Find the best in cookware (That's Shanghai) Updated: 2006-07-18 11:50
Too often cheap, low-quality kitchenware wears out after frequent
use. As celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse insists, using high quality utensils is a
big factor in achieving better cooking results. For the best in cookware, browse
the seventh floor of the Ongoing Department Store for an outstanding, and wide,
selection of utensils, pots and pans.
You'll find venerable brands like Silit, founded in 1920, which sells the
Apple Wedger (RMB 380)-its sharp, circular blade can cut an apple into eight
slices without any fuss. Or check out the brand's robust Garlic-Skin Remover
(RMB 90) that leaves hands clean and odor-free. In the mid-price range, Japanese
brand Kai Housewares provides kitchen utensils that are light, yet durable
enough for everyday use-they even carry tweezers (RMB 55) to help you remove
fish scales. And when you're in the mood for pasta bolognese, Kai's ground meat
maker (RMB 258) provides an almost labor free way to prepare a hearty Italian
meal.
