Parlor tricks

Tricks I practice regularly

• One way to crack an egg is by hitting two eggs together.   [1]   [1-archive]   [2]   [3]   [4]
• Cracking an egg with one hand.   [1]   [2]
• Flipping the contents of a skillet.   [2]   [3]
• Separate egg yolks and whites by letting the whites slide between your fingers. [1] [2] (This is easier when combined with the "crack with one hand" trick)

Other tricks

• There's a cook who juggles an onion against the side of her chef's knife, before letting it fall and get stuck on its sharp edge. (maybe find this video?)
• Of course, teppanyaki chefs are famous for their tricks.
  • With Benihana being the most well-known.

Common teppanyaki tricks

• Juggling a chef knife [1] [2] [3] [3] [5] [6] [6] [7] (It can look pretty amazing when a woman does it.)
• Cracking an egg against the edge of the knife. [1]
