Look for an email from me soon!
I would NEVER consider myself a gourmet chef by any means — I make simple meals with simple ingredients… but everything usually tastes good (at least that’s what Dave tells me!) However, even though I don’t cook gourmet meals, it’s still nice to work with gourmet cooking tools — especially if they are designed specifically with the home chef in mind.
Today’s Weekend Giveaway features a gorgeous 6″ Wüsthof Classic Chopper Knife… and let me tell you, I feel like a gourmet chef when I’m using it!
Unlike standard utility knives, Wüsthof’s new Classic 6″ Utility Chopper features a wide blade and reversed scalloped edge that cuts easily without shredding or tearing. The scalloped blade reduce blade “stickiness” when slicing though starchy vegetables and the wide blade design makes it easy to scoop up chopped ingredients from the cutting board and dump them into pans or bowls.
The Chopper is ideal for everyday food prep, in everyday homes, for everyday chefs like us!
That is the theme of Wüsthof’s new microsite. They are “defining the Edgë” and revolutionizing the tools available for home chefs.
If you’re looking for a great knife to add to your collection, you’ll definitely want to enter my giveaway below. And if you’re looking for an entire new set of knives, head on over to WusthofEdge.com to see their selection of beautiful knives… you’ll probably start drooling!
