Kitchen little things (2)

I also bought such a knife holder at FP. There were three colors, mine is gray. I put almost all the knives into it, it turned out compactly + the scissors are now stored in it.

[Marina]

Marina, cool - so many knives fit!

are green

I took it and passed the price fix. Only on the bus did I read about greens.

A Fix Price store has opened in our area, I go there every other day. And all that is needed. I also noticed these coasters, but I didn't even have a thought to buy. And now I really, really need this stand, right at least run into the night.

Oh ,,,, well now I need you too ...

Oh ,,,, well now I need you too ...

But I don’t need it, but now I want to, I’ll repeat the mantra now: I don’t need it, I don’t need

[Buttercup]

Buttercup, I didn’t have to either, repeat it for me too !!

[Olya]

Olya,

okay, mantra: Olya and I don't need it, Olya and I don't need it, don't I say!

[Buttercup]

Buttercup, if only it would work ..

But today I was brainwashing myself on the topic, at least a month without shopping to hold out.

[Dunyaz]

Dunyaz, I didn't get it in Ikea ...

[Dunyaz]

Dunyaz, I didn't get it in Ikea ...

I'm cunning, I don't go there

sly

I didn't succeed .. promised

And I have already passed the stage. Fixprice used to sell similar round coasters, the colors were marble-like, light and dark. I used it for a long time, but the wall magnet overcame it. I bought it anyway. I came to the store, took a magnet for knives, took a knife right there, stuck it, made sure that it was not flimsy, reliable. The knife was in place, but I bought a magnet. In the very corner of the kitchen "stuck" with a bunch of knives. Satisfied ...

Maybe it was already, but I will share. I bought a knife to remove the core from WB.

I like it. Not flimsy, at a time 2.5 kg of apples for marshmallow calmly made.

Good evening! I don't know which topic to go with my question. I'll ask you here, and you will send me to the right address. It often happens that boiled meat (chicken, beef, pork) needs to be cut into cubes into a salad, and on the scale of a basin. My Philips cube cutter blender cuts boiled meat into cubes, if it is previously frozen, otherwise it will just be porridge-pate. But there is not always time and place in the freezer for this procedure, and it is difficult to maintain the required condition (somewhere it was very cold, somewhere it was not at all frozen). Can you please tell me if there are any tools (other than a knife) to cut boiled meat into cubes?

[Mandraik Ludmila]

Mandraik Ludmila, include me in the mantra too.
It will definitely work for three.
In the city I have a magnet, but at the dacha there is nothing under the knives, in the new house I need some kind of renovation.

As many knives cannot fit on a magnet as in this stand. The magnet will fit 5-6 knives, and about 30 pieces in the stand (I counted the number of slots and tried to put a knife in each, but in a checkerboard pattern.) In real life, of course, it will fit a little smaller, because some knives have massive handles. Much more convenient than magnetic stripe.

This is just a dream for a circus performer - a knife thrower!

Magnetic holders are available in different lengths. I hung in one line two of the longest Ikea. It's more convenient for me than forcing the countertop.

[Igor]

Igor, laugh, laugh! And I went and bought a green stand. I'll see how it fits in and pleases, then I'll take another black or beige one to the dacha ...



Larissa, but for me, on the contrary, all the walls are hung with rails, the magnet cannot be inscribed anywhere.

There are strips 55 cm long:
🔗
In Globus, such slats were half the price. And I have a standard one:

I measured my magnet, 38 cm, there are 8 knives on it and there is enough space for 2 more. And the scissors hang from the back of the door in a hanging cabinet on a hook.

I, too, would love to hang it on a magnet ... but I have nowhere
Now so

Everyone places the knives as they like. Someone hangs on a magnet, and someone keeps them in stands. I stored knives in one way or another, but at the moment it is more convenient for me in this compact stand. Previously, the choice of knives was meager, they all fit on 2 long magnets. And now the choice of knives is huge. By the way, there were also magnetic strips in Fix.

It bothered me very much that it was not possible to open such a stand, and the liquid from wet knives accumulates a little bit

On the contrary, I was surprised in the store that there are 2 grates in the container, they were normally installed and removed.

Everyone places the knives as they like. Someone hangs on a magnet, and someone keeps them in stands.

At one time, when I was choosing knives, I was sooooo confused by the topic of which knives to choose, boards for them, and, accordingly, storage. So, knife-obsessed chefs insist that the most gentle and correct way to store knives is on a magnet. The blade is less likely to be damaged.

they were normally installed and removed.

Cool, you can always put in order!

There are strips 55 cm long

The manufacturer of the strip "Magnetic strip Everything is in the field King, 190244, beige, 55x4 cm", or rather his marketers, burns

at the moment I am more comfortable in this compact stand. Previously, the choice of knives was meager, they all fit on 2 long magnets. And now the choice of knives is huge

Oh, Marina, what are you: much less knives fit in the "glass"! Even on a short magnetic ikeevsky bar (it is ~ 30-40 cm) in my summer cottage version there are 12 to 15 knives, and in a similar glass (though I have a German one with a synthetic "hair" filling) at most 8. What is really here talk about two long slats, each of which is 55 cm long!

I, too, would love to hang it on a magnet ... but I have nowhere

Similarly! And I'll try to attach the stand somewhere)

The knives are normally placed in the hair stand while it is new. During operation, these hairs all bend and you have to push the knives in, especially with a wide blade. In this stand, the knives are inserted vertically into the slots and do not dangle. And placing such a number of not small knives with heavy hands on a magnet is fraught with, you can get hurt if you do not carefully remove such a knife. This is not my option.

Today I courageously walked past the fixed price, repeating to myself "we don't need ..."

I also usually pass by, but here I had to buy soap. And then in stores now they sell pieces of soap such that you just attach it to a magnet, and only a remnant of it remains. And in Fix, while there is soap of a normal size (I took Strawberry and Khvoinoe), and also bought Japanese washcloths (in the household, they are more expensive).

[Svetlenki]

Svetlenki, I'm there in your topic "curry cakes ..." noted, look there, pliz.

So, the chefs who are obsessed with knives insist that the most gentle and correct way to store knives is on a magnet. The blade is less likely to be damaged.

But in Feng Shui it is bad (knives on a magnet, or rather not in a magnet, but in the fact that the knife blade is in sight), look. :-)

Feng Shui is bad

Galya, my Feng Shui mother did not know such a word, but she always made the knives to be put in the kitchen drawer at night, and in the daytime to cover the blade with something, but at least put it under a plate or cover it with a towel. This is how her grandmother taught. And I always do this, I don't know why, but since the old people did, it means that there is something in it.

Immediately I apologize for the flood, but I will take a lot of rules and rules associated with knives. Some are, of course, just superstition or safety-related. But the part really works and feels. Even according to Feng Shui, even according to Slavic traditions.

Since childhood, I have been accustomed to the fact that only a man cuts bread in a family, that you cannot prick bread with a knife / fork, that knives should never be left on the table overnight in the kitchen, that you cannot eat from a knife. In our family, we never point a knife lying on a plate or table with its tip at someone and make sure that even by accident, somewhere in a box, the knife does not end up on the edge, etc.
And, probably, everyone knows that you cannot give knives and that if the knife falls to the floor - wait for a guest

ended up on the edge

Oh, I didn't know that ... but I just moved it to the chchik, and there is a stand just for the blade down, I can’t ?? And my neighbor gave me a knife, he doesn't need it, it's rather peculiar for him, but I gave money for it ..

I have knives in a wooden stand. Are they stupid too? I just really do not like it when something hangs on the apron: knives, ladles, spoons, etc. Yes, I also have a glass one, figs there you can attach now. Yes, and the knives are heavy, it seems to me that I will certainly take them off the magnet and level inaccurately or cut myself.
It was just that Svetino read the statement about storage and became thoughtful. Knives are not cheap, I really cherish them and love them, and if they are blunt in a wooden stand .... and a magnet is not an option, then what then. But in a stand, they are stored at an angle (not vertically) sideways and 4 knives upside down.
Like this

Are they stupid too?

No. Knives become dull when they are in bulk, especially interspersed with other cutlery, moreover, then the risk of cutting yourself increases when trying to take any piece of such a pile. In all cases where the knife blade does not come into contact with anything excessively hard, the sharpness of the blade does not suffer. It is ideal, but in most cases hardly salable, to store each knife in a special case or twist.
And Emelianenko, and Ramzi, and Oliver keep knives in stands

and if unmarried? Everyone, sit like a fool, without bread?))
Amused the dispute about knives, reminded the enmity of blunt-pointed and pointed-tips))
Sorry



My attitude is somehow easier. At home - on a magnet and in a table, in the country - in a stand (and a common one) and also in a table. There was also a stand, worn out it so that it would not take up space. Dull - sharpened, tired - bought new ones. These are just knives.

Temka visited, can someone come in handy.
I was looking for a bucket made of stainless steel, I bought it, and he has corners for draining on both sides. The lid is large, and there are holes of different diameters on the side wall on both sides of it, it is convenient to drain, the lid does not need to be opened. Moreover, the handles are silicone green. I added pots for 3 and 5 liters to the ladle

🔗

As for the knives, if there is no room. And I have a magnet screwed vertically next to the window. It turned out to be very convenient, by the way.

and if unmarried? Everyone, sit like a fool, without bread?))

Not everything is so sad, there are a couple of options!
Buy sliced ​​bread! Then you can save on the knife ...
I do not even advise the option to get married - it will be very expensive!

Has anyone tried using a silicone bag to knead sourdough bread dough? The nastiest part about baking for me. So I'm looking closely

[Zagoryanka]

Zagoryanka, I already asked, but about the dumplings dough, and no one answered anything concrete.
I knead the dumplings dough through a regular bag, but first I mix flour and liquid with knives in a chopper.

KroNa, thanks! I watched videos on YouTube about dumplings. This is only about bread. If there is no answer on such an authoritative forum, I will take a chance and try. It costs a penny in Povareshka-Brownie. Anyway, now I will order a shovel there

Oh, I didn't know that

Not to keep a knife on the edge - this is the first rule in our family, I got it from my mother. She said that it was a scandal or trouble.

If there is no answer on such an authoritative forum, I will take a chance and try.

Don't forget to share with us later. I wanted to buy this bag several times, but I never bought it. Also my bag afterwards.
Convenience is individual. Now the machines are kneading the dough, but before, when any dough was kneaded by hand, no process caused me rejection.
