HSTEACH Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I'm a certified executive chef. When I retire and move with the little lady back to Thailand, I'll have you guys over for a meal. You name the menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junglesoup Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 >Nah. Try Calphalon instead. The ultimate for me: Le Creuset. Great cooking characteristics, indestructable, and as heavy as shit: http://le-creuset.pans.com/ -j- My mother was put off buying this stuff because it was too heavy for her to lift around, in and out of the oven etc. They must cut older less strong people out of their market for this reason. Maybe I m talking bullshit but it is a possibility. Anyway, at the prices they dont need to sell too many units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teddy Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 ....I like to cook' date=' but invariably the result is disappointing. [/quote']Just discovered the answer. You got it, a set of Jamie Oliver Professional Series stainless steel pots and pans. With a set of these I can't go wrong, can I? Gourmet meals here I come. :grin: Now you need to get a decent set of knives to make your cooking more enjoyable, I have a full set of Global Cromova knives which I have found to be the best I have tried. Also you need a really good wok, don't buy the Jamie Oliver stir fry pan because it isn't a proper wok. Try the Nordic Ware Restaurant Asian Wok, it's feckin brilliant :thumbup: As for pinnies, they haven't yet made one with enough string to wrap around your waist so you will have to get one specially made :smirk: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lembeh Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 >Maybe I m talking bullshit but it is a possibility. Nah, you are spot on. Le Crueset is made of cast iron - they are *heavy*.....very heavy. -j- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MooNoi Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I reckon Munchie and Teddy would have one of the selections from above: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Teddy would probably pick Apron 3, to try to enhance his very slender physique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
