Messer - Handwerk und Kultur des Küchenmessers

Description

Interacting with knifesmiths, chefs, and collectors, the food journalist Tim Hayward explores the world of knives: their design, production, and significance in the various cuisines and cultures of the world. Hayward presents over forty different knife types in detail - from German stainless steel blades, via the Chinese Chai Dao, to the Japanese Santoku made of Damascus steel. These portraits are complemented with practical tips for knife care as well as holding, cutting, and grinding techniques.
