Default Working at a Kitchen Supply store

I got a seasonal job over the holidays at a kitchen store, which has
turned out to be permanent. What a dangerous place to work- I'm like a
kid in a candy store! We carry some nice stuff- All Clad, De Buyer,
Mauviel, Le Creuset, Woll, Emile Henry, etc. The owner is really
sweet, and has stuff employees can take home to test out for
themselves. I also get a nice employee discount, so that's where I did
a lot of my Xmas shopping. I am also finding some other cool stuff! We
have a product called E-Cloths, which are microfiber cleaning cloths.
I have the window one and I really like it. You only need water! I
have a GSD who jumps up on the sliding glass door when she wants to
come in, and this works great on her muddy prints. Just curious as to
what you would spring for- I think I want a Woll frying pan!

That was one of the items I was allowed to take home and test out- I
can understand why you have a few!

I take them back as they belong to the shop. It is a really good idea
on her part as it is much easier for me to sell stuff if I have
personally used it. Another new fave is a Kyocera paring knife, which
is ceramic if you didn't know- that is one sharp knife!

Well, yes, I assumed you took them back. But does she sell *used*
cookware and cooking implements?

Ever have a customer ask if the ceramic knife can pass a metal detector?

I think Woll cookware is butt ugly and way over priced for a non-stick
coated pan one can buy for under $10 that will perform as well as any
non-stick coated pan.

It is NOT a "non-stick coated pan" I would not entertain such in my
kitchen!
You need to brush up on your reading skills.

The only pretty cookware IMO is copper! Have you ever tried De Buyer
Mineral? I like that also...

I'm interested in your E-cloths because I have glass interior doors, a
glass topped dining table and 2 two YO grandchildren whose fingers
seem to be attracted to glass and full length mirrors.

I'm sure you should be able to find them down there- I also am very
happy with the general cleaning one. There is also one for stainless...

I'm not sure where to find them. Are they found at Target and/or Home
Depot? I'd like the stainless steel and the granite one too. Google
didn't help me find a local store.

I looked also to see if I could refer you to a place, but Amazon may
be your best bet.

http://myecloth.com/ was what I saw as being recommended, so I'll just
go with that. Thanks. I love the idea! I might as well order the
silver embedded, because it's supposed to fight bacteria between
washings too.

Anyway, thanks for the information. I hadn't heard about it before
you mentioned it.

They have perfectly good microfiber cloths at the Dollar Tree store for,
you guessed it, $1.

We've had a Woll for about 5 years now. It is the most used pan in

I realized my microfiber cloths weren't doing as well and read somewhere
that using a clothes dryer sheet when laundering them is Not a good thing.

I've read using a clothes dryer sheet is not good thing for any
laundry. As I understand it, the anti-static mechanism in these
cloths is a form of wax, which melts and is dispersed under heat to
negate the static build-up. Constant use creates a film of wax on
clothing, which in turn causes graying of whites. I quit using them
years ago and don't miss 'em.


OTOH, I also no longer wear no-iron polyester dress pants, which are
capable of creating enough static charge in a single load to pull the
moon out of its orbit!

LOLOL! Polyester? I didn't know they still sold clothes made out of
(100%) polyester. I don't suppose you have a leisure suit in your
closet?

Never a "leisure suit", but usta wear no-iron beltless dress slacks.
They were poly-something. Hadda have two tractors to pull 'em apart
comin' outta the dryer unless I used those anti-static thingies.

http://www.sears.com/haggar-men-s-ex...p-045M0742000P

There they are. See? "100% Polyester"! From my shirt n' tie days as
a cubicle commando.

Now wear basically fleece apres ski pants or straight cuff sweat
pants. Basically, pajama bottoms ...and nothing but shorts in the
Summer. Haven't even worn a pair Levis in a cpl yrs. Ya' outta see
my new custom made brick red waffle-pattern fleece pair. Call me
Mr. Redpants!!

That is true- no fabric softener.

It's also not recommended to place microfiber cleaning products into
the clothes dryer, it's recomended to hang them to air dry, heat
destroys the microfibers. I use the Bona system microfiber pads to
mop my hardwood floors. I also use microfiber cloths to clean flat
panel TV screens.. it's what the TV manufacturer recommends, and use
only water, no other cleaner... if you use a fabric softener on
microfiber cloths they won't clean, they will streak.

I've never used a Woll pan but from what I can find on the net it's
butt ass ugly, seems way over priced... and I don't see the point to
that detachable handle.
http://www.amazon.com/Woll-Titanium-.../dp/B002A02IVM
If I wanted a non-stick coated pan (I don't) I can buy one at any
stupidmarket for under $10.

My favorite go-to pan is a 12" SS Farberware (w/ss lid, no stupid
glass lid), no coating and doesn't stick... and I love that's it's 3"
deep, cuts way down on spatter, and deep enough to use as a brazier...
I often use it for stir fry.
http://www.amazon.com/Farberware-Cla.../dp/B000058AKD
Btw, the handle(s) on the Farberware detach too, need an ordinary
phillips screwdriver, but I see no point in removing the handle(s)...
been using this pan for some 40 years and never once thought to remove
the handle(s), not even for cleaning... occasionally I've retightened
them.

I looked at the link and read the description. Apparently the handle
quickly detaches because you can put this "frying pan" in the oven.
Speaking for myself, I wouldn't have much need to do that.

Most things that go into my oven require a much deeper pot/pan unless
I'm broiling. And I sure wouldn't use a pan like that for oven-broiling.

I usta cook chicken breasts by browning them in my SS skillet, then
finishing them in the oven. They came out very moist.

I'm looking at the Woll 11" skillet cuz it'd be great for us. Can
make three 6" pancakes w/o having to set up the griddle. I use an 11"
skillet, now, for cooking Mom's breakfast. Bacon, eggs, pancakes,
etc, but it's a cheapo and the non-stick coating is deteriorating
rapidly. Still, I think I could find a commercial non-stick Wearever
for cheaper.

Yep!

....and oven safe, too. I had one of these. They hang in great, for the
price, and are NSF cert.

I've had my Woll pans at least 10 years. The only way I could buy them at
that time was at Home Exhibitions. I have always used metal utensils on
them and because of the removable handles, they have served their time in
the oven too!! They are still good as new My most used one is the big
saute pan with the lid but the big square one is good too, although it is
now a bit heavy for me and I use it mostly in the oven because it holds a
lot.

The link to that pan doesn't say a thing about it being oven safe.
