Emil Henry, cookware with foodie stories

Some cookware are for short use, some others can be for more than one generation, telling over and over again foodie stories kept from a generation to another. A family business made in the French region of Burgundy, Emile Henry offers for around six generations French design and cooking knowledge to the rest of the foodie world.
The cookware is made using a special burning technology and has an impressive 10-year guarantee. The prices are medium to high but the quality is outstanding and with this guarantee you know that your investment is safe.
As it first the production started with basic cookware products, it extended thereafter by offering now various items, such as pizza stone, bread cloche, tagine baker or baquette baker. Bowls and vinaigre bottles are part of the various collections too.
The basic technique is still used though, although slightly improved to the needs and requirements of the nowadays technology. The handles are particularly special allowing to take it from the oven in a comfortable and safe way. 
If you want to learn more about their techniques, products and the beauty of homemade cooking, their website shares couple of recipes that can be interesting to test. The design lines are simple, with shapes that can easily find a place in the busy closet. The predominant colours are blue, white, brown which gives a touch of high elegance and soberness.
As for me, I am in love with the smart idea of the salt pig. The non-glazed interior helps against sticking salt and you can add salt quickly and practically. Compared to the rest of the collection is also cheaper so sooner or later I will give it a try.

The Fissler Cookware

Today is the day when I am decided to discover and share more about kitchen cookware and accessories than about anything else. 

The next on the list are the famous Fissler Innovation cookware. Fissler was created in 1845 in Germany by Carl Philippe Fissler and it offers an amazing variety of cooking tools and cookwares that could be purchased from the distribution centers from all over the world.

I wanted to find out more about Intensa series because it looks as I need regularly. Practical and with a long life-span, easy stacking and energy saving, with a good grip on the pan - as I am very clusmy and distracted very often - and a measuring scale included. It retains heat and it keeps the heat long time after cooking. The lid is provided with a thermostate that indicates the temperature: when is all red the job is done. And, by the way, it works very well with any type of stove. Another interesting aspect that looks appealing (meaning practical) to me is the possibility of resting the lid in the handle and in this way you do not have any problem when you serve it at the table. The design is nice and you should not be worried that your guests will not appreciate it. 

Now, I should go back in the real life to work more in order to have enough money to invest in a Fissler tool.
