The Well-Stocked Kitchen Begins With Cutting-Edge Knives
Preparing meals that are a cut above the ordinary may be easier if you start with the right cutting tools.
Well-designed cutting tools are engineered with style, safety and performance in mind. A smartly made knife is fashioned of forged high-carbon stainless steel and chromium for optimum rust and stain resistance.
For example, Insignia2 cutlery has fully tapered blade edges that are designed with Chicago Cutlery's signature Taper Grind Edge for extreme sharpness, performance, edge retention and resharpening ease.
When selecting a knife, try to find heavy forged bolsters between the blade and the handle. These bolsters provide greater balance and safety by preventing fingers from riding up on the blade. A full tang blade, extending from the tip of the knife to the end of the handle, offers additional strength, balance and control.
A good knife collection features patented ergonomic polymer handles for outstanding durability and handling. Triple compression stainless steel rivets ought to secure the handles to the blades.
Available in 18-piece and 12-piece slanted hardwood block sets, the Insignia2 collection consists of a four-piece forged steak knife set, a three-piece set with paring, utility and chef knives, and a two-piece Asian set featuring a seven-inch Granton-edge Santoku and a 3.5-inch paring knife.
A new concept in cutlery is the collection's Partoku, a five-inch knife which delivers the versatility of a Granton-edge Santoku with the convenience of an easy-handling paring knife. It is designed for chopping, dicing, slicing and mincing and works very well as a cleaver, slicer and chef's knife. The five-inch version can attain kitchen tasks which would be unwieldy with a larger knife.
After stocking your kitchen with the best, most ergonomic knives, you might wish to use them to reward yourself by preparing these scrumptious recipes:
Braised Chicken
in Wine Sauce
Serves 4
5 slices bacon, diced
1 cup onion, roughly chopped
one 31/2-lb. chicken, cut into eighths
1/4 lb. mushrooms, diced
8 small new potatoes, cut in big pieces
one clove garlic, minced
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1 cup chicken broth
three cups Burgundy wine
Chopped parsley
With a Chicago Cutlery Insignia Partoku, dice uncooked bacon and mushrooms; roughly chop onions and cut potatoes and chicken into pieces. In a big skillet, sauté diced bacon with half the onions until bacon is crisp. Remove and drain very well. Add chicken pieces to skillet and brown on all sides. Take out chicken and set aside.
Put remaining onions, mushrooms, potatoes and minced garlic in skillet. Add browned chicken pieces, bacon and onion mixture. Add salt and pepper, thyme and enough chicken broth and wine to almost cover chicken. Cover and simmer on low heat for 45 minutes or until chicken is tender and juices run clear when pricked. Serve sprinkled with chopped parsley.
Easy Scalloped Eggplant
Serves 4
one medium eggplant, peeled and cubed (around three cups)
one Tbsp. parsley, finely chopped
twelve ounces grated cheddar cheese; reserve a few tablespoons for topping
two eggs
1 medium onion, chopped
one cup cracker crumbs
Salt and pepper to taste
Butter
Peel and cube eggplant. In a medium saucepan, boil eggplant till tender, around ten minutes. Drain well. In a lightly buttered baking dish, combine eggplant, parsley, cheese (reserve some for topping), eggs, onion and cracker crumbs. Sprinkle with remaining cheese, salt and pepper and dot with butter. Bake at 350º F for 25 minutes or till firm. Serve immediately.
