Knife Skills class at Sur la Table

A week ago last Saturday, Susie and I, along with four other students spent a couple of hours honing our knife skills.

Taught by veteran chef and instructor Kathleen Schiefler at Sur la Table here in Grand Rapids, the class was fun and informative.

Since I'm still a klutz with a honing steel I picked up a nice hand-held sharpener from Global; and I also had the opportunity to use a wonderful little peeler, which can easily peel even tomatoes! How cool is that?

that little green thing is the peeler I referred to earlier
