Basic Knife Skills and Chicken Breakdown Class

april 18, 2024 at 6:15pm

Buying a whole chicken not only makes more sense financially, but it also allows a more delicious way to buy chicken and the opportunity to make the most of the whole bird. We will discuss the parts of the chicken, as well as the farm and diet of our birds. This class will cover knife parts, sharpening, honing, and basic knife skills through cutting vegetables. Participants will have the hands on experience of how to break down a whole chicken and will take their bird home. Please bring a chef’s knife and a 6″ boning knife. If you need to use our knives, please mention that when registering. Class is limited to 10 participants. We require a 24 hour cancellation notice based on the limited number of participants.
