How To Eat With Chopsticks Without Losing An Eye

I promise you that you too can eat using chopsticks, no matter how hopelessly un-Asian you think you are, no matter how klutzy you are. You probably won’t lose an eye or any extremities during the course of this procedure, but if you want to be safe, you might want to go put on that pair of safety goggles in the garage.

Step 1: Take your first chopstick and hold it like you were going to write your name with it. The chopstick should wind up in your thumb and there should be approximately an inch of choptick out in front of your fingers. The part that would be the writing end.

Step 2: Introduce your other hand and push the chopstick out another inch, so there are two inches that would be the writing end. Next, really get the chopstick nestled in your thumb. Brace the chopstick with your middle finger and maintain a firm grip. Really push against it. Think of this chopstick as being completely stuck like this forever and ever. Okay, let’s not think of the difficultly that you could have going to the bathroom, we’re all trying to eat here. It’s hypothetical anyways! You should be able to move the top of your thumb and your entire index finger freely.

Step 3: This probably feels weird, so take a moment. Scratch that itch on your nose. Can you do it with your chopstick hand? No, not using the chopstick, use your finger. You should be able to wiggle your thumb and index finger while holding onto your very firmly stuck chopstick.

Step 4: Introduce your other hand again and slide that other chopstick right on in. The second chopstick goes between your thumb and index finger. Hold the chopsticks so that they are parallel and have a decent sized gap between them.

Step 5: Now touch the tips of the chopsticks together. Remember, the first chopstick should never move! Just practice touching the tips together.

Now you can start to use chopsticks. You can only pick up food with the chopsticks and they act as a sort of pivot. The moment you use the chopsticks to take something from then to another, they move together.

In order to pick up food only move the chopsticks; you will prop your chopstick above the plate or bowl. The moment you press down on the plate or bowl, the chopstick will move to cover the food. At the same time you can also pick up food with the chopsticks. But before you can get use to using the chopsticks you have to make sure that you have mastered using the regular chopsticks first.

Chopsticks are really useful in the kitchen. We all know that chopsticks are the most basic tool in the kitchen. It is really very hard to use a chopstick out of the box. This is because the upper and lower chopsticks are not interchangeable. You will be very frustrated if you try to do this on your normal chopsticks. The upper chopstick goes with the top of the chopsticks and the lower chopstick goes with the bottom of the chopsticks.

This may seem elementary but you would be surprised at how many people don’t know this. They pick up food with the wrong chopsticks and find it hard to even get them to work together. This can be very frustrating so why not take the time to learn how to use the chopsticks before you master the way to use them.

Learning how to use chopsticks is not difficult. The way to learn how to use chopsticks is to think about how it would be done if chopsticks were cut in half. You will see that the first chopstick is positioned on the right side of the bowl. The second chopstick is on the left side of the bowl. The third chopstick is at the center. All chopsticks must be in this position when the lid is on the jar.

Now you can start to experiment. Try picking up pieces of food with the chopsticks. This is something you might find fun.

If you think that the only way you can eat is with the chopsticks, you are way wrong. You can use pretty much every part of your body to eat with chopsticks.

The truth is that there are many different ways to eat using chopsticks. You don’t have to stick to the basic steps. You don’t have to know how to use the basic techniques. You don’t even have to practice the techniques to eat with chopsticks. You can just keep trying new things and exercising until you perfect the techniques.

Of course, there is no single correct way to eat using chopsticks. Your way will depend on how everyone else using the chopsticks and your cultural background.
