DVD Reviews of Mastering Knife Skills: Cutting-Edge Tips, Tricks & Techniques Used by Professional Chefs
DVD Review: Very entertaining, but quite basic.
Summary: 4 Stars
This DVD is definitely for beginners. I was hoping to learn some professional knife skills like turning vegetables, how to filet a fish, how to fabricate chickens, etc. This DVD didn't contain any of that. It's more for home cooks who don't know how to use a knife at all. It's definitely NOT "cutting edge" (although that's a clever pun for a knife instruction DVD), and these are not "tips, tricks & techniques used by professional chefs". The only real thing I learned was how to cut up bell peppers in a new way that was more efficient than other ways I'd learned.
That said, I did enjoy the video. My whole family watched it and we all found it very entertaining. The kids learned a lot, because they've never used knives before, and we all found the guys very funny. We ended up laughing a lot.
If you're a beginner, this is probably an excellent video for you. If you're looking for "cutting edge tips, tricks & techniques used by professional chefs" like I was based on the DVD's subtitle, look elsewhere.
