a set of knives to every student for use during the workshop.

A six-course meal will be cooked and consumed as part of knife skills practicing.
