I got a flyer today from Cookware & More (w w w .cookwarenmore . com ) for a sale that includes mostly AllClad but also a few other things. They sell seconds, and in my experience the "flaws" are very minor cosmetic problems. Very good prices, most items are 50-60% of retail. They have some sets, too. Hard to beat if you are looking for AllClad. If I could...

I'm looking for something that can roughly do the job of a commercial or laboratory bain marie -- maintain food at a fairly precise set temperature in the range from room temperature to boiling. Most slow cookers I've seen offer choices like high/low/warm. The ones that bill themselves as "programmable" are mostly talking about a programmable timer, so...

Darn! I sent this post to rfc by mistake. Didn't mean to crosspost. I've complained so much about the Allure III not being adequate, but we are still using it and I am doing most of my cooking on the leftside of the stove where the vent fan is located in order for the steam to best go up into. The larger elements are located on the rightside and do not...

I just bought a Panasonic NN-SD696S, 1.2CU inverter microwave oven from COSTCO. When I got home I started reading about microwave ovens. Microwave\convection seems to be a nice feature but I wonder if it's worth returning the NN-SD696 for a microwave\convection is worth the effort? Anybody out there using a microwave\convection oven? If so, do you...

Has anyone ordered from * w w w .cutleryandmore . com / and found them to be reliable in most all aspects we rely on when we order online. I've never seen this site previously. I generally order from Amazon and Fantes. But it looks terrific. I want to order the 12" Emerilware skillet/frypan (made by All-Clad). I've read most of the Emerilware vs. All-Clad...

I am Jonesing for a Kitchenaid Professional 600 mixer, and I've been looking at ebay listings for one. The Kitchenaid company sells refurbished units there, and they make a disclaimer that the Professional 600 is not the Pro 6 that comes with free shippping. So, this begs the question, what is the difference between a Professional 600 and a Pro 6? I have...

Hi - I am setting up a new kitchen and would like input on dual fuel range (prefer slide in) and vent. Would prefer to stay at about $2500 for both - but can go to $3000. And, I will be adding a microwave above the range (vent setup must consider this). I do grill some - and wondered about some of the ranges that have grill setup. I am not someone...

In my kitchen knife collection I use about 15 knives often (at least once a month usage rates "common", once a week rates "often", "specialty" knives) might only be used 2-4 times a year). Three of these knives have serrated edges. One is a long, skinny-bladed bread knife that is ultra-stiff. It has the tiny little points/teeth with scalloped spaces between...

I have been collecting professional kitchen knives for over 20 years. I've probably purchased 250 various kitchen knives and cleavers in the last 30 years. I rarely buy new knives although I did break down to buy a Shun paring knife and long sashimi deba and a Henkel Santoku, and a variety of high, mid and low end knives in Japan. On our ranch we sometimes...

In discussions at Ambrosi Brothers Restaurant Supply (The Wustof, Henkel, Kershaw/Kai Shun, Victornox, Dexter professional food supply retailer) we all agree that poly cutting boards are less harmful to a knife's edge than wood. Does anyone make a large scale poly storage block? In addition to treating the knives better, a poly block would be easier to clean...

does anyone here have any experience with longevity of the Fagor SILICONE GASKET for pressure cookers, as compared to the PLAIN RUBBER GASKET? we now need our third gasket for our Fagor pressure cooker. seems like Fagor has a bad design of their pressure cooker or a bad design/selection of rubber material for their gasket. we have tried all of the tricks...

Sorry for the corny Scooby-Doo sounding subject title. ;) I am going to be making my first roux. I've familiarized myself with the method (simple really) except which whisk to use. My current whisk is a cheap-o with only about 6 wires. I'm eyeing a "piano" whisk for the task for the great number of wires. Will this whisk work well in a large Dutch...
