/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I like my knifes too anon. But I also like my kawaii Zojirushi. I like all of my tools related to food and cooking.

OMG GAIZ!@
MEE TOOO!

favorite boning knife, ever

I really like my all clad skillets. I've even made pizza in them.

>>5349395
Haven't had it very long. Pretty happy with it. Someone here suggested it to me (maybe you!).

>>5349431
My first all clad will arrive tomorrow. My calaphon set has bitten the dust, finally. Kinda stoked to us it. Haven't used all clad since ..some nice restaurant that dumped a bunch of money into their kitchen 12 years ago.

I didn't know DP honesuki were so popular or I would have posted mine.

>>5349300
fuck the knives I'm jealous of that zojirushi

>>5349504
>fuck the knives
Tried that once. Banana split. No bueno.
It sat in my amazon shopping cart for two years before I summoned up the courage to spend $250 on a fucking rice cooker. Was probably drunk when I pulled the trigger.

pic related!

Japanese make good knives, and some crap knives. Henkel outsourced their crap knives to Spain.

Cast iron skillet

tongs are underrated as fuck

I use them for pot roast, steaks, browning meat chunks, braising cow neck, turning things over when they are hot in the oven and more

>>5349501
Yes, you're super kawaiiu for your knife choice

this /ck/ gold

this part...definitely.

>>5349713
That's pretty damn nice, regardless of the open storage area

>>5349713
If that's really you, nice one. Well-stocked, clear spaces, etc.

Yeah, I'd say I'm jelly

it is mine. moved into a new place in january (first time I've lived alone since I was 23). First priority was putting together a serious kitchen.

>>5349769
wheres your stove/oven?

>>5349769
...you moved into a nice place alone

also
>>5349779

unfortunate circumstance with former roomate/co-worker necessitated a move. needed a big place (large dog) and got lucky trolling craigslist for a couple of months. old house newly renovated.

>>5349804

forgot pic. oven is on the other side of the kitchen. kind of a weird setup.

>>5349713
I would love a kitchen with an island.
Get a SS dishwasher to match.
I just hate white appliances. No offense.

>>5349806

i hate 'em too. don't like the stove either but its a rental so it is what it is.

>>5349808
that's weird as fuck

>>5349808
i feel like itd be more efficient to rotate it 90 and lined it up with the pantry doorway about 2 -3 feet from the the pantry doorway and a foot or so from the windowed wall

>>5349828
the table that is

>>5349816
It's very nice, though.

>>5349671
I don't even know how a person could cook efficiently without at least one pair of tongs.
Also underrated: towels. A wet towel can do anything.

Yes, i understand nippon steel was a thing long time ago, but it is time to move on with the times.

i tried a couple of different configurations when I bought the table. I went with that because I host teaching and experimental food nights with my kitchen staff and that affords us the most room while leaving unimpeded access to equipment. and thank you.

>>5349851
NP, i figured id just be you and who uses 2 sides of a table at once you know but that setup is def best for more than 1 person. i dont know the dimensions on it but it looks just like a standard stainless prep table which are pretty large big enough for four stations if you have to.

I do like the SS.
Was thinking about pic related for my dining/production table. It's a small place, I got.
Looks nice, probably the same price.

>>5349713
Definitely the best alternative to an island, and it's mobile!

I can't decide if I'd want the island to have a gas rand and get a double oven or Stuff an oven under the counter top.

My bread machine is pretty neat, put water yeast and flour in it at night and wake up the next morning with fresh bread.

I have this attitude towards my rice cooker.

>it is time to move on with the times.

What, did Germany get their act together? Can you provide an example? All I see is German brands cranking out imitation Japanese blades complete with "oriental" typeface in a desperate move to remain relevant.

It's basically like how in the 80s Detroit started selling miniature shitboxes that shook themselves apart when you drove over 30 mph because they couldn't grasp the concept of a well engineered car that didn't weigh 8 tons and handle like a river barge.

Good luck, Germany.

Wustof and Henkles have been putting out quality knives for some time now. Japanese makes quality products too, but I prefer western style knives, and the best of those come from Germany in my opinion. Either way you go, you generally get what you pay for, though.

>>5351756
Also, Detroit holding onto the carburetor with an iron lung into the late 80s would have made for a much better analogy.

>muh koo why eee knives
>muh German mega magic alloy steel

French carbon steel master race here, keep jerking off over your Rockwell hardness numbers
