Kitchen Accessories

Many people who are enthralled with preparing food and creating dishes engage in cooking activities without the proper tool kit. That can result in ruined recipes, extra sloppy messes and even worse—damaged cutlery. The best way to prevent any of these unfortunate events is to keep essential items on hand.

For starters, a well-made quality set of knives is needed in every busy kitchen. Such products come with responsibilities, as quality cutlery requires proper storage and proper maintenance. Luckily, there are practical kitchen accessories capable of providing just that. Rhineland Cutlery happens to carry it all: phenomenally made knives as well as products designed to make sure that quality lasts.

Whether for convenience, proper storage or easier clean up, the Rhineland Cutlery accessories listed below will improve any culinary enthusiast’s experience in the kitchen.

Chef Series Chef Roll

The soft cloth material is a safe place to store sharp knives and keep their blades away from unsuspecting handlers. No more unexpected pricks and slices when reaching into a drawer, this chef roll can provide peace of mind.

The material will absorb water and moisture before the knife’s steel is exposed to it, serving as a barrier of protection. It is important to keep the blades and handles of knives free from water to prevent corrosion and staining. Although Rhineland Cutlery knives are made from high quality German steel, it is still best practice to avoid moisture. Rhineland’s Chef Series Roll keeps the knives from unnecessary exposure with a clean and versatile design.

There are four slots on the bottom flap and each is spacious enough to fit a variety of common knife types. Even if your collection is in its beginning stages, this roll will work.

Of all Rhineland Cutlery accessories, this item is most appropriate for chefs and cooks who are always on the move.The Waxed Canvas and Leather Chef Roll has a refined and rustic look to it but maintains ultimate functionality. The lower portion of the roll includes ten slots that will fit a variety of knives. When opened completely and laying flat, three additional placeholders can be found along the flap on the right. A spacious leather pocket secured by a clean zipper is located right above those three slots.

There is a large leather flap that covers every corner of the storage slots when folded over. This flap will safeguard the knives as well as the hands that are holding or carrying the roll. The exterior of this roll has both a small handle for gripping and a large strap to carry the entire bundle in a convenient way.

With this accessory, mobile chefs can easily keep their most utilized tools together when they travel to different events or locations. Helping out at a dinner party but picky about what you prepare with? This roll can resolve that dilemma and others.

16”x16” Chopping Board

This bamboo chopping board has a spacious surface that can fit generous amounts of food. It provides a safe natural antibacterial space that can be used to prepare various dishes and even charcuterie boards. The circular cutting surface measures 16 inches from end to end.

Along the edge of this 16”x16” chopping board, there is a channel that will catch and hold dripping food, juices, and other excess waste that comes from chopping and preparing food. This sturdy and spacious surface allows you to focus on completing the steps necessary to prepare your meal.

It assists with easier cleanup, thorough cuts, and offers a classic aesthetic during the process. There are even stainless steel handles at the bottom that can be used to store the board on a hanging rack for better drying and storage.

The wooden surface will also help to keep your knives’ edges razor sharp for longer. Remember, quality cutlery is best preserved with accessories like these. Being proactive with their maintenance is always a good idea.

Universal Block

Rhineland Cutlery’s Universal Block is a great accessory for starter sets. Although there are knife sets available that include their own storage block, this allows knives of various sizes and even kitchen sears to be stored easily. There are no specific grooves or slots within the core, so the knives can be tucked away quickly. This is a flexible option for beginner chefs who are exploring cutlery at their own pace.

The Universal Block is a great stationary storage option for chefs and family cooks who prefer to keep their knives out of a drawer and available for the easiest access. This tool falls into a category of safety as well as maintenance.

According to Business Insider, “Quality blocks will also protect your knife from becoming dull or scratched. Newer models are also bacteria resistant.” As mentioned earlier, it is best to be proactive and have the practical kitchen accessories on hand to prevent cutlery and cooking crises.

Handheld Sharpener

This tool allows you to safely and easily sharpen your knives in just a few minutes. Rhineland’s Handheld Sharpener is designed to hone the brand’s knives or any other quality knives with strong blades. Higher grades of steel need less sharpening, but it is important for all knife blades to remain as sharp as possible to avoid injury. “Handheld” is an accurate description of its size; this tool can fit into a utility bag with ease.

Unlike other tools used for sharpening, this one is not cumbersome or too hefty. Within the mechanism, there are two ceramic wheels set to the 18-22 degree angle needed to get the perfect grade of sharpness. There is a reservoir under the wheels that holds water and a clear guard is placed atop to keep the blade away from the water. Simply run the blade back and forth five to six times, without applying much pressure. This will get your blade back to razor sharp.
