Showing off Knives ... and Stoneware

[Intrepid_Chef]

I have a show on Nov. 2 as part of a switch with a jewelry consultant. The host loves knives, so I was thinking of doing something that showed off both my pieces of forged cutlery.

Also wanted to show off the stoneware too.

I was thinking of a braid and Mom's Apple Crisp in the DCB, but I am not sure that would show off enough knives.

Ideas?

How do you handle preparing the apples? If you use the Santoku knife for cutting the apple, that could be nice. A paring knife to cut off the skins, only if you feel comfortable, so you don't cut yourself. Unless you prefer using the APCS or something else. Bread knife for cutting the braid?

I guess that depends on which knives you have...

I make the apple crisp a lot & I use the apple wedger & then for the little part that didn't cut good on the wedge I use the forged paring knife.

I don't have a paring knife (except for the quickcut kind) and I have an APCS.I would cut the slices in half, though.I only have the santoku and utility knife ... I'm thinking more of a braid or other dish that would show the knives off. Would chicken broccoli or turkey cranberry work, or something else?

the Chicken Fajitas in the DCB shows off the knives and the stone. Love this recipe!
