Customer Reviews of Taylor Commercial Digital Fork Thermometer,1482
Customer Rating:  Summary: Good performer - great value Comment: This reasonably priced fork-thermometer is easy and intuitive to use, versatile, quick-responding, and accurate (I tested it against a standard). It has its heat-sensitive element in the tip of only one tine (not documented, but that's where it is) and, knowing that, it can be used to probe and measure the temperature of a wide variety of foods - or other stuff. Customer Rating: Summary: Tossed out my expensive model for this Comment: Unlike the Sharper Image one I'd been fighting with for 3 years...this model takes temps quick. Good readable light. Simple design and cooking internal temps on the back. Not complex with readings for every food you could cook and you don't have to burn your arm hair waiting for the temp to come up. Very good product. Hand wash but why would you expect anything else. Customer Rating:  Summary: Hand wash only,. and careful when you do. Comment: Only for the meticulous. I bought this as a gift. Unfortunately when it was hand washed (not dishwasher safe) the handle must have gotten wet, because it stopped working. Customer Rating: Summary: Too big and slow to be useful Comment: I used this for years, and thought it was pretty good. Then I got a CDN Proaccurate Stainless Digital Thermometer, and realized how wrong I had been. Never having had an instant-read thermometer before, I thought it was normal to sit there for almost a minute waiting for the temperature to stabilize. Of course, that minute is a big deal if you've taken your steak off the heat and then have to put it back on. Also, the tines are big, and you have to get a fair amount of them embedded into the meat to get an accurate temperature. You wind up putting big holes in the meat, which then leak a ton of juices. And for thinner steaks, it's hard to navigate in at an angle that lets you get enough of the tines in the middle. For those reviewers who suggest it's great to have only one utensil: you really don't want to flip steak with a fork anyway. Every time you puncture the steak, you're losing juices. You're much better off with a grill spatula, and a fast thermometer with a small probe. Customer Rating: Summary: Doesn't fit what I need. Comment: I wanted it for use in the kitchen - it is way too big and bulky for that purpose. I am not happy with it as it doesn't fit anyplace in my kitchen or in any of my kitchen drawers unless I lay it sideways - then it takes up too much room. More Reviews Make sure your food is cooked to perfection with a digital meat fork that never fails to read the correct temperature. Plus, it's waterproof for easy cleaning.

Choosing Appliance -> Fridge / Freezers Added features such as ice making and drinks dispensers can all add to the appeal of certain models. Ice making is an option on many American style fridge-freezers, sometimes available without opening the door, as are cold water dispensers. Zoned models offer several storage areas, all at different temperatures, designed to keep a variety of foods fresh for longer. Most manufacturers now offer adjustable shelf heights and storage units which simplify food storage. Choosing Appliance -> Taps If you want a sink with large bowl dimensions to cope with big-pan washing-up, it is worth considering a tap with a pull-out or pull-down spray rinse. This gives you water anywhere you need it around the bowl area. Taylor Commercial Digital Fork Thermometer,1482
Kitchen tips -> Sharpening Knife A dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp one, because you apply to it more pressure and force to cut through foods. It can easily slip out of place as you use it and you can harm yourself. Keep your knives in good working condition by sharpening according to their use and time. There's no specified amount of time, because knives vary as much as their use; although, you can easily determine if they need sharpening by the way they cut/slice foods. If a knife can slice through a tomato and tear the skin, then it needs sharpening. If, on the other hand, the cut is clean and quick without any tears, then it needs not be sharpened. |
