Victorinox knives . chefs knife. pairing knife . bread knife

I think Mercer is the cheap gold standard

Love my Shun knives.

You’ll want a chef’s knife (or utility knife, if you prefer) and paring knife, at minimum. Serrated and bread knives are good additions after that. A cheese knife or wire cheese slicer is good after that, if you like cheese.

Also big diff between German and Japanese knives - I personally don’t like shun / global et al bc they feel too light / unbalanced, but I have a giant Japanese hand made chef’s knife that I love - but it’s for a different style of prep than European knives. Do try stuff, too. Remember that a good whetstone (not those dumb knife sharpeners, an actual whetstone - king 1k/6k is a great one) - makes all the difference - a sharp $40 knife is way better than a dull $400 knife

+1 on shun, have a Damascus chef’s knife beauty that has a few scars as I learn my whetstone.

I have global knives that are in amazing shape after four years

Does it matter if I don’t meet the specific job requirements when transferring H1B? The job posted requires CPA license but I haven’t got it. The employer is still willing to hire me. I know for PERM process, meeting minimum requirements is important but not sure if H1B have such requirement. I heard that for H1B as long as it’s a position requiring bachelors degree and specifically occupation that should be fine. But kinda worried about this.

As it’s been getting colder I’ve been dabbling in soups. This is a brie and mushroom soup paired with balsamic onion & mushroom toast. It was super tasty and really hit the spot. It can also be used in place of cream of mushroom from a can in recipes if you’re looking for a different taste.
