Helen's Asian Kitchen 7-Inch Spider Skimmer Review

While I have to commend the company on it's speedy shipping the product itself is incredibly cheap.
The wooden handle on the one I received had little cracks and lots of splinters. I actually got a good size splinter in my hand from simply unwrapping it!
Even the wire mesh has some sharp edges (which should have been smoothed down so as to prevent the possibility of cutting yourself).
Judging by the quality I doubt if it will last long and quite honestly I don't think this should sell for more than a couple of dollars...certainly not nearly $10 for something that looks like it will fall apart after a few uses.

Helen\'s Asian Kitchen stainless steel strainer featrues a 7-inch diameter stainless steel bowl that won't rust and is dishwasher safe. The bamboo handle is non-conductive so it does not transfer heat. Discover what cooks in the orient have known for centuries. The web-like design of the bowl quickly whicks away oils, water and broth. This means, when frying, the strainer quickly disipates the oil away from the food leaving a crisp, crunchy coating. When pulling food out of boiling water or broth, the open, web shape leaves the liquid behind.

Taylor Classic Candy and Deep-Fry Analog Thermometer Review

I have been using this for quite a while for candy making. Although some of the writing has washed off, I can still read the indentations and so continue to use it. Of all of the thermometers I own (and I have several), it is the most accurate. Candy thermometers should always be tested before each use by putting them in boiling water and adjusting your final temperature by any +- they show from true 212F or 100C boiling temp. This one has never needed any adjustments; others have been off 6 to 8 degrees. Because of this, its strength (no exposed glass bulb to break) and its ease in cleaning(dishwasher-proof), this is the only candy thermomoter I recommend when teaching candy making.

The secret to deep-fat frying lies in preheating the oil to the proper temperature before adding the food; for this, a thermometer is essential.This model from Taylor meets our criteria for a deep-fat thermometer: clear markings measure from 100F to 400F, its 12 1/2" long, stainless-steel frame is sturdy and features a metal clip that will hold the thermometer safely to the side of your pan up to one inch thick. Also, works well for candymaking, featuring markings for thread, soft ball, hard ball, soft crack and hard crack stages.
