    Help with stainless steel pan

    I've owned a stainless steel pan for a while and I'm having some issues with it. Hopefully you guys can help me. 1. Let's say you cook something in it and it leaves a residue/fond. I find I can't cook something else in it and have it be non-stick again. Do I have to clean the pan between each...

    Does anyone own a West Japan Tools (Takayuki Shibata) Carbon Steel Pan?

    Does anyone own one of these? I'm interested to hear your thoughts, especially compared to matfers, de buyers etc. Is it worth the money?

    I'm looking for a stainless steel roasting dish

    I like the look of these cast iron Staubs. How would they be for making a pan sauce on the hob from the chicken juices after roasting?

    I'm looking for a stainless steel roasting dish

    I used to own one of those Le Creuset stoneware baking dishes. A few months ago, it cracked it half for seemingly no reason. I roasted a chicken as normal at about 200c and put it on the counter top and it split in half. I spoke to a friend and he said his did exactly the same thing. When I did...

    Bar Keepers Friend for stainless steel

    I'm trying to work out what this one is (especially as it's over half the price of the other ones). https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bar-Keepers-Friend-Surface-Household/dp/B00BLKGJ2G/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=bar+keepers+friend&qid=1590479220&sr=8-2

    Bar Keepers Friend for stainless steel

    So I've read a few times that Bar Keepers Friend is a good product to use to clean stainless steel pans. Here in the UK I'm not too familiar with it. I went on Amazon and noticed there were numerous types. What's the difference? Which one should I buy, (obviously I'd rather spend less money...

    Sauce on top, the Italian-American way

    I was wondering how Italian-Americans came to sauce pasta the way they do, i.e put cooked pasta on the plate and then dump sauce on top. Whereas in Italy they would mix the sauce and the pasta with a bit of starchy pasta water. I have travelled all around Italy and have never been given a...

    What's wrong with my Shibata Kotetsu AS 210mm gyuto?

    Sorry, I realised I never updated what happened about this. So I looked at the choil more carefully and compared it to other choil pictures online and to my Moritaka. It instantly became obvious that the knife had actually been sharpened quite a lot. My theory is the original owner used it...

    I need a new tin opener (UK)

    Hello friends, My tin opener is struggling to open some tins. I'm looking for a new one, just a simple manual one. I just want it to last for as long as possible and be decent to use. I'm based in the UK, so would rather avoid expensive shipping fees. Recommend away.
