How to Use a Santoku Knife

Hi, Chef Jason Hill and this is a Santoku knife and its one of my favorite knifes to use in the home kitchen.
The Santoku knife is a Japanese designed chef’s knife, the word Santoku means three uses referring to its great design to slice, dice and mince. Another I like about this design are these little scallops along the knife blade which create tiny little air pockets which keeps your food from sticking to the knife as you’re cutting through the product. If you’re in the market for a new kitchen knife or cutler set, I would recommend going to a cutlery store where you can pick up the product and try it out and makes your feels good in the hand before you make the purchase. When purchasing your Santoku knife, don’t settle for something really cheap and don’t go out and spend top dollar either, a mid-range priced knife will work fine in your kitchen.
