Which Kitchen Knives Do You Need?
There are two approaches when it comes to selecting knives for your kitchen. If you want an easy, all-in-one solution that will provide everything you need for a well-equipped kitchen, go with a knife block set that includes a variety of versatile tools, from chef knives to kitchen shears.
If you prefer to pick and choose each knife individually to tailor your cutlery for specific needs, you’ll want to start with some basics.
- A chef’s knife is a kitchen must-have for a wide variety of cutting, slicing and dicing needs—from veggies to meats. The comfortable handle is designed for ease of use, and the broad blade will help you easily transfer your foods from a cutting board to a skillet or bowl.
- A paring knife is an essential addition to your kitchen knife lineup. This smaller knife measures approximately 3" to 4" in length. It is more precise for smaller jobs, such as peeling potatoes.
Beyond these two essentials, some of the most popular knives for home cooks include:
- Santoku knives will help you finely dice, mince or slice ingredients thinly.
- Bread knives slice through loaves of bread cleanly without crushing the fluffy interior, thanks to sharp, serrated edges.
- Boning knives are ideal for breaking down poultry, filleting fish and butterflying meat cuts with their narrow, flexible blades.
- Cleavers feature very wide blades to cut through bones or especially tough items like pumpkins.
