Kitchen Scissors for Tough Cooking Jobs
With sharp edges and easy-to-grip handles, kitchen scissors are ideal cutting tools for any cook. Also called kitchen shears, these are specifically designed to cut cleanly through vegetables, fruits, meat and more. They’re extra sharp for this purpose, in comparison to regular scissors for the office. You may need to hold them at awkward angles, which is why they often feature rubber grips. Some also include serrated edges which allow them to stay even sharper for longer periods of time.
What are kitchen scissors used for
There are many different types of jobs in the kitchen that you could use scissors for. Rather than pulling out a knife and cutting board, kitchen scissors allow you to snip herbs finely with ease. They’re useful for cutting up vegetables for a salad, including snipping lettuce into fine strips. Many are specifically designed for meat cutting purposes, allowing you to trim fat off of cuts of meat or cut bacon into small pieces. Trim your cuts of fish, chicken, or beef with ease.
How to choose kitchen scissors
• Kitchen scissors or shears will vary in shape depending on their function. There are all-purpose scissors as well as more specialty options. For example, some feature a serrated blade which helps them cut through chicken and fish with ease. • It’s important to clean kitchen scissors properly, as with any kitchen tool. With this in mind, some models can be taken apart at the hinge to make it easy to clean in all the little nooks and crannies that might be prone to harbouring bacteria. • Multi-function scissors could come equipped with multiple blades for shredding, and offer extra features like bottle openers. • If you’re left-handed, look for models designed to be held easily in the left hand. Some are designed to be handled with ease by both righties and lefties.
