Review Iron Chef J65-0001 12-Inch Stir-Fry Pan with Bamboo Handle / Joyce Chen J65-0001:Iron Chef cookware is produced using a new proprietary casting technology that enables the production of lightweight, thin walled cast iron cookware. The technology involves a new process, a special alloy, and unique tooling to create an iron casting with less porosity and more ductility. As a result the casting is not as brittle as conventional cast iron and can be cast into thickness that are less than half as thick. So each piece of Iron Chef cookware weights about half as much as its traditional counterpart. Iron Chef cookware has captured the key benefits of cast iron cookware-even heat distribution, good temperature control, and good heat retention-without the uncomfortable excess weight. And by using tempered cast glass lids, Iron Chef cookware further keeps its weight under control without sacrifice in performance or appearance. Each piece of Iron Chef cookware has two coats of high-fired enamel on the outside, one coat of enaml plus Whitford's highly durable, premium Quantanium non-stick interior. To keep the weight down, all attachment hardware is cast aluminum. And to remind us of the Iron Chef's Asian origins, the generously sized handles are made from burnished bamboo. Iron Chef cookware is a new concept in cooking. [+]
It provides all the positive of cast iron while covercoming the weight problem of traditional cast iron cookware. It is available in a tight col.

Review Typhoon Cast Iron and Stainless Steel Fondue Set / Typhoon HM18EC:Typhoon Cast Iron & Stainless Steel Fondue Set - Typhoon HM18EC A fondue pot and long forks bring friends together for a classic European dining experience. This fondue set from Typhoon melts cheese for dipping hunks of bread, chocolate for dipping strawberries and other fruit, and heats oil and sauces for dipping slices of meat. Made of heavy matt-black cast iron, the 7-by-4-inch pot sits securely on the 8-inch round cast-iron stand and retains heat admirably. Either methylated spirits or paste fuel can be put in the stainless-steel reservoir and lit to keep the fondue bubbling. A sliding cover adjusts the air flow and flame strength, and a snuffer puts the flame out when the feasting is done. Six nine-inch fondue forks are included with the set, each designed with a modern cylindrical handle made of polished stainless steel. A particularly handy feature is a number on the end of each handle so that diners can tell their forks apart. A stainless-steel ring rests on top of the pot with slots to hold the forks upright. The fondue pot, which holds 40 fluid ounces, should be washed before first use, seasoned lightly with oil, and washed by hand after each delicious meal. A recipe and instructional booklet is included. [+]

Review Bodum Stainless-Steel Fondue with Glass Insert / Bodum 5070-16US:Making fondue is as easy as enjoying it. Your Bodum fondue set will make for a stressfree gathering of friends and family as everybody is her or his own cook, so you can concentrate enjoying your guest. The gorgeous stainless steel fondue set comes with a glass insert for cheese and chocolate fondue, while the stainless steel pot is for meat and seafood fondue. The six fondue forks are numbered to prevent mix-ups. The fondue set requires the use of a special gelled fuel, sold separately. 1. 5 Qts. Strikingly contemporary in design, this fondue set combines a shapely, satin-finish stainless-steel pot and a glass bowl insert to serve all forms of fondue: oil, broth, cheese, and chocolate. The pot holds 2 quarts or more of oil or broth for festively cooking meat, poultry, seafood, and vegetables. The glass bowl insert has stainless-steel handles to lower it into the pot partially filled with hot water to keep 1 quart or more of cheese or chocolate fondue melted. [+]
Neither the pot nor the glass bowl are stovetop-safe so oil or broth need to be brought to a simmer in another container on the stove. When partially immersed in simmering water, the glass bowl will melt chocolate, but cheese fondue is best prepared first on the stove. Six stainless-steel fondue forks and a fork holder that fits into the pot's top are included. Gel fuel is required, but not included. The pot stands 9-3/4 inches high on an 8-1/8-inch-diameter base. All parts are dishwasher-safe. -Fred Brack.

Review Swissmar Arosa 11-Piece 3-in-1 Stainless-Steel Fondue Set / Swissmar F66417:Fondue creates an opportunity to sit down with friends or family to enjoy a leisurely, congenial meal. Ease of preparation and unique flavours and ingredients are some of the elements that have combined to make fondues a key food trend in recent years. This multi-purpose fondue set has a ceramic insert that acts as a double-boiler, so one fondue set can be used for different types of fondue: meat, cheese, or chocolate. Simply remove the ceramic bowl, put the splatter guard in place, and you're ready for a meat fondue. For cheese and chocolate fondue, place water in the fondue pot and put the ceramic bowl in place. Set of 11: stainless steel fondue pot (1. 5 litre/1. 6 quart capacity), ceramic fondue pot (1. 0 litre/1 quart), stainless steel splatter ring, rechaud (stand), dual-function burner, and 6 fondue forks. For a successful meat fondue, cut meat into 1" cubes. [+]
Arrange meat, cut vegetables, and side dishes on the table. Preheat oil in the fondue pot on the stove to a maximum temperature of 375°F/190C. Do not overfill the fondue pot (1/3 full is the maximum), as the oil may bubble up when food is added. Carefully transfer the pot onto the fondue rechaud to keep the oil hot. Each guest spears a piece of meat or vegetable and dips it into the oil to cook. Provide sauces for dipping. For extra flavour, add 2 Tbsp of olive oil and some fresh herbs, such as bay leaves or parsley, to the oil. For a healthier version of meat fondue, stock or broth can be used in place oil, an From casual get-togethers with a favorite bottle of wine to avant-garde presentations at fine restaurants, fondue always finds an enthusiastic audience. The Arosa 3-in-1 stainless-steel fondue set makes it easy to explore the delicious possibilities for cooking in oil, cheese, and chocolate any time the yen strikes. Launching off from the traditional earthenware version, this updated model incorporates the classic, sturdy proportions and wide handles conducive to communal dining while introducing lighter modern construction and versatile design-for a result that is a sleek and streamlined marriage of old and new. The 11-piece set begins with a gleaming 18/8 stainless-steel pot sitting on a matching three-legged rechaud stand. Steel is an excellent agent for fondue cooking, as it provides even heat distribution, corrosion resistance, and a nonsticking surface that's easy to cook in and clean. Underneath, a paste/gel fuel burner with a rubber-covered handle is both accessible and secure in its steady tiered base. A removable splatter guard on top features slots for the six numbered stainless-steel forks, so hands stay safe and cool even when temperatures below really heat up. To melt cheese or chocolate, add the high-sided, 1-quart ceramic bowl and use water in the pot to create a double boiler that will keep liquids smooth and bubbly without burning. For meat, remove the bowl and pour oil or another fondue broth right into the 1-1/2-quart pot itself-the liquid will remain at 350 degrees F for consistent, controlled cooking throughout the meal. Also included are easy recipes to get the party started, and extra ceramic inserts are sold separately to add courses and choices. Voila! Now it's time to invite five friends, get creative, and concoct appetizers, main courses, and desserts that'll keep everyone dipping for more! -Kara Karll.
