Fickle Fork of Fate

Tools

My Knives

Ask any chef or cook what their most important tool is, and they'll all answer the same. "Knives". Well, except for Guy Fieri, who will answer his Jimmy Buffett Margaritaville combination margarita maker, popcorn machine, and panini press, if he's being honest. But even Guy is shilling his own branded knives these days, so he probably won't be honest.

Holy Shit

I don't make nearly enough from Google Ads.See that? I saw that on Ruhlman's blog.

That's an immersion circiulator for the home. The first proper home-kitchen sous vide tool.

My Food Processor

A rare instance of the bowl not being either full of food or soapy water.I've been using my food processor like a maniac over the past few days, and realized I was remiss in talking about it.

It's a remanufactured Kitchenaid that I got a deal on from Amazon in the summer of last year, after breaking my old crappy Wolfgang Puck-branded food processor that I broke trying to make bread crumbs.

The Universal Cooking Vessel

This is my wok.

Technically, this is more than my wok. This is my Universal Cooking Vessel. The Bodum K0810-01 cast iron wok with glass lid. No longer available through Amazon, unless you live in the UK.

Cathy got this for me a couple of years ago after a friend of hers, another avid home cook, raved about it. And it's earned a near-permanent position on my stovetop ever since.

Kitchen Shears

These are my kitchen shears.
