Introduction: What should I do if the sharpener does not have a sharpener? The chef teaches you two simple methods of sharpening the knife. The blunt knife becomes sharp in an instant.
Knife is a must-have tool in the home kitchen. It includes bone chopping knives, paring knives, fruit knives, slice knives, etc. The most commonly used in the kitchen is slice knives. Cutting vegetables, meat, fruit, etc. requires a knife to cut. However, after using it for a period of time, the knife will become dull, it is very laborious to cut things, and the cut is not flat. The kitchen knife should be polished like this, it is very simple, let’s take a look together.
1, First, put the kitchen knife that needs to be polished in a basin, and then pour into more white vinegar, then dip the white vinegar in white vinegar and apply it a few more times so that the vinegar can fully adhere to the edge of the kitchen knife. White vinegar is brewed with grain, and is acidic, which can soften the blade and effectively clean the rust.
Apply all the kitchen knife on white vinegar, take it out first and put it aside, soak the white vinegar with a kitchen tissue, wrap the kitchen knife with a tissue, and let it sit for ten minutes. After ten minutes, remove the tissue and grind the kitchen knife.
2. Not every household has whetstones, but every household has porcelain bowls. You just need to turn the porcelain bowl upside down. It is best to choose a slightly raised bottom and a little rough on the surface. This is a stainless steel kitchen knife. When polishing, push the friction from the head of the knife to the end of the knife. Never polish it back and forth. Staining it back and forth can easily damage the blade. If it is an iron knife, you can polish it back and forth, because the materials of iron and stainless steel are different. Before grinding, distinguish what material the kitchen knife is. During the grinding process, you must push it in the same direction. The angle between the kitchen knife and the bottom of the bowl is about ten to 15 degrees. The smaller the angle of the grinding, the sharper the kitchen knife will be. Grind one side of the kitchen knife for two minutes, change to the other side and use the same method to continue to grind for two minutes. Never polish it back and forth, so that the kitchen knife can be polished very sharply.
3. Every family has porcelain bowls, so don’t buy whetstones anymore. Use a bowl to grind the kitchen knife, the angle and strength are very easy to master. After grinding, wipe the kitchen knife first and use the grinded kitchen knife to test the effect. The tomato is particularly flat and can cut the tomato very thin. If the blade is not sharp enough, the tomato cannot be cut. If the thinner you want, cut the thinner it will be, and it will not be difficult at all. In addition to white vinegar, toothpaste is also good, because toothpaste contains abrasive . When applied to the kitchen knife, it can increase the grinding effect and can play a very good role in cleaning the kitchen knife. Squeeze the toothpaste to the edge of the kitchen knife, apply the toothpaste evenly on the edge, apply toothpaste on the other side, let it sit for five minutes, then use the same angle to grind the kitchen knife, grind it on one side for two minutes, and continue to polish the other side, and then clean the toothpaste on the kitchen knife.
4. Whether it is applying white vinegar or toothpaste, it can serve as a cleaning auxiliary sharpening knife. The kitchen knife polished in this way is very bright. There is basically no difference between the polished kitchen knife and the new one. After using the kitchen knife, it should be wiped dry or drained in time. When cut greasy or sticky things, it should be cleaned in time, otherwise it will corrode the knife surface. If it is an iron knife, applying cooking oil every time you use it, it will be used to isolate the air, so that even if you don’t use it for a long time, it won’t rust.
or above is the maintenance method of kitchen knife. Have you learned it?
