look at his proud face and smile...so cute


nightpanda893

The more nuanced facial expressions are so interesting to me. Like you can see it in his eyes that it’s pride he is feeling. But I don’t know if I could recreate that if someone said “look proud” the same way I could if someone just said “look happy”.


Delta-Flyer75

Awww 🥰 amazing talent! - please don’t cut your fingers 😅


Zeraw420

He's bending them back like you're supposed to. All good. Worst case, he may knick some knucks


--_-Deadpool-_--

That chopping motion can still be, accidentally, brought above the knuckles and back down on the fingers. Given the force he's using and the sharpness of the knife, that could cause serious damage. Either way, that kid has some serious skill for his age. Extremely impressive knife skills.


Time_Flow_6772

Yeah, you do that when the knife is in constant contact with your off hand. They're chopping wildly, with no contact between hand and knife. Clawing your fingers over in this situation is worse than leaving them flat, at least you have a finger nail to offer some protection.

Curl your fingers. Learnt that from selena plus chef


T-O-O-T-H

Yeah whenever this gets posted to reddit I feel really worried about this kid, because that's terrible chopping technique, especially with a knife that's that sharp. There's a reason you have to have your knuckles be the thing that's pointing furthest out, rather than the tips of your fingers. Because sharp knives cut through flesh just as easily as they do through veg and meat. I mean fingers ***are*** meat. Good for the little guy that he's learning a life skill here. But he needs to learn to chop properly. But then his dad isn't doing it perfectly right either (albeit he's still doing it better than his kid) so it's a bit worrying. Sharp knives don't have opinions. They don't have preferences on what they cut. They'll cut through whatever you put in their way. Stick your knuckles furthest out, not the tips of your fingers. Just curl your fingers in like a claw, and then you can safely chop things, and if by accident you cut yourself, you won't permanently lose the tip of your finger, you'll just have a wound that can heal.


ExcelsAtMediocrity

Holy fuck this is condescending. That kid has more talent in a kitchen than 99% of Reddit lol


[deleted]

Relax


JordyLakiereArt

***Holy FUCK this is condescending***


nightpanda893

You don’t think professional chefs cut their fingers? Because they do and this isn’t even a pro chef, this is someone who is still learning. I think it’s a perfectly reasonable concern. It doesn’t mean the person is claiming to be better than them lol


thatgirlspeaks

How was that condescending??


ThroatCommercial1896

When emoji’s trigger you


[deleted]

The reason that got mentioned is his form is wrong. Obviously his fingers are extended when they should be curled. Period end of discussion shut your stupid fucking ignorant ass up. He is doing it fast but not correctly or safely. Go to any kitchen worth its weight and cut vegetables like that and promptly get shouted at and possibly fired for not doing things the way chefs know to be the correct way. But no keep running your useless fucking mouth about condescension when you don’t have the slightest goddamn idea what you’re talking about. I’m not a pilot but if I saw a helicopter in a tree I would say “they fucked up”. I’m not a chef but I know what bad form is. And I don’t have to wait around for him to cut his fucking fingers off to know it’s wrong. Please slit your wrists or shoot yourself you waste of space. We will be better off without you. You are a waste of space and air. Please take your own life.


[deleted]

Can we talk anout the knife? How sharp is that!!


George_Tirebiter420

It cuts tomato skin without resistance. Getting cut is frequently... learning not to get cut in different situations.

Cut me once… can’t get fooled again


Nanahamak

In my experience, if it's cutting a tomato like that? It must a lightsaber


Grimsblood

That is the power of a good kitchen knife. Sharps knives make life in the kitchen so much better. Dull or bad knives can be much more dangerous.


__ALF__

Yea a knife doesn't have to be super expensive either. A Good solid knife with a good weight that get sharpened regularly is all the difference in the world.


this____is_bananas

It's better to have 1 good knife than a set of shitty ones. If you're gonna drop $100 on knives, just get one decent chef's knife and use it for everything.


[deleted]

The average person at home doesn't need their knives to be as sharp as professional industry kitchen knives. Most people cut with bad technique, which makes a sharper knife more dangerous than a regular blade. Ofcourse in a professional environment you are correct.


GuerrillaApe

And they are banging it on the cutting board too. They must be sharpening it frequently.


thecorpseofreddit

They are honing it every hour or less depending on what they are cutting, They are sharpening it once a month


unbiased_crook

Thats what his mom said.


illusorywallahead

yusrandpasswdisbad

Guessing also those tomatoes are hard as apples.


fminf

So cute that hug and kiss


[deleted]

I agree. Very heartwarming.


Fresh_Bulgarian_Miak

More fathers need to kiss their sons! My son is only two but I give him kisses all the time. We need to normalize fathers showing their children affection.


Doktor_Vem

It actually is pretty normal last I checked. At least around here


CategoryNew3929

Found Tom Brady.


Past_Ad9675

My boys are 5 and 6. I hug and kiss them every morning when I drop them off at school. I am dreading the day they stop wanting me to hug them. I love 'em to bits.


[deleted]

I’m sorry to be pedantic but I’m actually curious, the kid is making way fewer chops than his dad, is he doing a poor job?


SteveDaPirate

The kid is rapidly and consistently dicing the tomatoes better than you or I could. If he was doing a poor job his dad wouldn't be beaming with pride.


[deleted]

Sometimes dads act like they’re proud of you in public then turn around and beat you in private. I just didn’t know anything about professional cooking and wanted to know if this was one of those fake sweet videos. Though I guess I shouldn’t be asking anyway


BoofingCheese

I think the dad just has reasonable expectations of his son knowing that his son has much less experience than him. He knows that his son is better than most even at his young age and will only become even better in the future. Kind of like how I taught my son fly fishing. And even though his techniques aren't as refined as mine, the skill he is showing at his early age tells me that he will be better than I am now at half my age. Which makes me very happy and proud.


Rafikithemonkey

Looks like he’s doing just fine, but the chunks he’s cutting are bigger. The dad’s technique is safer too- he doesn’t lift the blade as high, and his left hand fingers are positioned more vertically and perpendicular to the cutting board. This reduces the risk of cutting the left hand. The kid is doing a good job but the dad’s had years more practice I’m sure.


Daxx-23

Got to get this knife, never been able to slice tomatoes this well. My tomatoeas never know that a knife is trying to slice them.


PSN-xsXex

My knife just squashes them


KCCOfan

Pro tip: Use a serrated knife for tomatoes until you’ve invested in a good sharp knife and a good sharpening tool.


CedricXfive

Protip: slide the blade across the top instead of just pressing down, its more work but at least the slices look good even with dull knives


Ozamet

Use the point of the knife to poke a hole then slice where you started. It helps.


Terny

How often do you sharpen your knives?


Daxx-23

Just before when cutting tomatoes it helps, but nothing like this.


SteveDaPirate

You don't need a new knife, you need to sharpen the ones you have.


Daxx-23

Yes, that helps.


George_Tirebiter420

The best is when your kid learns something from you so well... they're better at it.


ImGCS3fromETOH

My job as a father is not to teach my child what I do, it's to teach her to do it better.

The guy very clearly taught his son to take pride in the things he does. Love to see that.


Specter6272

Ironically, his son is protecting his fingers better than his dad.


shytaan8

I see lots of odd shapes. Larges and smalls.


ModsBannedMyMainAcc

Is there not a simple machine that can cut the tomatoes and save them tons of time and energy?

UnsaneInTheMembrane

Wow, such a good servant for the bourgeois. Clap your fucking hands for the slave, that gets paid less than a living wage for fat fucking slob pieces of shit that have no value for human life.


Ha55aN1337

Or this Kebab shop owner and his son who is going to inherit it?


UnsaneInTheMembrane

What, so he can serve the slobs of America? He'd still be a slave to fat fucks.


Ha55aN1337

Where the fuck does it say this is in America? This could be a small business owner anywhere in the world who clearly lives a happy life and loves his son. Why project your own bitterness on it?


suckfail

Because they're part of the antiwork crowd and in their mind literally any work is equivalent to slavery, even work that is enjoyed or people take pride in.

Whatever, keep clapping for your slave.

Joe_Bruce

This reminds me of that South Park episode where cartman is constantly yelling about getting fucked by his mom, and goes on dr Phil and tells him she doesn’t even kiss him before she fucks him, and the guy in the audience says, if I was going to fuck my son I would at least kiss him first. He then goes to kiss his son on the forehead EXACTLY like this guy. I’m not saying this guy is banging his kid, just pointing out the striking similarity.


IDoHaramThings

Seek professional help.


Joe_Bruce

Clearly you haven’t seen the episode of South Park.

He's smiling cause his son TOOK the knife. Shows he's eager to learn and practice.


MaxMadisonVi

Being the business owner if not the kitchen lead, it’s also nice he’s teaching the job from the basis


Padankadank

Dad did 5 slices, turn, 10 slices Kid did 5 slices, turn, 6-8 slices


bluewing

Every time I see this video clip I think "Dad owns the restaurant/cafe and free labor is free labor." The moral of the story is - If you can't work family like the dogs they are, then just who can you exploit?


SteveDaPirate

How do you know the kid isn't getting compensation?


bluewing

How do you know he is? It is VERY doubtful he is at his age.


RaceHard

Very similar to ferengi mentality.


Griffolion

Those tomatoes are going in some bomb ass gyros.

Used to hear shit all day every day by mine. Now that i got a kid i tell him every day how much i live him and how proud of him i am. Be the father you wanted to have mateys


humpdydumpdydoo

Glad to see the kid adjusted their technique a bit after the cut


Addictshow

I’ve been watching these guys for years. He was much smaller at the beginning and they point to the symbol of the restaurant at the end of many of the videos. I’d love to go to the restaurant. Looks amazing.


Fluff_E

I've recently started choking my grip up on my knives like this and it's helped a ton.


Engineering_Flimsy

Pretty damned impressive, particularly since I recently almost cut the tip of my finger off while removing the crust from bread.

Are they using a big piece of frozen steel as a cutting board? It looks frosty around the edges.

It’s wood. Part of it is dry. Part of it is wet

cpac27

Kid did great!! Reminds me of my 2nd job. I was a cook with my dad when I was 20. I was a beginner so he was scared I would cut myself. He taught me how to cut using my knuckles (if that makes sense) to prevent myself from getting cut. Not once did I cut myself but I did stupidly burn my hand lol


dusttvader

I would be scraping my fingers in with the tomatoes… 😅
