Cooking tech.

While I don't cook as often, I still like to cook.  Since figuring out how to use stainless and cast, and why high carbon pans don't work so abandoning those with aluminum and non-stick pans, I have been experimenting with utensils.  One sort of traditional spatula has come out on top, but the rest are chinese/wok utensils.

Finding decent utensils that don't have huge handles, cost far too much, and hold up to gorilla strength use at times, in traditional European shapes, has proven futile.  Gladly, in some sense.  Those things drove me to go where few gweilo go.  And while they can stick their crude chopsticks wherever they like, their utensils are worthy tools.

Just check out their tools.  Find solidly built ones and give them a shot.  The one nod to European cookery is the long flat fish flipper spatula, with slats.  It works terribly well for certain things.  So many European utensils are made of soft, untempered steel, or cost a fortune, or have huge handles which makes storage and organization difficult, or all and other problems.  It is like sellers are trying to sell what we don't want to buy.

Actually, that is the problem with cars.  I don't want automatic headlights, or anything else.  I don't want airbags everywhere.  I don't want electronic trash littered through the vehicle.  I don't even want automatic transmissions anymore.  And the cheapest they can build a new car is crazy.  If they burn, it is either the industry's choice or government, though the two collude against us, so...

Oh.  Hmm?  Just thinking and grumbling as I get ready for animal care.  The girls are getting feisty.  After, a few calls then a nap.  Later.
