You have 100 good knives, but you don't have a pair of scissors? Introduction to purchasing kitchen scissors
If we say necessary household goods, scissors must have a place. Of course, there are many kinds of household scissors, such as hairdressing scissors for cutting hair, sewing scissors for tailoring, potted scissors for trimming flowers and plants, and manual scissors. These building owners only know their existence, do not understand it, lack research, and naturally have no right to speak. Today, the building owners just talk about the "kitchen scissors" that we ignore in their familiar fields.
Those who often buy Kitchenware online should find a classification called "knife and cutting board", which is actually three things: kitchen knife, kitchen scissors and cutting board. Many people tend to pay more attention to the kitchen knife in the first place and ignore the latter two. However, in the process of family cooking, the importance of the latter two can be said to complement the kitchen knife.
In the previous kitchen knife purchase strategy, I once set aside a small piece to cut the kitchen scissors, but only a few words,
Today, the landlord of this article will talk in detail about my experience here.
Use of kitchen scissors & purchase "Ten Commandments"
1. Kitchen scissors can be used to complete some food processing operations that are inconvenient or impossible to complete with kitchen knives, such as opening the back of shrimp, cutting open the belly of fish, treating crabs like the head picture, cutting the bones of chicken and fish, and cutting scallions, peppers and other food materials into small sections into the pot. At the same time, some plastic bags that are difficult to tear open are more efficient to operate with kitchen scissors.
Cut the package with scissors, and the cut is clean and flat. If some seasoning packages are unpacked by hand, they may splash powder, oil and water everywhere because of their strength. Using scissors is convenient and clean.
These are only the basic functional applications of kitchen scissors. If it is a multifunctional kitchen scissors, it may also have functions such as fish scale scraper, walnut clip, bottle opener, can lifter and so on.
2. Kitchen knives burn endlessly, and no amount of budget is enough. A durable kitchen scissors that can meet daily needs can be done for less than 100 yuan.
Generally speaking, we need two kitchen scissors to meet all cooking needs, a thick multifunctional scissors and a light curved blade scissors.
3. Don't buy kitchen scissors with stainless steel handles, such as fujichiro. In short, the anti-skid performance and grip feeling of the handle are better.
4. It's good to have many functions, but if you just have many functions, it doesn't necessarily feel good. If you don't feel good, it's inconvenient to use, so when you buy, you should use the "feel" function. Never buy this kind of scissors with strange shape and thin material:
5. The size of kitchen scissors should not be too small. The key depends on the length of the blade. It is more appropriate to be more than 6cm.
6. The steel at the cutting edge shall be thick, properly damped and not loose or tight when engaged.
7. The zigzag design of single-sided blade is much easier to use than that of double-sided non zigzag design, so try to buy kitchen scissors with single-sided zigzag design.
8. What's the use of sawtooth design on the blade? The smaller the spacing of the sawteeth, the sharper the scissors are. It can help bite meat and other fatty foods, which is not easy to slip when cutting.
Generally speaking, you can do rough work, such as direct cutting of bone, and the sawtooth will be sparse, while for precise operations, such as curved blade cutting of fish and shrimp, the sawtooth will be more detailed for different ingredients.
9. In the same way as the blade can't be too small, the handle can't be too small. It's better to insert the thumb and index finger, middle finger and ring finger. Otherwise, it's not easy. It's a small matter to strangle the hand pain, and it may slip due to uneven force.
10. Try to buy products from professional scissors manufacturers, which will be better in material and design.
