Knife Skills (that actually matter at home)

@andy_cooksAbout
So you want to know a little more about me? I grew up in New Zealand. I think I was about 3 years old when I first put on an apron and started helping my mum in the kitchen. I was a terrible student. So, I unenrolled myself from school in year 10 and enrolled myself into chef school. Fast forward to now, I have cooked in some great restaurants in Auckland, London, Sydney and Melbourne. I also spent time in the business-side of hospitality, managing restaurants, cafes and bars in airports and mucking around with great Australian beef and lamb in a test kitchen. It’s a pretty incredible thing to be able to share what I cook with so many people now. I appreciate you all and love when you comment, ask questions and request your favourite dish. I have some pretty big goals for my food content, especially my YouTube channel. Andy x

Twenty years of professional cooking taught me something: most knife skills they drill into you in culinary school? Pretty useless when you're cooking at home. So what actually matters? The real fundamentals that make you confident with a knife - from picking the right one to understanding how proper technique changes everything about cooking at home. This is what I wish someone had told me when I started cooking. Not the fancy stuff, just the essentials that actually make a difference. #KnifeSkills #ChefTips #HomeCooking #CookingBasics MY PRODUCTS: https://bit.ly/AndyCooksEssentials MY COOKBOOK: https://bit.ly/3WVoXAN TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Intro 01:34 Knife Care 08:57 Proteins 20:01 Vegetables 31:48 Carving FOLLOW ME: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andyhearnden TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@andy_cooks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/andy.h.cooks Website with all my recipes: https://www.andy-cooks.com/ Director, Chef and Host: Andy Producer: James Threadwell Videographer: Ben Hasic Editor: Caleb Dawkins Kitchen Manager: Sarah Allchurch #knifeskills #kitchenknife #chef #homecook #foodprep
