Knife Care Tips
When we asked the experts for the biggest mistake that home cooks make when cleaning their knives, they had one clear answer: “Leaving knives soaking in the sink. It’s a one-way ticket to rust, dullness, and a potential horror-movie scene when you reach in blindly,” Carulli summarizes.   Middleton expanded on the dullness issue by explaining that, when a knife is left in the sink, “the blade can hit other steel or ceramic items.  This constant contact dulls the edge, reducing the knife’s sharpness and performance.”
Safety becomes a concern with sink-soaking because “someone could unknowingly reach in and cut themselves. To protect both your knife and yourself, always hand wash it immediately after use, dry it thoroughly, and store properly.”
Have a great day and be safe!
