Scissors in the kitchen

In every chef’s kitchen, whether you’re an enthusiastic home cook or a professional, high-quality knives are essential, but so are various other tools, including kitchen scissors. Unlike ordinary office scissors, these are more durable and designed specifically for food preparation. In many cases, kitchen scissors can replace a knife, making cutting and prepping food more convenient and faster.

And if you often need to move around with your kitchen tools, it’s good to know that Chefrollbag’s knife rolls have space not just for knives, but also for your essential scissors. This ensures that your tools are always organized and ready for any culinary task.

KITCHEN SCISSORS – VARIOUS USES

Kitchen scissors come in different sizes, designs, and are made from various types of steel. Their functionality can be enhanced with additional features. Here’s how they can be used in the kitchen:

Fish Cleaning: The sharp tip makes it easy to cut open the belly. You can quickly trim fins and heads of small fish. Some models even come with serrated edges for scaling, and smaller fish can be cut into pieces.

Opening Packages: Kitchen scissors can easily cut through boxes, bags, strings, and other packaging materials. They provide a clean cut with less risk of damaging the contents inside, and they're safer to use than a knife.

Chopping Herbs: Take a bunch of dill, basil, or parsley and chop it directly into a bowl or pot. This not only speeds up the process but also eliminates the need to wash a cutting board.

Poultry Cutting: When it comes to cutting through chicken wings, cartilage, and other small parts of a bird, nothing compares to kitchen scissors. They handle the elastic connective tissue with ease.

Cutting Dough: Whether it’s trimming excess dough, creating perfect edges, or making strips for pie decorations, scissors get the job done efficiently.

Vegetable and Fruit Prep: Kitchen scissors help you trim green beans, garlic shoots, and asparagus, cut off green tops from carrots and beets, and break cauliflower or broccoli into florets. This versatile tool simplifies fruit and vegetable prep.

Slicing Pastries: Not just for pizza cutters, scissors are also great for slicing delicate pastries without scratching your baking sheet.

Chopping Preserves: You can cut juicy peaches, apricots, tomatoes, or pineapples directly in the jar without splashing juice all over the counter.

Cutting Dried Fruits: Chop sun-dried tomatoes or dried fruits directly onto your plate.

Cracking Nuts: Some scissors come with a built-in nutcracker, making it easy to separate kernels from shells.

Seafood Prep: Scissors are handy for opening shellfish, peeling shrimp, and deveining them.

Opening Jars: Some models have special grooves to open beer bottles and hooks to pry open jars of pickles.

TIPS FOR CHOOSING THE RIGHT KITCHEN SCISSORS

To ensure your kitchen scissors are reliable, durable, and don’t require frequent sharpening, consider the following:

Type of Steel: The material should be strong and resistant to corrosion. High-carbon stainless steel is ideal, with additives like molybdenum or vanadium for extra durability and rust resistance.

Additional Features: If you plan to use your scissors for a variety of tasks, choose models with hooks and extra features for cracking nuts or opening bottles.

Assembly Type: It’s convenient if the blades can be easily separated. This allows you to clean all the joints thoroughly after cutting strong-smelling foods and sharpen the blades when necessary.

Have the right tool

Sometimes you can hack your way to getting things done, and sometimes you just need to have the right tool.

For example, I could use a flat head screwdriver to pinch hit for a phillips head screwdriver, but the job just gets done a lot faster with the right tool. Besides, it only costs about 20 bucks for a set of screwdrivers, they don’t take up much space (even in my New York studio) and it’s pretty handy to have them when I need them - even if that isn’t very often.
