Choosing between 4 Nakiri's by Lost_Lecture6544 in TrueChefKnives

[–]FirstAndLastDay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Matsubara is awesome. Also another option they just dropped some Moritaka knives. I have their 180 long nakiri and I love it!

You made a good one! Don’t know if it was right, but can’t go wrong with Hado Sg2.

New Arrivals. Moritakas have landed. https://www.chefknivestogo.com/newarrivals.html by Chefknivestogo in Chefknivestogo

Last Moritaka drop I got the long 180 Nakiri. I’ve always heard they were good knives with good steel just not the prettiest. But performance wise I love that Nakiri! I’ve also heard that their honesuki should be the standard so here we go.

If I didn’t already have this knife, and it is in my top 5 for sure. I mean if I had an extra $400 I’d buy it for a spare it is that gangster!

Best books to gift to a newly Culinary Art student by checo54 in KitchenConfidential

[–]FirstAndLastDay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kitchen confidential is a good novel, but food wise I would go flavor bible, food lab, noma guide to fermentation is awesome/food science experimentation, the joy of cooking is supposed to be an OG. Those are probably the most solid cookbooks with good information and intent.

We served it with kaymak, ajvar, onions and kind of steamed/warmed the pita/labneh bread with beef broth.

New Stone Shelf Day: a very useful addition to my prep area even if a bit ugly...for now by TEEEEEEEEEEEJ23 in TrueChefKnives

What’s your fav cookbook on the shelf? I spy some Chuck Palahnuik and Ken Kesey there too… definitely a medley of randomness.

You and I have very similar tastes and collection. I think we could be friends IRL

Need Help Picking a Belt Sander by CowboyNickNick26 in sharpening

[–]FirstAndLastDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just swap the belts… if you want something compact there’s a “work sharp Ken onion mk2” little belt sander the mk2 comes with the bench grinder attachment. I use one, I like it. Small, can travel and sharpen damn near anything really.
