Yeah!! Go Ching!



(click on the image to enlarge)

Wow I am soooo happy! I just found out that my favorite Chinese tv-cook Ching-He Huang launched, together with long time kitchen tool brand Typhoon, her own range of kitchen tools and tableware. They look so pretty. I definitely love the colours and that the design still has, even though very modern and up-to-date, a touch of Chinese culture in it. As what I can see from the picture, she has soup bowls, storage jars, mixing bowls, a wok, and some handy kitchen tools such as huge chop sticks which are used in the Asian kitchen a lot. I must say, I've tried cooking with those also and they are perfect for mixing noodles with sauce and vegetables but also to stir in the wok. 

What I also like is that they blend in perfectly with Typhoon's other products like this red retro colander. Can not wait to brighten up my kitchen!!!!

Jolly Joseph: too cool to be a kitchen tool!

Today I want to share a kitchen tool brand with you that I happen to like a lot. It is called Joseph Joseph and you can find their products on www.josephjoseph.com.
All their products are functional as well as well-designed. I guess that is their starting point when they design new things.


The most known tool that they designed is the Chop2Pot. It is a plastic cutting board which you can fold so the chopped food goes directly into the pan instead of part-in-the-pan / part-around-the-pan.



Then they also have something which they call: nesting set, and the one in the picture below is the Nest 8, as the set contains 8 products: mixing bowls, a sieve,  a strainer and measuring cups. The nice thing is that they all fit perfectly into each other so the only space it is taking in your cupboard is the size of the largest mixing bowl. And the bright colours make even the darkest of days more bright. These are made for happy cooking! 
     
                                                

They like to design efficient but useful products at Joseph Joseph. For example this strainer. Because of its square design it sits perfectly in the corner of the sink (unless you have a round one...duhh ;-)) And because of the handle it stands very stable. So no more messing with the strainer and spilled food.


 Following the line of the hygiene protocol used in the hospitality industry, Joseph Joseph is the first one to come up with a product to bring more hygiene in personal homes. With this set of cutting boards you always know which board to use. This will prevent cross contamination. The fact that it will look very fabulous on your countertop is of course a minor detail ;-)!


 And how about these very funky salad bowls with salad servers in the shape of hands! Also a great gift item!



I hope you like these products as much as I do! If you have something that you like... please care to share!!!!
