\"Proper<\/a>It all starts with the purchase, but it does not stop there! The knife will serve you well only if it will receive proper handling and care.<\/p>\n

Cutting<\/strong>
\nThe knife belongs to a cutting board. In a well known grindery, I was advised to use a plastic cutting board instead of a wooden one: “A lot of people are buying expensive knives<\/a> thinking they will be able to cut everything with it. But this is nonsense of course, it’s like when you buy a sports car and you want to use it to move your stuff to another house, ” explains Jamie, who represents a popular Japanese knife mamking company. <\/p>\n

Washing<\/strong>
\nKnife hygiene needs are rather small – immediately after using it, just wash it under running water, dry and store it.<\/p>\n

Storage<\/strong>
\nMuch better than the tray in a drawer is a knife block<\/a> or a magnetic rack. The most important thing is that the blades do not touch each other, which causes them to lose edge.<\/p>\n

What you must not do<\/strong>
\nNo matter what is written on the package, knves are not 100% dishwasher safe. Also, you should not use your knives to poke into potatoes in boiling water – heat is harmful for knives. Do not throw knives into the drawer without thinking; do not use them to cut stuff on plates, baking trays or directly on the kitchen worktop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
