I thought he went about it as well as possible. He already covered knife shopping and sharpening before, and because there was so much to fit into the episode it didn't make sense to go in depth on existing recipes that are knife-centric.<BR/><BR/>As someone who hasn't had formal culinary training (like 97% of his audience), I'm usually somewhat mystified by the magical appearance of uniformly chopped/sliced/julienned/whatever ingredients, or the incredible ease of which Alton (and every other cooking show host as well) can carve up whatever he needs to. Actually being shown, step-by-step, how to go about doing these cuts was great to see. It was perhaps his most informative and instructional show in years.Dave Pogorzalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18326303697107442307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558317663186845446.post-14082634648626805122008-01-20T09:34:00.000-05:002008-01-20T09:34:00.000-05:00Your absolutely right about American Slicer.
