How to Cut Sweet Potato Wedges: The Smart Way with the Right Knife
Sweet potato wedges. Simple, hearty, crowd-pleasing—and surprisingly tricky to cut. Anyone who’s wrestled with these vibrant, tough tubers knows it’s not just about muscle—it’s about the right tool and technique.
That’s where the Furi Cook’s Knife 20cm (8in) steps in.
This isn’t your average kitchen knife. It’s a high-performance blade engineered for power, balance and clean cuts—no slipping, no hacking, no frustration. So, whether you’re cooking for the week ahead or plating up for guests, here’s how to get sweet potato wedges just right—smart, even, and effortless.
Step-by-Step: Slicing Sweet Potatoes with Confidence
1. Choose a Stable Surface and a Solid Knife
The Furi Cook’s Knife 20cm is built for these exact moments—where strength meets control. Its wide blade, sharp edge, and ergonomic wedge-shaped handle let you power through tough-skinned veg without the usual wrist strain or risk.
2. Prep the Potato
Wash your sweet potatoes thoroughly but skip the peeling if you're after rustic, crisp-edged wedges.
3. Quarter Before You Wedge
💡 Pro Tip: Cut into quarters and then divide for even-sized wedges.
Start by slicing the potato lengthwise in half, then again into quarters. Lay each quarter flat, then slice each into 2–3 wedges depending on thickness. You’ll get beautifully even pieces that roast uniformly crispy on the outside, tender in the centre.
4. Keep Your Cuts Confident
With sweet potatoes, hesitating means trouble. You need a knife that’s sharp and responsive—like the Furi Cook’s Knife. Its Japanese stainless-steel blade holds its edge longer, and the angled handle keeps your fingers in a strong, natural position for safety and speed.
Why Knife Choice Matters
People are searching for answers like:
• What knife is best for cutting sweet potato?
• How do I cut wedges evenly?
• Why is sweet potato so hard to cut?
Here’s the truth: sweet potatoes are dense and fibrous, so using a small, dull, or flexible knife just won’t cut it—literally.
The Furi Cook’s Knife is forged for this kind of work. It’s bold in build, slick in performance, and made for cooks who want to get the job done efficiently—whether it’s prepping weeknight meals or nailing your roast game.
Wedges Done Right. Every Time.
