It is versatile and can be used to chop various foods, from hearty rotisserie chickens to delicate tomatoes. Whether you prefer a Santoku or a traditional chef's knife, it is a must-have in your cutlery collection.</li> <li><strong>Pairing Knife: </strong>When you are knife shopping, you can't forget to pick up a pairing knife to maximize efficiency when chopping smaller items. They are ideal for tasks that require more precision and control, like peeling fruits or mincing garlic.</li> <li><strong>Serrated Knife:</strong> A serrated knife is an excellent option for slicing bread or other items with a tough surface. Its saw-like edges provide the extra grip needed for such foods. This type of knife is especially useful for cutting bagels and thick cuts of meat like roast or steak.</li> </ul> <hr /> <p><strong>What is a Santoku knife used for?</strong></p> <p>A Santoku is a Japanese, general-purpose knife mostly used for chopping and dicing fruits and vegetables. It is similar to a chef's knife but is slightly smaller and lighter, with many having noticeable flutes on the blade. These small flutes allow air pockets to flow through, which can help prevent food from sticking to the blade as you chop. A Santoku is an excellent knife to have on hand when you are prepping a large amount of fruits to display on a platter.</p>
