Knife Steel - And Chopping Onions

[heartlessvietboy]

Round Onions are not good for your health. Cooking or Drying them reduces harmful ions tremendously.

@heartlessvietboy Yeah the square ones are easier to cut too.

I disagree with your comment about replacing a steel once its ridges have worn. after theyre worn the steel gets better.

Hm.. thanks.

I disagree with your comment about replacing a steel once it's ridges have worn smooth. A smooth steel is just as good for it's purpose as a ridged steel.

After cutting with a blade the edge will not be straight under a microscope: some waves show where the edge has been bent. The steel is used to push that wavy edge upright. You should only use LIGHT pressure when drawing the edge of the blade across the steel, alternating sides. The pressure should get less with each draw.

you said onions are good for the heart? they're also good for diabetes too because they work with the pancreas.

Great personable style. I love the witty comment about the pieces not being even cousins. But most importantly, I now finally know how to use a sharpening steel.
