Kitchen Knife Basics: Maintenance For a Long Life
Owning a set of kitchen knives, irrespective of their type, requires certain use and maintenance to be able to keep them sharp and working correctly. Whether or not you invested in quality kitchen knives or own a set of discount knives, you will want to keep them sharp and handling well.
The first rule of use for your kitchen knife is to be sure that your blade lands on a soft surface, such as wood or plastic, instead of a hard surface such as ceramic or metal. Striking your kitchen cutlery against hard surfaces will easily dull the blade and hinder the performance of your kitchen knife, even if you’re utilizing high quality ceramic or stainless steel cutlery.
It is at times tempting to make use of the kitchen knife to pry something, use it as a screwdriver or chisel and many other actions in which the kitchen cutlery is not designed. Even utilizing the handle of your knife as a hammer is not recommended, unless it’s specifically built for that task. The pins, springs and handle can loosen or break, rendering your kitchen knife useless.
You need to keep your kitchen cutlery away from sand and gritty materials. Be especially aware when you’re making use of your knives outside, for instance if you’re camping, fishing or just barbequing outdoors. Be aware of your kitchen knife and when it gets wet, you should instantly dry it. When you’re washing your kitchen cutlery, do so in mild, soapy water and then dry it completely with a towel, instead of allowing it to drip dry. You need to always wash your kitchen cutlery by hand and dry it immediately after.
Wood tends to swell, so if you have wooden handled knives, it’s best not to immerse them in water for any period of time. You can rub mineral oil on wooden knife handles to aid them keep their luster. You can also add to the lifetime of your wooden handled kitchen knives by rubbing lemon oil or furniture polish into the wood handle occasionally.
Stainless steel cutlery must not rust in the humidity and it could stand up to acids that it’s exposed to in every day use. Nevertheless, stainless steel doesn’t mean 100 % rust proof. The coarser the stainless steel surface is, the more likely it is to corrode. To make sure your stainless steel cutlery is corrosion resistant, you want to purchase knives with finely ground or polished surfaces.
Another option for kitchen cutlery is ceramic knives that are durable and long-lasting. Nevertheless, ceramic knives should likewise not be put in the dishwasher. They are very easy to clean; a wipe and a rinse is all that is needed to keep them in great condition for a long time.
When storing your knives, it’s best to choose a knife block to protect the blades. Never put your knife into the wooden knife block wet – wood absorbs water and you could introduce mold and mildew into your knife block which could effectually ruin your kitchen knives. If you are going to keep them in a drawer, be sure that they’re not tossed around excessively. Jostling against other knives or instruments could cause your knife blades to chip or dull unnecessarily. It is good to keep them in a drawer, but they should be sleeved or in compartments to avoid colliding with other utensils or unintentionally cutting you as you search in the drawer for the knife you need. Forged cutlery or stainless steel cutlery should be properly stored to ensure it lasts a long time.
Taking good care of your kitchen knives is quite easy if you follow the steps layed out above:
– Keep knives out of the dishwasher
– Wash kitchen knives right after use and dry them immediately after washing
– Store them in a wooden knife block, in sleeves or in a compartmentalized drawer
Taking good care of your knives and using them properly will ensure that you’ll have excellent kitchen knives for years to come.
