Paella

I made this Paella, entered into a contest and never heard anything about it. 


It's right here.

I had a great time making it, I even used a wood fire!

Size does matter!

Been a year..almost

Since my last post. So on my almost anniversary of silence I guess I'll update. I am now the proud owner of two very nice folded carbon steel knives. My wife looked at one of them the wrong way and it cut her finger from across the room. Ok, thats a lie, but they are that sharp. Which leads me to my point on knife safety more people get hurt from dull knives then from sharp ones, honestly. I used to work at a wine bar and we were constantly slicing and chopping and 9 times out of 10 the injuries were due to the knife not being sharp enough and taking the tip off someones finger and right into a salad (happened only once, and we may or may not have noticed that the tip of the finger was in the salad after we served it). The other 10% comes from not paying attention. So when handling knives, sharpen them and pay attention, otherwise you'll have to comp someones meal and give them free dessert...

I digress, I received a Shun knife for Christmas and it is as beautiful as it is sharp. It is a 6 inch damascus patterned chef's knife and if you have the money i definately recommend this beautiful  knife.
