Master These 5 Cutting Tricks Today

by David_ on Mar 17, 2025
Master These 5 Cutting Tricks Today - Paudin Store

Using the right knife and technique can make cutting ingredients easier, faster, and more enjoyable. Whether you're slicing vegetables, cutting meat, or prepping fruit, mastering these cutting skills will take your cooking to the next level. Let's dive into five essential cutting techniques every home cook should know!

1. How to Cut Vegetables Quickly: Using a Chef’s Knife & Santoku Knife

When it comes to chopping vegetables efficiently, a chef’s knife or Santoku knife is your best friend. These all-purpose knives are designed for precision and speed.

  • Tips for Faster Cutting:

Use the rocking motion: Keep the knife tip on the board and move the handle up and down for smooth, continuous cuts.
Julienne & dice like a pro: Slice vegetables into thin strips first, then chop them into even cubes.
Keep your fingers curled in a "claw grip" to protect them while cutting.
A sharp Paudin chef’s knife will help you cut through veggies effortlessly while maintaining consistency in size.

2. How to Cut Meat with Less Effort

Cutting meat requires the right technique and a sharp blade. Whether you're slicing chicken, beef, or fish, using the right knife makes all the difference.

  • Best Knives for Cutting Meat:

Chef’s knife: Great for slicing raw and cooked meat.
Boning knife: Ideal for removing bones from poultry and fish.
Cleaver: Perfect for cutting through bones and tougher cuts.

  • Tips for Cutting Meat Easily:

Cut against the grain to make the meat more tender.
Use a firm, single-stroke motion rather than sawing back and forth.
For frozen or semi-frozen meat, let it thaw slightly before cutting for cleaner slices.
With the right Paudin kitchen knife, slicing meat becomes effortless and precise.

3. Cutting Fruits and Vegetables Efficiently

Not all fruits and vegetables require the same cutting method. A bread knife and paring knife can help you cut soft and delicate produce without crushing them.

  • Knife Choices:

Bread knife: Perfect for slicing soft fruits like tomatoes, peaches, and avocados without squishing them.
Paring knife: Best for peeling, coring, and slicing smaller fruits like apples and kiwis.

  • Pro Tips:

For soft fruits, use a gentle sawing motion with a serrated knife.
Use a paring knife to remove seeds and cores with precision.
A well-balanced Paudin bread knife makes slicing fruits and delicate produce effortless.

4. Preventing Food from Falling Apart While Cutting

  • Techniques to Avoid Food Damage:

Use a sharp knife—a dull blade crushes instead of slicing.
For herbs, use a rocking motion rather than chopping straight down.
For tomatoes and bread, opt for a serrated knife for clean cuts.
By choosing the right knife for the job, you’ll maintain the freshness and texture of your ingredients.

5. Mastering Professional Cutting Techniques

Chiffonade: Thinly slicing leafy greens and herbs into ribbons.
Brunoise: Finely dicing vegetables for soups and garnishes.
Batonnet: Cutting vegetables into matchstick-sized pieces for stir-fries.
With the Paudin all-purpose knife, you can execute these techniques with precision and ease.

NC4 Universal Classic 4-PC Knife Set
J Pearson
Well made, good-looking knife block made of bamboo.

This knife block is made of solid wood, stands up well as designed and knives remain in place thanks to a strong magnet. It also looks very good. I find it most useful when I'm cooking on the kitchen island. I put the knives I'm going to use on this block so they are right in front of me, ready to use, get out of the way and safe.

Beautiful bamboo knife block that would look great in any kitchen!

This bamboo magnetic knife block is extremely thick and heavy duty. The magnet in them is strong and hangs on to any size knife with ease. It also looks stylish and would look great in any kitchen. It keeps you r knives neat and organized. I myself don't make many large meals anymore, and don't feel safe leaving knives displayed on my counter, so I put the knife block away when not in use. Great investment for the chef in the family and I could easily see this as lasting a lifetime.
