  3 Signs Your Kitchen Knives Need Sharpening A sharp knife isn’t just a pleasure to use; it’s safer, cleaner, and more efficient. Whether you’re a home cook or a professional chef, recognising when your knives need attention can save you frustration in the kitchen and extend the life of your blades. Here are the three biggest signs it’s time to book a sharpening. 1. Your Knife Struggles With Tomatoes, Herbs, or Onions If you’ve ever tried to slice a tomato and ended up squashing it instead, that’s your knife crying out for help. A sharp blade should glide effortlessly through delicate produce. The same goes for herbs; a dull edge crushes rather than cuts, releasing too much moisture and affecting both flavour and presentation. Onions become a slippery, uneven mess when your edge isn’t doing its job. Quick test: Place the edge on a tomato skin and gently press forward; if it doesn’t bite immediately, it’s time for sharpening. 2. Your Knife Slips or Forces You to Use Extra Pre...

  How a Razor-Sharp Edge Elevates Flavour and Texture When most people think about sharp knives, their first thought is safety—and they’re right. A sharp edge gives you more control and reduces the chances of slipping. But what many home cooks and even professionals overlook is this: ✅ A razor-sharp knife doesn’t just make cooking easier—it makes food taste better. 1. Sharp Knives Protect Ingredients, Especially Herbs Soft, delicate ingredients are the first to suffer when a knife is dull. Herbs such as basil, mint, parsley, and coriander bruise easily. A dull blade crushes instead of slicing, releasing excess oils and moisture. The result? Wet, darkened leaves Loss of aroma Bitter flavours Limp, wilted presentation A sharp knife glides cleanly through herbs, keeping their edges crisp and green. You get bright flavours, fresh aromas, and a plate that looks as good as it tastes. 2. Clean Cuts Preserve Texture Every ingredient has a structure—whether it’s a ...
