KitchenAid Mezzaluna - Do the Half Moon Kitchen Chop

A Mezzaluna is a chopping instrument consisting of a single or double curved blade with a handle on each end. They are often used for chopping herbs. Mezzaluna is the Italian name - meaning Half Moon after the rough shape of the blade. We use one all the time for garlic and other herbs like rosemary. This one has a really nice holster it fits into, and should help avoid cutting yourself when you pick it up from the drawer in your kitchen. The end of it also looks designed to scrape the cut up herbs into a bowl or dish for cooking.
