The kitchen is a journey for a great many people. It is a hub of family interaction and the source of the sustenance that sustains us. We are not professionals, we are simply a family exploring this realm together, and we invite you to come along for the ride. Find recipes, product reviews, vlogs, and all things family kitchen here. Pampered Chef was the catalyst for our kitchen journey. If you are interested in being a consultant or a host, reach out to Anna at www.pamperedchef.com/pws/akouba.
I agree... and the can strainer is another thing to wash when you can just rinse the can. Also, you can put the bare in a cheap plastic condiment container (dollar store) if you really wanted!
Hello, sorry we are not very active on YT anymore. Anna used the Post my Party connected a facebook group for most of her parties. She has since switched more using Pampered Chef's "The Table" as it is more user friendly.
Did you or anyone try the brick on top theory to see if the tool dug down more quickly? If so, did the tool bog down or burn through batteries? I have a bunch of soil that needs turning over and I'm debating renting something bigger vs taking longer to do with this tool or just using a shovel and rake and really getting the job done right. I own the Ryobi edger that goes with this same 18v one-plus batts and for my purposes it's great and in terms of the One-plus system I do like all of the one-plus options from vacuums to insect zappers, etc, that for a very reasonable cost you can use the batts for. I think Milwaukee or that level is where I'm headed on drills, saws, etc, but for "this" level of work, I'm digging (pun intended) the ryobi. Thx! Good call doing both the grass and pre-worked earth on camera - very helpful to see the difference.
I fried an egg in the 10" Pampered Chef pan this morning with no oil and my egg had very minor sticking. I flipped the egg and turned it out without breaking the yolk. Still, your video is well done and very helpful.
I know it's a bit older of a video, but came across your video before purchasing and figured I'd offer some insight from a coffee drinker's standpoint. As far as exact temperature control, this is going to be a major benefit for coffee drinkers using pour-overs or aeropress brewing methods because the temperature that you want is going to vary based on the roast. For example, if you're using a dark roast...brewing at a lower temperature (I got to around 170-180) is going to take some bitterness out and allow the coffee to bloom a bit more. The timer function (which you can set anywhere from 3s to 5 minutes according to the manual) is going to be very useful for Aeropress users like myself. There is a "steep" time to account for and that's going to vary depending on roast and preference. It makes a huge difference and you'd be shocked how a short timeframe can change the end result (for one of the darker roasts I use, steeping for 1 minute vs 1 minute 30 seconds make a world of a difference). Not sure how much using the built in timer makes sense, but I'll test it out when the kettle arrives (I usually just use my phone). Last thing you touched on was the flow rate itself, when using a pour-over or aeropress you'll definitely want to evenly pour over the coffee and if you have too heavy of a flow it'll potentially create channels which will make pours inconsistent because some water may go through too quickly if there are channels that are created (which means it's not actually going to steep with the coffee). One other thing that is probably really only going to matter for specific people, but having a quick and easy C to F button makes things a lot easier when your wife comes from a country that uses C but I'm still used to F. Anyways, thanks for making the video. It gave me a good visual for size. Made a difference when deciding on a new kettle.
My wife got the cordless mixer set up for her birthday, it was about 1 year before she took it out of the box and low and behold both batteries were defective after talking to a representative they said no warranty on this unit,l was shocked l was thinking Pampered chef was a good company? Really disappointed in Pampered chef, l wouldn't recommend buying anything from these people
I'm sorry to hear that. I would strongly advise trying products within the 30 day no questions asked return period. That product did have a warranty as well, but I don't believe it was over a year.
But if you aren't following manufacturers recommended use, then how is this relevant? You say you cook with olive oil lol I'm hoping you are aware that you can do eggs and steak flawlessly/non stick in a regular stainless too..proper heat and proper oil. Not sure if you happy with the pampered chef or not, yet your wife is a consultant.. i want my 20 mins back lol.
Not everyone follows manufacturers recommendation, most people dont read, so I tested for them. What's the beef olive oil. I typically use my cast iron or iron clad mc2 for steaks, that doesnt take away from this product. It never ceases to amaze me that people are suprised that we can like (or not like) products while my wife is a consultant.
I absolutely love my mix n masher for deviled eggs. It makes the yolks so smooth. Something I struggle with using just a fork. It’s not worth digging out my hand mixer for a few deviled eggs, but the mix n masher is fabulous.
