Here’s one of the best Texas Cookin’ Tips you’ll ever get: Texas Pepper Jelly carries Messermeister cutlery!

If you’re any kind of cook at all, you’re VERY particular about your knives. Kitchen knives need to be razor sharp, heat-proof, easy to sharpen, and durable. ALL of these qualities, not just a few. ALL.

It’s easy to find kitchen knives at any store. The most expensive knives aren’t necessarily the best knives, either.

Messermeister cutlery isn’t nearly as expensive as many excellent knife company’s knives, but the quality of a Messermeister knife is superior to all others. A Messermeister knife, or any other piece of their cutlery, will last a lifetime, and after that, it will last for your son or daughter’s lifetime. And so on, because a Messermeister knife is built to last for generations.

Texas Pepper Jelly carries Messermeister cutlery, and we back these knives with our usual guarantee: if you don’t like it for whatever reason, we’ll refund your money. In my opinion – and I’m extremely picky about my kitchen knives – my Messermeister knives are the BEST! I have several Messermeister kitchen knifes, and they’re my favorite ones.

The curved knife in the picture is the Messermeister Park Plaza 6-inch curved semi-flexible kitchen knife, and it’s perfect for paring, peeling, slicing, and pretty much everything you’d need a smallish, razor-sharp knife for, in your kitchen. I like the curved knives best, and the Messermeister Park Plaza curved knife is awesome!

Texas Pepper Jelly is awesome on sandwiches and toast, but sandwiches and toast require bread.  My family loves homemade bread, so I learned to make it.

I don’t use a bread machine, no, no, no.  I make genuine homemade bread.  I figure, if my fingernails aren’t spotlessly clean after I’m finished kneading that dough by hand, I’m not really finished kneading. 

Once you remove your bread from the oven, however, it has to be sliced before you can really start slathering the pepper jelly on it.  I’ve experimented with a lot of knives in my day – I’m kind of oldish so I’ve had a lot of days – and the knife I like best is the Messermeister 10-inch Kullenschliff slicer.

It’s a beautiful knife, all-round. Sharp as a razor. Easy to handle, too.

With some knives, cutting homemade bread is a big deal, and the slices are seldom smooth. The Messermeister Kullenschliff slicer, however, will give you a lovely clean slice every single time.

Remember, too, bread-bakers, that you really must let your bread cool completely before you try to slice it.

And now that your bread is sliced – thanks to your awesome Messermeister Kullenschliff slicer – you can start spreading that mouth-watering delicious Texas Pepper Jelly on it.

Mmmm, pepper jelly.

P.S.  It’s June: the wedding month.  Why not give the newlyweds some Messermeister cutlery?  It lasts practically forever, and everyone needs good kitchen knives.
