Every kitchen has one, every cook needs one. Knife: The Cult, Craft and Culture of the Cook’s Knife is an essential, informative, and great looking book all about the history, form, and creation of knives. If this humble culinary tool fascinates you as much as it should, you’ll love everything about this book from it’s alluring illustrations to it’s lustful photography. Interviewing knife-makers, chefs, and collectors, Tim Hayward explores how the relationship between the chef and blade has evolved the knife as well as the ways we prepare food. Knife is essentially a reference book with descriptions and photographs of over 40 types of knife, including Damascus blades, Chinese cleavers, and sushi knives. If this all sounds great but you don’t even know how to properly hold a knife, read this book and you’ll be an expert on knife-wielding grips and techniques.
There’s a myriad of ways to brew your morning coffee, one of the favourites for flavour is to heat it on a stove using a moka pot. The 6-Cup Bialetti Moka Express Espresso Maker will keep you and your friends/family/pets caffeinated throughout the day with great tasting coffee. If a 6-cup version isn’t the size you’re looking for, they come in sizes from 1-cup to 12-cup. The espresso maker works by passing boiling water, pressurised by steam, from the bottom section through the ground coffee and into the top section ready to be poured and enjoyed. Fun fact: So you can sound like a true coffee aficionado while you brew the bean, the moka pot was patented for the first time in Italy in 1933 by its inventor, Luigi De Pointi, for Alfonso Bialetti.
