{"title":"Santoku knives","description":"\u003cp\u003eA good Santoku knife cuts vegetables, fish and meat into thin, even slices without the ingredients sticking to the blade – on some blades, this is achieved by the so-called hollow-edge grind. Taiga stocks Santoku knives from Güde with 14 and 18 cm blade lengths, from the Alpha and Alpha-Olive series and the Caminada line, each with either a hollow-edge grind or a smooth blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuying guide: hollow edge or smooth blade?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hollow-edge grind – the small indentations along the blade – reduces the contact area with the food being cut, allowing vegetable slices to come away from the blade more easily, particularly with moist or starchy ingredients such as potatoes. A smooth blade without indentations is easier to resharpen and makes a minimally slimmer cut. When it comes to length, choose 14 cm for precise, detailed work and 18 cm for more cutting power when preparing larger quantities. The olive wood handles from the Alpha-Olive series sit securely and comfortably in the hand and are not dishwasher-safe.
