Kitchen little things (2)

[Marpl / Marina]

All these ancient signs appeared in ancient times, when the head of the family is a man, at the table the head is a man, respectively, the most valuable, bread, is cut by a man.
Do not leave the knife on the table, eat from the knife, leave the knife on the edge - these are basic safety measures so as not to cut yourself.
Likewise, to sit in front of the path - to calm down, concentrate, remember if you forgot anything, tune in before the road, read a prayer. Etc.
Over time, this developed into indispensable rituals, and if you break them, then there must be something bad.

And then in stores now they sell bars of soap such that you only attach it to a magnet,

Marpl / Marina, ooo, and where did you buy this miracle-wonderful? I've been looking for it for a long time.

Has anyone tried using a silicone bag to knead sourdough bread dough?

I tried this dough bag, but I didn't like it, maybe the handles are crooked. But for minced meat, that's it.

I ordered it. I'll try it on Saturday. Now I have the whole process a continuous experiment. Learning. And when I learn something, then, like a careless student, I hope for magic helpers)))

Tatyana, I bought such a soap dish on the Real Korea website, there are many interesting things. Free delivery from 5t. R. There are good graters for Korean carrots.

I tried a loop knife for cleaning the pumpkin core - it turns out very cool! Much more convenient and faster than scraping with a spoon or knife!

[Yuliya K]

Yuliya K, YuliaAnd I have not yet managed to buy one. I also really wanted to. Where did you get it?

[Marina]

Marina,
And tell me about the graters for Korean carrots in Real Korea.
There are three types of them. Two types without a holder, one of them with an adjusting screw (it seems to me not very reliable).
The third view with a vegetable holder.
What would you recommend?

I used white and pink graters, but mostly I only use white. A vegetable holder is also needed so as not to injure your hands.

I used white and pink graters, but mostly I only use white.

Forgot to ask: straw sizes (if you can tell). Thinner than Berner?

The straws are smoother, because in the grater the metal parts are installed at an angle, but not in Berner. The thickness is adjustable in pink.

Where did you get it?

I ordered in Good's

I also bought the Fissman 8672 Core Remover and the Fissman 7980 Silicone Teapot Nozzle

I want such a knife. watch from 2:10. How it cleans the core perfectly effortlessly. hachuuuu!

Well, it's more likely for industrial volumes. My husband cuts three such pumpkins into one batch of candied fruits with an ordinary knife, this is into an old copper basin. Then while the release of water, impregnation with syrup, drying. Two such games are released about a week. All relatives stopped buying candy.

I want such a knife

We peel pumpkins and melons from the core with a tablespoon ...

[OgneLo]

for one batch

And I would cook a pumpkin more often. The soup is gorgeous, the caviar is excellent both in the form of a cube and punched with a blender. And the benefits of this vegetable are generally a lot. Okay, I’ll go and catch a drop of this until we’ve taken it apart.

OgneLo, Marina ま り な, Yuliya K, Yulchik, thank you very much!

I want such a knife

On Amazon, only such.

this is miraculous

Gee! In the old Soviet times, there was such a miracle in so many houses! Even at our school.

This set is for decoration. And in the video is a homemade device. We can do this ourselves, we only need a strip of metal and a handle.The handle can be removed from any device for the garden (there are plenty of them in Fix - hoes, scoops ...) and stick the strip bent in half into the handle.

[francevna]

francevna, I have a similar saucepan, only hot spots are not siliconized. She is my favorite.

This set is for decoration. And in the video is a homemade device.

I know that for decoration and it is clear that the instrument in the video is homemade. But why not put a photo from Amazon, and suddenly someone really needs just such a set.

[francevna]

francevna, Alla, is there a saucepan for induction? And then in one of the reviews for a set from this brand they write that they did not go to induction, although induction is indicated in the characteristics

I ordered in Good's

And I took it there! The knife itself is small, but cleans very quickly!

We peel pumpkins and melons from the core with a tablespoon ...

Yeah, before that I also cleaned with a spoon, but this knife is sharper than a spoon, it goes like clockwork, it comes out many times faster!

[Yulia]

YuliaThanks for the tip on the knife !! Only today I was cleaning the pumpkin, picking it with nails, a spoon, and a knife!
every time with her problems, clean the inside. Especially when I bake small pumpkins with filling: nyamo :. And now you can clean it up inside.
You must definitely buy!))

The ice cream spoon is still handy.

[francevna]

francevna, Alla, is there a saucepan for induction? And then in one of the reviews for a set from this brand they write that they did not go to induction, although induction is indicated in the characteristics

I have a gas stove. The magnet sticks strongly, I barely held it in my hands.
My son has pans of this company, only metal handles are suitable for induction.

The ice cream spoon is still handy

I just adjusted the ice cream spoon, it is thinner and sharper edges than the dining room.

The ice cream spoon is still handy.

And I have ordinary spoons made in China for cleaning pumpkins and zucchini)) For a long time there were three tablespoons and three teaspoons, I don't even know where they came from. It is impossible to eat from them, the edges are thin and sharp. But to clean something - just right. Small now, pears and apples were peeled for marshmallow, it's good to cut out the middle)))

Gee! In the old Soviet times, there was such a miracle in so many houses! Even at our school

So I remember them from there, but I have not met them in recent history, so I was very surprised. And on the Internet there were a lot of offers.

[Tima Series Station wagon]

I was looking for a bucket made of stainless steel, I bought it, and he has corners for draining on both sides. The lid is large, and there are holes of different diameters on the side wall on both sides, it is convenient to drain, you do not need to open the lid. Moreover, the handles are silicone green.

I have 3 such pots with a spout from the Taller firm, the inner side is rough matte, so it is washed worse than the glossy one (I heard the same thing on YouTube about the Gourmet saucepan), the walls are thin, the shape is straight and another series of Taller is also silicone handles, the shape of the pot is a barrel, but without a spout the inner side is glossy, especially for milk. The silicone handles are burned especially on small pots. The spout helps to conveniently drain and you can leave the ladle in the ladle in an upright position when I use the lid from another saucepan so that it closes tightly. I do not like this pot from Taller because it has matte walls inside and a straight shape, because when the milk is reheated in two saucepans of the same volume, it burns to the walls in a straight line, but not in the keg. I was looking for such a saucepan with a spout so that the bottom was narrowed and the inner surface was glossy
Pots Tima Series Station wagon the bottom is 8 mm, while the Taller has 6 mm. Compared specially the prices for Tim are cheaper here
🔗
There are 5 pots and 1 ladle in the series

They also have a promotion on Tim Profi's pots

🔗
Conveniently stackable suitable for all types of slabs
Even the Gourmet does not have such a bottom thickness, which is so interesting for a change with a thick bottom of 14 mm Tima Fashion, you can fry in them and bake in the oven, by the way, you can also bake a station wagon in the series.
🔗

And I have not yet managed to buy one. I also really wanted to. Where did you get it?

I bought such a knife and much more with the help of Helen with a good discount in the purchase of Alligators
My relatives have not yet given the parcel to me, but I'm sure the quality is very good, because I previously bought an awesome fish scaler and Triangle ladles. I chose here
🔗
And then she sent a link to the desired product Helen.

I use the lid from another saucepan so that it closes tightly

you can simply turn the lid 90 ° so that it covers the spouts with a solid part of the rim.

Since 2004, when, for objective reasons, I had to buy a lot again, a set of pots with a good wall thickness made of stainless steel from the Chinese brand König, with such a slightly expanded flange:

it is very convenient to drain from them - nothing leaks and does not add. I am very pleased with my saucepans.

you can simply turn the lid 90 ° so that it covers the spouts with a solid part of the rim.

These lids take longer to wash, so it's more convenient for me to take from another pan, for example, for borscht (4 liter) or milk (4 liter) homemade, which we boil and leave a ladle there, or for milk you can simply drain it with a spout, but for compote (6 liter) is more convenient with a native lid. Of course, with a dishwasher, I think it's even easier with these lids, but the main thing in these pots is the spout, the gloss inside and the narrowed thick bottom, that is, they are universal for milk, and for borsch with a ladle and for boiling pasta, and for baking, and extinguishing. And now they have a normal discount.

Tima Fashion, which is so interesting for variety with a thick bottom 14 mm, even the Gourmet does not have such a bottom thickness

Katyusha, where did you find this information about the bottom thickness? I was interested in the TIMA saucepan, I began to look for a description, the TIMA saucepans have a wall thickness of 0.6 mm, a bottom thickness of 4.5 mm. And I almost ordered it, bummer.

Katyusha, where did you find this information about the bottom thickness?

On this site, in the second picture, the dimensions of the saucepan, the thickness of the bottom and walls
🔗
And this one has the same saucepans, but cheaper
🔗
It seems to me that even visually, according to the picture, the bottom of the Tima Fashion series is thicker, and if we compare the price for one volume of pots of the two Universal and Fashion series, then the price difference is normal, since a thicker bottom means more steel and, accordingly, more expensive. Well, of course, I did not hold them in my hands, but I think that the measurements in the ECO pan were made manually, because they have exact dimensions for almost every saucepan and video reviews of which they themselves shoot, including Tim, I think that it is not unfounded.

Alas, even according to the link you gave, the bottom thickness is declared to be only 8 cm !!!
I'm afraid you are confusing the height of the bottom pad with the thickness of the bottom. This overlay can be 30 mm, and in general it can reach the handles, but the thickness will be completely different!
The thickness of the encapsulated bottom over 6-8 mm has no practical meaning. It is quite enough for its uniform heating!
A thicker bottom will only lead to an increase in heating time and an increase in thermal inertia and unnecessary energy consumption.

Alas, even according to the link you gave, the bottom thickness is declared to be only 8 cm !!!

And here it is indicated 14 mm already
🔗
In pans with a thick bottom, food burns less.

Thick-bottomed pans burn less food

Well, if you find a couple of other sellers' sites, the thickness will generally indicate 50 mm! They do not mind, especially since they are not responsible for it, and you will be pleased!
Tim's website does not indicate the thickness at all - though I did not search carefully!
But already the discrepancy in the thickness of different sellers should suggest that the sellers are not competent!
If the bottom is 100 mm thick, I'm afraid it's not that it won't burn, the food won't heat up at all!

[Igor]

Igor, I have some
The third unidentified unnamed bucket swelled a little in one place .. I didn't experiment with it anymore, I bought well-known brands. What could it be ?? Even nothing comes to mind, maybe Igor, tell me ??

[Olya]

Olya,
Her! I'm not that special, I'm a simple cookware user with a little bit of common sense and logic.
And you can have anything you like, up to the fact that between the layers of stainless steel "forgot to put" aluminum!
Or maybe they didn't even intend to!
And if these layers are well sealed (and even leaky) welded to each other around the circumference, then a slight overheating will easily lead to the fact that the stainless steel will "lead" and it will bend somewhere.
And the fact that "unknown" companies do not hesitate to use thinner metal in order to save money, then such a tin can bend and bend without much effort.
We have, for example, a stainless steel juicer, so there the bottom is not thickened at all, that is, "not encapsulated", but at least there, thank God, at the bottom they made a "stiffening rib" in the middle of the circle, by and large, the thickened bottom is not needed there - inside pots only the water is heated ...

[Igor]

Igor, well, you at least confirmed my assumptions, thanks !!

[pressed in]

In general, the Medzher ESO said that they were making measurements by hand and the outside turned out to be 14, inside they could not measure only sawing, The feature of the Feychon series is the type of bottom
thickened with pressed in disc, not encapsulated. Maybe the bottom runs into the walls on purpose, increasing its thickness and thereby not letting the thinner walls above heat up much, since the walls of the pan are straight, this may be a constructive necessity. Even in enamel pans where the bottom is with a "skirt", the same milk burns less.

not letting the thinner walls get too hot above

What for??

they take measurements manually and from the outside it turned out 14

So if this pad was 50 mm, they would write that the bottom is 50 mm thick ???

this is the bottom type
thickened with a pressed-in disc, not encapsulated

This is also an encapsulated bottom! I see no reason to discuss, especially since I'm not a hardware technologist, probably, like you ...

Maybe the bottom runs over the walls on purpose, increasing its thickness and thereby not letting the thinner walls get too hot above

This is only to produce a purely external effect: oh, what a great bottom thickness! The paradox is that through this excess metal there is heat transfer from the heating source to the walls, albeit through stainless steel and less than through aluminum. But if this excess metal is not there, then there will be practically no heat transfer! So you made a wrong conclusion, contrary to logic!

What for??

Why, you need to explain somehow the contradictions ...

Now on NTV there is a program about smoking and appliances and harm and benefit !!

In pans with a thick bottom, food burns less.

if there is no non-stick layer in the dishes, then the food will burn, only if the bottom and walls are thicker, then it is simply not as fast as in thin-walled dishes.
If heated over a quiet and very quiet fire, it will not burn in any dish, or the burn will be minimal.

Non-stick layer - or a century of experience fatty deposits, this is how they prepare cast-iron dishes by heating them with oils, or modern applied non-stick layers, Teflon, for example.

Ladies, does anyone have any experience with the Delimano Brava Sausage Maker? Is it worth buying or will it lie?

[Natasha]

Natasha, expensive then .. but interesting! It seems to me that not very long.

manually and outside it turned out 14, cannot measure inside

I have a pan of this series. From the outside, the rim looks high in terms of the thickness of the bottom, but if you put the finger of one hand to it from the outside, and the finger of the other hand against the bottom, then the difference in height is about 2 times. For the rest of the parameters, everything is normal, the walls are not thin, the handles have not yet fallen off, moderately heavy. As Irsha wrote, the ability to burn is present, it is worth soaking.

I liked the steel gauges very much:

[helenanik]

helenanik, I want to warn you about glass jars. My daughter bought similar ones in Ikea, poured vermicelli into them, and a month later she calls and says that while eating she felt a piece of glass in her mouth. It turned out that a rather large piece on the neck had broken off and where the rest of it was unknown. As a result, a sleepless night, emergency gastroscopy, getting rid of the purchase. No wonder I was restrained with this kind of lid jars.
