Zyliss Fresh Cut Salad Knife, Green Review

Zyliss Fresh Cut Salad Knife, Green
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a good, inexpensive and versatile knife that can be used as a spreader and server. I stumbled upon it when I needed an inexpensive item to meet the free shipping requirement.
It's good for cutting soft & leafy vegetables (lettuce, tomato), things that can be cut with sawing motion. It will not cut hard vegetable (carrot) that requires chopping motion.
It's particularly handy for making sandwiches. I can use it to spread the condiment, then slice the tomato or sweet pepper, and cut the sandwich in half at the end with just one knife. It's also great for cake, breads, brownies, etc.
It washes well in the dishwasher. A great buy overall!

Tear at leafy greens no more! This traditionally tedious task becomes a delight with Zyliss' Fresh Cut Salad Knife. The lightweight knife features a long, angled blade with an evenly serrated cutting edge. Place your greens on a cutting board and cut. The clean cut allows the leaves to stay green longer rather than quick-browning like torn leaves. It\'s also excellent with cakes, breads and brownies without leaving a trail of crumbs. The handle is long and the curved, ergonomic shape makes cutting easy—keeping your hands comfortable and dry. Crafted of durable white plastic. Safe on coated cookware and safe to wash in the dishwasher.

This is a fabulous, easy to use product that results in large, healthy flowers. I tried the liquid form and was not nearly as pleased with it because it was much more work to walk around my large yard with the hose and that bulky spray device. With the Shake and Feed, just sprinkle some around everything you want to feed and turn on the water. Of course you must be careful not to over-fertilize plants that might be planted in an already fertilized soil. That's just common sense.

Kyocera Double Edged Mandolin Slicer, Available in Red or Yellow Review

Kyocera Double Edged Mandolin Slicer, Available in Red or Yellow
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When I say "one thing", I do not mean to slander this device as a unitasker. It will not julienne -- but I don't julienne anyways. It won't cut spiral slices from an onion, if you're cooking your way through Michel Richard's book -- but you can get a much better device for that strange task. Instead, Kyocera made a nearly idiot-proof slicer that Does What It's Supposed To. This is about 99% glorious and 1% terrifying. Read on.
It slices paper-thin (I believe the measurement is 2mm?) planes of whatever you run across it, and it does so very, very quickly. The biggest drawback of this device is also its biggest strength -- before you know what happened, your garlic clove or pear or potato is sitting in a pile on your cutting board, neatly reduced to loose-leaf, and if you are not careful, you will have to hunt around for the bit of fingertip that got lopped off by the exceptionally sharp blade. It slices anything you put in its path, which is exactly what it's supposed to do -- so don't slice your fingers!
The designers were not joking when they emblazoned the device, the package, and all the marketing materials with warnings about how sharp the blade is You might think the hand-guard would ameliorate this hazard, but you'd be wrong, except for boundary cases with big thick vegetables. And you'll find yourself using this for so many smaller or wigglier vegetables that you will eventually dispense with that thing, so Watch Out. It's SHARP.
I find the hand-guard / smoosher to be almost useless unless you have a big, wide vegetable with a vast expanse of firm flatness to poke it into. Mostly I end up using my fingers and paying as much attention as I can to avoiding the maw of the slicer. It *WILL* cut bits of your fingers clean off, and it's so sharp that if you have calluses as thick as mine (from climbing and lifting weights), you may think you've escaped without incident. Don't be so sure. Look for the telltale flat pink bit on the end of your fingers and FISH THAT OUT OF THE SALAD, you savage! Not that I would ever find myself in such a situation, oh no. But, uh, I've read...
In any event, this device looks like junk and works like a charm. I paid $10 for mine and I use it constantly. It Just Works. You should try it.

Juwel Cold Frame 1000 Review

I like this coldframe. It's a nice size - you can fit a lot inside - and it's easy to put together. It has nice sturdy clips to hold the doors open or closed. The only thing I would like to see is some mechanism to hold the doors open all the way so the rain could get in. I am resorting to stakes to prop the doors open. But this is a very nice coldframe, and I sent one to my son as well.

WMF Profi Plus 11-1/4-Inch Stainless Steel Potato Masher Review

WMF Profi Plus 11-1/4-Inch Stainless Steel Potato Masher
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was suspicious about purchasing it since it is made in China; when I got it I was pleasantly surprise. This is a great potato masher. It is very sturdy and ergonomic. The head is actually oval unlike other mashers that are round or square and because of this design it fits into a pot much nicer. I didn't get the Rosle masher because I don't like the ring around the base of the handle. I may want to use two hands to mash because I have small hands and that idea would not work well for me. This masher is really great.

Zyliss Herb Snippers Review

Zyliss Herb Snippers

I grew a lot of fresh herbs this year. Rosemary, thyme. parsley, dill and many others. I love the fragrance and the fresh flavors have really kicked my culinary skills up a notch. What I like about these scissors is the feature that allows me to strip the leaves off the stems. Woody plants like Oregano and thyme are easy to snip and the leaves come off easily. As far as chopping though I still use a mezzaluna. I find that easier to mince with. But the scissors have their merit too. If your into fine needle work and sewing I can see these would be fine to have around. Just right for snipping herbs from the pots and and stripping the leaves from stems, I like it.

This Johnson Brothers Willow Blue Dinnerware 8-Inch Round Vegetable Bowl is a serving piece that is included in the highly collectible and prized Willow Blue Dinnerware line of porcelain china. This pattern is a good choice if you have decided to select one line for everyday and formal dining use.

I love to use Willow Blue when serving Asian food. This round bowl is the perfect size for an individual entree of Asian Noodles! (See _Asian Noodles_ by Nina Simonds, or _Noodle_ by Terry Durack for some authentic Asian noodle recipes, or _Meal in a Bowl_ by Elsa Petersen-Schepelern for 30 quick-and-easy international recipes.)

I was having a terrible time, trying to find salmon DOG Food !!! My little
Doxie has several allergies; and per Vet orders; needed to be on a food
where Salmon was the #1 ingredient !!
Amazon.Com was where I actually found some different choices. This is the
second one I have tried. The pup gobbles it right up/ & he's doing quite well
on it. It's an all natural product, which does appeal to me as an owner/&
it ships free if you buy quantity. If I could change anything; a pull tab
would be great !! It's difficult to open cans if the owner has arthritis/
or other difficulties with the hands. I hope I don't have to change brands,
because of that one packaging issue.

Delivered by UPS, this product is just about perfect. It does not have a disagreeable smell and the dogs love it. It is much less expensive than prescription dogfood and our dogs are thriving on it. You can even see an occasional pea and/or carrot. No grain to worry about.
