The single biggest upgrade you can make to your cooking is learning to use a knife properly. In this hands-on class you'll learn the correct grip, posture, and technique for all the essential cuts — dice, julienne, chiffonade, and more. We'll work through onions, carrots, herbs, and proteins. By the end you'll be faster, safer, and far less frustrated in the kitchen.

  • Proper knife grip and the claw technique for safe cutting
  • How to dice, mince, julienne, and chiffonade
  • Breaking down chicken and filleting fish
  • How to sharpen and hone a knife at home
  • Which knives you actually need (and which are a waste of money)
