This caveman needs cutlery! Shopping advice please,. (pic. of old …

May 21st, 2012

Hi Mike, thanks for the question.

I am a crazy shopper because it takes me months (sometimes years) to do my research because I buy nothing but the best (or what I consider the best in my situation).

So…

I bought knives that I am very happy with but you won’t be able to get them because they are from Europe. Actually, they are made in Finland.

But I can tell you the features that I really really like so you can see if you would like the same in knives.

First of all, I hate those wooden holders where most people keep their knives. I don’t think they are hygienic.

Second of all, I hate those plastic handles because food gets stuck between the handles and the blade. You really cannot wash them properly.

The knives I have now are seamless and are made of one piece of metal – handles and all. No metal stubs (or whatever you call those knobs). All metal, one piece. No place for food particles to get stuck. Extremely hygienic.

I personally do not like larger knives and prefer small ones. So I did not buy a set – I bought about six small paring knifes. I also own two larger knives, but I never use them – just don’t like them I guess.

I cut chicken bones with special kitchen scissors.

I have heard a lot of good things about Kyocera knives… but I am happy with my knives and I would never change them for anything else.

See what works for you and buy accordingly.

My knives look a little like these http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/chicago-cutlery-insignia-steel-18-piece-cutlery-block-set

How to pack a perfect summer picnic lunch – Rada Cutlery

May 15th, 2012


The summer months are approaching fast and soon kids will be out of school.You can keep your kids active and away from the video games by treating them to a day in the park with a picnic lunch.

Picnics do not have to be limited to the park. You can also have your picnic in other locations, such as, the pool, baseball field, soccer field and many other places depending on your plan for that day.

How to pack a picnic lunch

We made two recipes in our Rada Cutlery Test kitchen that will help you pack a perfect picnic for you and your children. Both recipes are fun finger food so the silverware can be left at home.

The first recipe is a refreshingly, sweet apple berry salsa that can be made in minutes. It is the perfect companion to a picnic lunch and can be served with cinnamon pita chips or cinnamon tortilla chips.

Ingredients for fruit salsa

What you will need…

  • 2 medium apples
  • 2 kiwi
  • 1 orange
  • 2 C. fresh or frozen strawberries
  • 2 T. brown sugar
  • 2 T. orange juice
  • 2 T. apple jelly
  • Measuring utensils, paring knife, mixing spoon, food chopper, measuring cup and spoons.

Cooking instructions…

  1. First dice apples.
  2. Then use chopper to chop the rest of it. *Note: Your salsa thickness preference will decide how much you chop the salsa. The more you chop the thinner the salsa will be.
  3. Finally mix all together and serve with chips.

Apple Berry Fruit Salsa

The second recipe is a turkey ranch wrap that is easy to make and your kids can help assemble the wraps. The recipe can be easily modified with ingredients of your choosing. The recipe we used makes four wraps.

Turkey Ranch Wrap Ingredients

What you will need…

Turkey Ranch Wraps

  • 8 turkey deli slices
  • 4 flour tortillas (7 in)
  • 1 large tomato, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium green pepper, cut into thin strips
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup Ranch salad dressing
  • Knife (Rada’s tomato slicer is perfect for cutting tomatoes without squishing them)

Cooking instructions…

  1. Place two slices of turkey on each tortilla.
  2. Layer with tomato, green pepper, lettuce and cheese.
  3. Drizzle with salad dressing.
  4. Roll up tightly.
  5. Refrigerate or keep in a cooler until you are ready for your picnic or serve immediately.

Along with your picnic lunch pack a craft or activity for your kids to make outside. If you are looking for some ideas here are 60 different summer activities your kids will love. This list includes everything from making homemade stamps to activities like creating a fun obstacle course.

May 12th, 2012


The school year is winding down and soon the graduation party season will begin. Giving a gift that your graduate can use will be something he or she will really appreciate.

Rada Cutlery has many kitchen utensils and products that would be perfect for a high school graduate or college graduate.

Below is a sample basket where we selected a variety of different items we thought would be useful for a college student and arranged them in a basket for a unique, customizable gift. You can choose your favorite items when developing your graduation gifts.

Graduation Gift Basket

In our basket we included:

Pizza Cutter: Pizza is a college student’s best friend and for those with a pizzazz or pizza oven this pizza cutter will definitely come in handy. The cutter can quickly cut all types of pizza from frozen to homemade.

Ice Cream Scoop: Ice cream is a basic food group for some college students so we thought this would be a perfect item to include in our gift basket. Rada’s ice cream scoop serves the hardest ice cream with ease.

Paring knife: This knife is small and comes in handy for a college student. It is the perfect introduction, for your graduate, to the Rada Cutlery’s knife selection, and it very useful for cutting foods, like fruit.

Rada Quick-Grip-Clips: These clips are perfect for resealing bags, especially chip bags. The Rada Quick-Grip-Clip seals the bag so securely you can carry the bag by the clip without worrying about it slipping out.

Oodles and Oodles of Ramen Noodles: When a person thinks of a stereotypical college student they probably picture them eating Ramen. This cookbook provides recipes for meals and even desserts using this affordable ingredient.

Quick Mixes: At Rada we offer a variety of Quick Mixes including soups, dips and sauces. We included Quick Mixes from our 6 different soups that provide a homemade taste and are easy to make, like the Cheddar Broccoli Soup and the Baked Potato Soup.

Peanut Butter cookbook: The Peanut Butter cookbook has fun, easy to make recipes with peanut butter as the main ingredient. The cookbook is pocket sized so it is very easy to store. Rada also offers 7 other books focusing on one main ingredient, like bananas and chocolate, with 101 recipes.

Candles: Lit candles are usually not allowed in most dorm rooms but candle warmers are allowed. All the candles we sell are made from 100% stabilized natural soy wax-a biodegradable resource. There are 14 different scents to choose from and two sizes to choose from, a 16 ounce and 4 ounce candle.

Set the mood with Linen Tablecloths | Linen House

May 9th, 2012

When having guests round, we tend to stress about how to lay the dinner table, why not use beautiful linen tablecloths to start off with? When organising a formal dinner party, don’t stress, just relax and work out the obvious. Remember you are not just setting the table, you are setting the mood!

How many people will be coming? This will determine how much cutlery will be placed on the table and how many chairs you have to set out, remember to make sure there is plenty of room for the guests to feel comfortable.

Now, to determinate what age group the guests are. In all informal or formal dinners, age is very important when setting a table. You need to think about how many children are coming, ensuring to include a selected area to seat children, so adults can feel at ease. Also, making sure that the best prized cutlery is not at the children’s end of the table, to avoid damage and safety.

Now who is the host of the evening? This person will be the drink server to the guests, you may even want to go all out and have a few people serving drinks. The key to a pleasant dinner party, is to make guests feel welcome; make sure everybody has a drink from the beginning of the meal to the end.

In traditional table settings, the cutlery is placed in order of use, for example there will be knives and spoons set on the right hand side of the plate; the cutlery furthest away from the plate, will be the knives and spoons for the starter. The left hand side of the plate, is where the folks belong, however, all cutlery can be moved to suit different people.

Although, each formal dinner has a basic guideline, they do not always get followed. According to how many courses there are on the menu, determinates how much cutlery is needed. This can differ depending on whether you are having a formal or informal gathering as well.

In order to ensure, the guests at the dinner are well hydrated, make sure there is a bottle of wine or other refreshments at hand. Glasses at a formal meal are essential, they are usually placed above the knives and spoons, to enable easy reach and this can also differ depending on that certain person.

Napkins are also considered a luxury when setting the table. You can roll or fold napkins into different shapes, depending on which look you are going for; napkins are usually essentials for restaurants. They can even, be placed in large wine glasses neatly, to create a luxurious feel.

When decorating the dinner table, after setting the cutlery, do ensure that it’s not over done with large flowers or objects. As this can obstruct the guest’s views of one another at the table, and may make the table feel too over crowded.

When setting a dinner table, the key is to be prepared. Whether it’s a formal or informal dinner, ensure a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere for your guests. Enjoy and entertain guests when laying a formal dinner with linen tablecloths.
