Knifework 101

This knife skills workshop is less “culinary school boot camp” and more “let’s get you to stop fearing butternut squash.” We’ll cover the fundamentals like how to hold a knife without looking like you’re diffusing a bomb, how to actually use your non-dominant hand (claw grip!!), and how to break down the vegetables you’ve been avoiding. Yes, even onions. Especially onions.

We’ll talk about the knives you actually need (probably fewer than you own), how to keep them sharp, and why a sharp knife is safer than the dull one rattling around in your drawer. Expect a lot of hands-on practice and the kind of confidence that makes weeknight cooking feel less like a chore and more like a flex. Class will end with turning your knife work into a meal kit to make dinner at home!
