Flame diffuser (flame diffuser) for gas stove

Flame diffuser (flame diffuser) for gas stove

(English Flame Diffuser or Heat Diffuser)

This little device was often talked about on the site, but it never went "to the people" ...

I open a special topic, show and talk about this small kitchen thing, which, as it turned out, is very necessary for cooking.

The shape of the flame deflectors can be different:



Feel free to put meat, chicken fillets, vegetables, herbs, a little broth, dry wine, spices on the foil - wrap in an envelope, put the flame divider on the wire rack, at medium (high) heat.
Hold it on the wire rack until the bag is "critical", the bag will inflate strongly.
In 20-25 minutes, lunch will be ready! The workpiece can be made in the evening and kept in the refrigerator, and cooked in the morning on a flame divider.

I hope you have received enough information on using a device such as a gas stove flame diffuser.

Further, I ask you to express your opinion and share your experience of using the flame diffuser

I use a flame diffuser when it's jam season

It is convenient to cook jellied meat, it boils almost imperceptibly.

From my own experience (I have a gas stove).
Even on the smallest burner, over time, the handle of the divider burns out and cracks if it is made of wood. If there is an opportunity to buy a divider with met. handle, take it better.
In addition, the handle is foldable for easy storage.

And here's another stray for you in Temko.
This is a gas stove reducer. Helps to cook even in miniature vessels, for example in one cup Turks. You can also melt butter in a small steel cocotte pan (for dough or sauce).

I must say, this is a fascinating thing - to fire peppers on a splitter! Not only is the activity itself cool, but also the aroma in the kitchen was as if I had a grill with coals in my house. Super easy!
Here are some handsome guys:

We must try to cook peppers like that!

I must say, this is a fascinating thing - to fire peppers on a splitter! Not only is the activity itself cool, but also the aroma in the kitchen was as if I had a grill with coals in my house. Super easy!
Here are some handsome guys:

Linen, well, it happened at last! I ran over, but bought all the same dividers, well done!
You hold them longer to get a better bake. And choose peppers with straight sides for these purposes - I do this now if you need to bake
And I bought myself new dividers yesterday, light ones - I hope they won't rust. See the photo above, these are my splitters, the two bottom photos. They are freely sold in the store, I bought in two different stores, from gluttony - and then suddenly, you will pick everything up from excitement

I'm happy for you, I'm waiting for some tasty treats

Until recently, I only had a reducer in my kitchen. I bought the divider with the purchase of cookware made of heat-resistant ceramics.
My divider is in the form of a metal mesh and with a metal handle. I have fears that this mesh will burn out over time
Therefore, I want another, more reliable diffuser. Admin, how much did you buy yours for?

Tanya, well, I congratulate you on the new dividers!
This morning (somewhere at 13-30) I decided to get sick a little more (sciatica has not given life since the New Year).So, I creep up to the laptop, and here you are, a new Temka about splitters! Well, where can I go? Of course, go for the dividers! Quickly dashed off a list of everything you need for culinary creations, took the doomed husband under the white hands and off you go! Well, we quickly found the cutters, but the languages, as it turned out, were not waiting for me anywhere. Out of grief, we bought a leg of lamb. Well, it’s me out of grief, and my husband smiled so hard all the way home that he almost got a slap on the head, so that he didn’t express his happiness so clearly when I don’t have languages, but it would be better if he followed the road. And what do you think, right next to the house in the next store I saw languages. Well, I bought it ... Oh, and I burned the pepper with such a thrill, I can't convey it!
By the way, I bought the most ordinary steel dividers. It's just that they were so ridiculously little worth that she decided not to chase all over Moscow for stainless steel. In extreme cases, they will rust - it's not a pity to throw it away, bought new ones and all the business!

I love the flame divider gently and use it for its intended purpose, I especially like to use it when cooking rice and stewing beef - it does not allow them to burn. I have this one, with a wooden handle, on which, as it turns out, you can bake peppers with your own fingers.
And I also have a reducer, I bought it for the largest burner, but it is small for it.

[Admin]

I respect and love flame diffusers, because without them there is absolutely nothing in the kitchen. Even more, I have as many as two flame diffusers. One with a metal, detachable or bendable handle, well, very comfortable. There is also a second one, like a Czech one, which is without handles, but made of a small, fine mesh (He has Admin goes to the second photo). I use it less often, as a rule, together with another - first I put a regular biconvex one with large holes on the burner, but now I put a fine mesh on top of it, here it turns out just a super gentle and delicate mode for very slow frying of fish or cutlets, or for boiling freshly stuffed homemade sausages or for the most delicate cooking of jam from delicate berries, such as raspberries, strawberries. Nothing boils violently, only the surface barely shudders. And you don't have to follow the stove. On two flame diffusers, nothing ever escapes, I so love to cook rice milk porridge. And cutlets and fish never get burnt, everything seals and preserves juice in the best way. I supplied all my acquaintances with flame breakers, one might say voluntarily, forcibly, for some did not hear, did not see, others, out of their ignorance, believed that they did not need it. So, all the forcibly gifted happily use the flame-breakers and wonder how they used to live without them, and remember with horror how they had to watch the cutlets vigilantly so as not to burn them. Flame deflectors are all!

[Lily]

Therefore, I want another, more reliable diffuser. Admin, how much did you buy yours for?

Oh, Temka came to life! It turns out that there are many of us, lovers of dividers! Share your experience, share - very interesting!

Lily, I bought 121 and 135 rubles at my place in Dmitrov, the ones in the photo above, the price is affordable

Oh. do we have something new in the design? Or am I a glitch? But now on business ... I bought the cutter a long time ago (10 years ago), I planned to cook the youngest in small volumes (the grill on the stove is not very successful). I brought it home (with holes for me), washed it, dried it, put it on the stove, and from there it poured like smoke. Well. I think, okay, to see technical lubrication. Soaked, washed, dried ... Again the fumigator ... And so several times. I was very upset, and did not manage to try it in action ... I decided that the device was very cheap, so they did not bring it to mind, and they do all sorts of dirty tricks. I abandoned it, but did not buy a new one. And now I read and envy you, to see I was just not lucky. Do you urgently need to buy a new one? The little thing is very convenient. She ran away .. I wrote because there are such surprises, so that our hostesses are not afraid - just an unsuccessful copy was caught, and so a very necessary thing. Merry Christmas everyone!

And in a frying pan on a divider, it is good to fry the walnuts. They dry well, you can rarely interfere, and what is valuable - they do not burn at all. When I just roasted in a pan, some of the nuts were always burnt. The flame diffuser got rid of this!

And not only walnuts, but also peanuts and a favorite national delicacy - seeds!

[Creamy]

But somehow I didn’t think about the seeds ..... True, I fry them without any problems, but I also need to try them on the razkatale. Creamy, thanks for the idea!

And not only walnuts, but also peanuts and a favorite national delicacy - seeds!

And the seeds do not fly away?

And where should the seeds fly from? The pressure and gravity remained the same, only the temperature is not such a shock, but stably low.

And the seeds do not fly away?

Yes, not on the divider itself, but in the frying pan, which is on the divider, the schob did not burn and was evenly browned

And for sure, because earlier there were fried peppers in the topic. on the flame deflector itself.

Yes, not on the divider itself, but in the frying pan, which is on the divider, the schob did not burn and was evenly browned

Semyon Semyonitch! And I am fully confident that it is ...

I have been using a flame diffuser for a long time, I have it since Soviet times, it is 25-30 years old. Then a second flame diffuser with smaller holes appeared in unknown ways.
Both of them are with removable handles, serve me faithfully, most often I use them when making ghee. It was simply created for this, although I take a pan with thick sides and bottom.

Now I want to cook something on a flame divider in foil, my hands are itching. This is something new for me.

A fine mesh flame diffuser is very convenient when frying pancakes. Pancakes are guaranteed to turn out all the same degree of ruddy, they simply cannot be burned, although I bake pancakes at full power of a regular (not small) gas burner in a stainless Ametovski frying pan. This frying pan is washed in the dishwasher.

I also often used a flame divider, but that was a long time ago, when the burners of the gas stove were located high from the table itself, and as soon as the stove was changed, during the first use of the divider, the completely clean surface of the table around the burners under the divider was covered with small burnt specks. It was very difficult to clean up all this. I didn't risk it anymore. I want to ask, did it work for me alone? Now a stainless steel gas stove table and looking at all of you think, can you try again?

And what is the need to use the divider all the time?
Spots on the surface of the stove can appear from the burning of the divider, particles fall down. It can be with a new divider or if it is made of such flimsy metal. I had such a black divider, it was constantly burned. Or something can fall from it when cooking, for example, when peppers, eggplants are baked, something crumbles from a saucepan, frying pan from the bottom.

I want to ask, did it work for me alone?

Your divider has absolutely nothing to do with it. Most likely, these were spots of fat that you did not notice. I already had it. In the evening I washed the stove and the next day, being sure that it was still clean, put a huge pan of mantle on it. After cooking the manti, I take off the pan and my eyes darken from microscopic burnt specks on the stove. How so, after all, I washed it and have not cooked anything yet ?! Where are the stains from? And the casket simply opened: it turned out that the husband had been frying eggs in the morning, and microscopic specks of fat that were not visible to the naked eye scattered over the surface. It was they who burned down by the mantle.
And the divider ... but even if it is at least three times old and soot falls from it, this very soot cannot stick to the stove, it is already burnt, it simply has nothing to stick with. So, your splitter is not to blame, feel free to use it.Moreover, the hob is made of stainless steel. For me - too, and nothing is done with it (if it is clean, of course).

Try again, but cover the surface of the stove with aluminum foil. She will show what is the matter.

Hello, I wonder if you can cook peppers like that on an electric stove? Maybe someone tried it?

Hurrah!!! Long live our forum !!! I prepared a divider for giving my mother-in-law to the village, and suddenly a recipe for tongues with pepper, oh ... Now I WILL NOT GIVE IT !!!

I brought it home (with holes for me), washed it, dried it, put it on the stove, and from there it poured like smoke

So I have the same story. I washed it, put it on the fire, and then how the smoke poured out and how it stinks! The fire also started. I got scared and turned off the gas. Below the divider turned blue. Now I'm afraid to ignite it again. I have this: 🔗

This is normal! The circle can be lubricated with special grease before storage and sale, so it burns
For the first time, place the circle on a low heat and let it burn a little.
And yet, depending on what metal it is made of: there are black ones, they burn well and in the future can rust from water.
There is a stainless steel, this will be nothing when used.

And they can burn after you burn some of the vegetables on them, the juice will bake and then it will burn.
You need to take care of the circles, clean

[Admin]

Admin, kudos for the idea of ​​roasting peppers on a splitter. I made a tongue with them according to your recipe. Indescribable yummy ...

I use a divider, which is called "for life" - it was always in my mother's house ... from childhood I got used to it ... and I naturally got myself it - this is a VERY necessary thing, I join the girls' words when it is necessary to slowly and for a long time torment that -that (jellied meat), and I also bake on it not only peppers, but also EGGPLANTS - for Odessa caviar - deliciousness INdescribable - right at home - like from a fire! I love my divider (it's really old). This topic prompted me that you can already buy a new one - there are some pretty ones ...

I bake on it not only peppers, but also EGGPLANTS - for Odessa caviar - deliciousness is INdescribable

Rita, can you get a recipe for Odessa caviar in the studio? I really like raw caviar, I recently cooked it, it turned out spicy

I also have rasskatel, even 2. I really like it, I cook porridge with their help. The porridge does not burn and is crumbly. I even stopped cooking it in the cartoon, it's better on the stove. And the sous vide cooks beautifully, the temperature does not rise above 70 in the pan.
And it is also very convenient to sterilize empty jars and sterilized jellied meat. Just fine, nothing hovers, slowly boils in cans.

[Marina]

Marinaand how about banks? Pour some water and put the jar on the divider

[Admin]

Admin, oh, forgive my carelessness ... :-) I promise to tell you tomorrow in detail, with a photo of a problem, because it's not the season! Even in our south, eggplants are already only "shop". Now I will cook in the summer ... Eh ...
The main idea is this (although each family has its own secrets): eggplants are baked directly on gas (on divisors, cast-iron plates, etc.), then they peel off the skin, I scrape the pulp with a spoon). You can knead it with a fork or cut it, depending on the degree to which you bake it, put it in a salad bowl, finely chop raw onion, raw tomatoes, no skin, three on a coarse grater, if you want, you can chop finely ... stream, pepper! And that's it! We are already eating! This is delicious! And nothing else is NECESSARY! EVERYTHING ELSE WILL ONLY TASTE THE TASTE, WRITE HARMONY. :-) :-) :-)

Yes, I forgot, we add vegetable oil, I love sunflower oil ... the taste and smell of the haze will be overwhelmed! ..

[Rita]

Rita, THANK YOU! I will try to do
Recently I also baked and cooked raw caviar - it was very tasty I want to repeat

[Admin]

Adminwhat are your ingredients? Are you doing a little differently? I got so excited all of a sudden, I even thought, BAKE something at least in store?

[Natalia]

Natalia, jars are sterilized empty. Only after that you need to put it carefully, on a napkin, so as not to burst.
Natasha, I have a mesh divider at the bottom, and stainless steel on top, without holes.
I didn't even know about the existence of such dividers. My husband bought a teapot, glass, and he was offered a divider for him. And then they bought the second one, because one is not enough for me.

[Rita]

Rita, I bought at the market, but still there is only one source - the vegetable base.
I will try to repeat the recipe, then I will write what and what I have written down the recipe, and I have made some extra tricks myself. But it was delicious, especially when the caviar stood a little in the refrigerator for a day
But, LITTLE! Of two eggplant, only 2/3 cups were trampled down - for one clove

[Marina]

Marina, understandably. And I have holes. So it won't work?

[Natalia]

Natalia, you try with a can, which you will not regret.

[Marina]

Marina, and how long to sterilize?

[Natalia]

Natalia, I don't time. I touch the can until it warms up to the top, I do not take it off. If I need a dry can, I just put it on, dry it and use it as directed. And for sterilization, I keep it until it is very hot.

[Admin]

AdminYes, 2 eggplants are not enough for such a tasty treat, at least 4 .., but on the other hand - I did more - overeat something like that ... I don't like when such dishes "get stuck"! Better to throw a couple more eggplants on the divider again ...))) So that the family feels a "delicacy", delicious!
You know, I also did it with pepper on a divider, like ordinary caviar, but raw onions, I just chop finely, cool salt and rub it with my fingers with salt until it becomes soft, it gives off bitterness. Sometimes I lightly rinse the onions afterwards and sometimes I don't! I add it and shabby raw tomatoes without the skin - the tomatoes will marinate the onions! ... And this mixture is waiting while I peel the baked eggplants (with or without peppers))). Then mix everything - right WARM! Salt carefully, because the onions were salted !!! And some black pepper! I don't like adding garlic here - it clogs up the haze aroma. But some, I know, add. Then some butter! Here comes cilantro, who loves. My husband can't stand her, unfortunately! Because of him, I don’t put it when he’s not on the flight))) TASTY !!!

Girls, I have lived with a gas stove all my life, but I never thought about such a thing. I liked the peppers very much (I would never have thought of it), I will have to try, and caviar. Here's another question for those who have a gas cooker, but do you have an electric oven? I'll just do the repairs and think about the oven, electric is more praised

Who has a gas cooker, and your oven is electric? I'm just going to make repairs and think about the oven, electric is more praised

Correctly say - the electric oven is better in all respects
I have a gas hob, a freestanding electric oven (independent)

Tanya, thanks again This is the last argument in favor of the electric oven. And then there were still doubts Yet habit and economy haunted
