-- Please discuss your kitchen hardware/tools/cooking utensils etc...
Hi Guys.

So in this thread I'd be interested in the following:

- newer tools that you use that are not as common

- common utensils that you have in the kitchen that are staples for your cooking.

- Old family treasure passed down to you - such as a special knife or something useful like that.

- A few more items you may consider discussing - Cutting-boards, knives (again), presses, spatula's, maybe pancake turners/spatula's.

- I'm okay with even going as far as spices in your spice-rack.



Lately I don't have a bunch to brag about - I did recently drop about $350 at Burlington Coat Factory (of all places) on cookware (I had nothing decent since the divorce) - they had a lot of unique things, one of my sautee skillets is ceramics and has the best handle for flipping pasta's (or whatever) - another thing I had discovered there was a really nice bacon press. I will get the brand-name a little later on this weekend.

I will add photo's over the weekend, hopefully.


I wanted the thread to drop tonight though, so please share anything that's cool, special or especially 'useful' for your throwing down in the kitchen.


Thanks guys.

Look forward to hearing about and/or seeing your gear.

I've been thinking about picking up a nickel plated cast iron skillet for a couple of years now.

Three Crabs
I will look for those. Below is an assortment I got at the viet market. they were 1.19 each good to try out.


This one is more expensive about 7.50 a bottle. Very versatile.

We get our fish sauce exclusively at Asian markets and I won't buy any that has added sugar. It should just be fermented fish (usually anchovies) and salt. It's usually about 2 bucks for a big bottle.

Oil, cooking spray, bacon grease, you name it, I tried it, everything but flaxseed. Never got around to picking some up.

Oh, and that's a nasty process, I did it in my garage with power sanding and hand sanding. The coating got everywhere. I had to clay bar my truck to get that stuff off.

As for the pan, I thought I would never get that thing seasoned again. I was going to contact the manufacture to see if they would re-season it and send it back to me. Finally said heck with it and if food stuck I would scrap it off with the spatula and wipe it out, after over a year and a half it's starting to work pretty well.

Raw iron, a few rounds of flaxseed would have been amazing.

Here is my grill, converted a burnt out gas grill to charcoal. Welded a flower pot stand to an iron plate, bolted the grill to it and buried it in the ground. The charcoal pan is from the back rest of an old 70's lounge chair with handles welded to it. I like to tinker.

I wish I had the skills/tools to do that. I'm happy with most of my CI anyway, but I've got a couple pieces that I've put a ton of work into to get in their current condition. Would have been nice to sand away some of those rough edges and start out with a better pan.

I don't have any idea about what the nutritionists say, I just grind my own (no, I don't eat them whole). Whole foods keep longer and taste fresher. So the volatile oils in the flaxseed, which give it its flavor, stay around longer in whole seeds. The pre-ground stuff begins to lose it's flavor as soon as it's ground. Same with whole vs. pre-ground spices.

So if you use the ground stuff, try switching to whole and grind them yourself in a good blender or in a little coffee/spice grinder.
