undefined review of Demeyere Industry 5 24 cm / 9.5" 18/10 Stainless Steel Frying Pan image 1 out of 1

Beric M.

First: big thanks to Jed for sorting out the mess I made of this order!! The 24cm Demeyer stainless is the perfect complement to the 28cm Demeyer and my 24cm De Buyer carbon steel (all from Cook Culture). I like them for their quality and even cooking, and the fact they do not warp unlike that well-known stainless competitor.

We are so happy with the purchase of our Jura coffee machine from cook culture. Jed took his time to explain the different models and which one would be best suited to our lifestyle. Thank you to everyone at cook culture!

Sarah D.

I purchased a whole Demeyer set ten years ago from Cook Culture and truly love it. I have put it through its paces on the stove and it has held up beautifully. I wanted another smaller pot and chose the stew pot to compliment the single handed version. The quality continues to be evident among all the Demeyer pieces. The heat transfer is smooth and consistent and performs exceptionally on my induction stove. Highly recommend not only this piece but the whole Demeyer series!

undefined review of Field Cast Iron No.8 Skillet image 1 out of 1

Mary L.

I was used to a Lodge cast iron frying pan but decided to buy myself a new Field pan for this past Christmas as it looked much nicer and I had been good so I deserved it. 🤣. It is much smoother and is very easy to keep clean especially if you’re using the chainmail scrubber and the right seasoning wax. It heats fast and evenly on my induction plate and cleanup is a joy. Food rarely sticks and I am very happy with my purchase. I enjoy shopping at Cook Culture as Jed and staff are friendly, knowle...

Chef Mara is an excellent and extremely talented teacher. I look forward to taking another class from her in the near future. The classes are good value. I learn a lot, especially about the techniques of cooking. I have fun and enjoy meeting the other attendees.

undefined review of Stargazer 12" Cast Iron Skillet image 1 out of 1

Kevin D.

The 12" Stargazer machined cast iron frypan is the best I have ever owned! It was virtually non stick right out of the box and improved after just a couple of stove-top seasonings and it has got even better with use! Mine has never seen detergent washing, just very hot water and some very light small chainmail use. Post seasoning with Cook-Culture Seasoning Paste is all that is has required. It is even out performing my "de Buyer" Mineral B Pro 12" pan. If it is a premium cast iron pan you are...

Robert N.

The first surprise was how heavy this pan is. It is a big pan and I am glad I didn’t get the 12 inch as this is great for our needs. Secondly it really has been non stick after following the seasoning recommendations. I am so glad to be done with coated pans. I would like to buy the 8 inch pan now. This pan is heavy duty and very nice to work with.

Michael H.

I'll have to add a photo later but already tested it out with making homemade caramel and it really made it a lot easier on me. Like most I have burnt a few batches but it felt like I had more time to respond with this saucier compared to the cheap pots I grew up with. I really like how forgiving this saucier is and easy to clean, would highly recommend to anyone that really enjoys cooking and experimenting in the kitchen.

Michael H.

First thing I noticed when cooking with the pot was that it was far more forgiving on maintaining temperature with my cooking and had a far more even heat distribution when I took temp measurements. It is an absolute pleasure to cook with, easy to clean, really like how the handles stay cool and look forward to getting more just like it for my kitchen. Even been joking with my family how this will probably still be being used long after I'm gone by my grandkids with how sturdy it is. I would hig...

Sheri H.

I had just purchased a few Wusthof knifes and needed a quality cutting board. I researched everywhere and finally came across a great youtube channel "Cook Culture"where Jed demonstrated how to look after your cutting board and I was sold. I purchased the Boos board and can't say enough good things about it to my friends. This board is the best I have ever owned. I am sure it will pair with my knives for years to come. I am so impressed with the customer service and knowledge base provided by ...

undefined review of Escali Arti Digital Glass Kitchen Scale image 1 out of 1

Mary L.

I Love the Escali scale. I had a good scale before this one but it was smaller and when doing a Tare measurement the bowl would cover up the numbers. I like the “hold” feature too. It’s available in many colours. Love shopping at Cook Culture; it’s my favourite kitchen shop and Jed is very knowledgeable and the service is excellent!

undefined review of Created Co. - Camp Mug image 1 out of 3

Mary L.

I have another thermal mug that is working well except the lid is too loose and doesn’t seal well. It also is a bit thicker at the top edge. Here comes the “Created Co. Camp Mug” which has an awesome sealing lid and a nice thin top edge. It works really well with my favourite coffee press the Aeropress. Of course a splash of Baileys puts the whole coffee experience over the top. 😉

I’m having great success with sour dough baking due to the purchase of Escali scale which has taken the guess work out of metric recipes. I now bake with confidence.

Such a lovely dish! I picked it up for special events and also just so I can cook more casseroles. The red is beautiful and it’s a nice medium-smaller size. I’m more than happy with it!

I now have the 11" and the 9 1/2 pans, I love them both 😍 As long as the pans are seasoned properly they are non-stick. They both have a great weight to them and will last a lifetime with proper care. Thanks Cooks Culture 🍳

undefined review of Marcato Pasta Drying Rack image 1 out of 3

Lorelei K.

I'm a novice pasta maker and have used many different ways to dry my pasta. I finally broke down and bought this one. It works like a dream! Plenty of arms to hang my pasta and the way it's designed, it has a very small footprint while it's in use. And the arms swing around to create an even smaller profile for storing. Definitely recommend!

I own two of these "de Buyer" Mineral B Pro pans, 24 cm and 32cm, purchased at different times on-line, from CookCulture. I am very pleased with not only the performance of these pans but dealing with this company. Jed's videos pertaining to seasoning, post seasoning and cleaning of carbon steel pans are very informative and his seasoning paste works very well indeed. I would highly recommend acquiring this paste and also their Fine Chainmail scrubber. CookCulture and Jed are excellent to deal ...

Always a great time. No matter what skill level you are there’s something to learn and/or approve upon. Highly recommend any class. Will definitely make some of these dishes at home

William L.

Any Demeyere Atlantis 7 pan is an investment. But it's a good one. I wish that I had found this brand years ago. I love my huge 32cm multifunction pan and my small 20cm skillet, which is perfect for side dishes, eggs, and any one-person meal.

My wife and I enjoyed Chef Matt’s healthier meals cooking class! In fact, we’ve already made 3 of the dishes twice since then for 2 separate family dinners to raving reviews, and we are starting to put our own twists on the recipes. 10/10 we would go again, and we’ve been eyeing up Chef Mara’s pasta classes!

I’ve only seasoned twice as yet but am pleased with the results and my progress. It transmits heat very well and my learning curve on an induction cooktop and with this pan is steep. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Howard S.

We followed the excellent video that Jed has in YouTube about seasoning. We did the five days in a row seasoning and it worked like a charm. Cooked a few omelettes and no sticking at all. This is now our second Mineral-B pan from Cook Culture and we couldn’t be happier. Ditto for they’re amazing after sales help and service! Howard.

I was hoping that a Field skillet would provide a similar cooking experience to my vintage Griswolds and Wagners. I'm very pleased with the light weight, finish and smooth cooking surfaces of my Field No. 8. It definitely holds its own with the old iron.

undefined review of Staub 10" Pure Grill Cast Iron image 1 out of 1

Kathryn P.

This great little pan enlivens frying by creating stylish grill marks while providing channels of space between searing points to achieve beautifully cooked, juicy meats and veggies. This pan is solid but not annoyingly heavy like other cast iron beasts. It is a convenient way to grill without going out in the freezing cold weather, dealing with BBQ’s and their covers! So happy to have purchased this grill pan from Cook Culture!

Detlef H.

I received the de Buyer Mineral B professional prompt as advertised. I am very happy with this pan and very happy with my decision to go non-Teflon! Following Jed's advice I applied 3 oven seasons at one hour at 450 F over three nights. The pan has turned a golden copper-ish hue. I also apply a thin coat of Cook Culture beeswax after each cooking/deglazing and het to just the smoke point and then allow to cool. The results are wonderful. I made French toast in eggy/milky batter and the slices ju...

I got this pot yesterday and as per the instructions before first use I boiled milk and let it simmer 5 minutes. This went well but it took some effort to get the burnt milk off the bottom. Once this was done though I made myself some cream of mushroom soup and this was really easy to clean. It does take longer to cook or heat up food as this pot is not designed to go above medium. You are recommended to put the stove on low for a few minutes to allow the pot to heAt up slowly After that pu...

undefined review of Fellow Clyde Kettle image 1 out of 1

Denise M.

I love how modern yet Asian it looks. The handle is very comfortable and the kettle overall is very easy to use, hold and pour from. I boil water on the smallest element but have to move it to the bigger element to hear its harmonic whistle-which I’m not sure is really that harmonic. I love the Clyde kettle regardless because of how wonderful it handles, how quickly it boils water and its simple yet elegant design. Did I mention that I love it? :) Thanks Jed for an amazing product!

Camille T.

I have used this to make rye bread and also Olive bread since I got it 2 weeks ago. The 1st time I didn't buttered enough but the 2nd time I really butter did in accordance with what the book said that came with the Pan. It gives you a nice crust and bakes evenly throughout.

I looked everywhere for a kettle that was subtle, a bit artistic looking and held lots of water. This one is the best! It’s really beautiful and great quality. I love that I don’t need a hot pad to touch the handle and the whistle is really cute-reminds me of a train but two toned. This would make a great gift too!

Helen Y.

I received my new 4.75L Staub about 2 weeks ago and so far, it has been my ‘go to’ pot. I have the Staub braiser which I used to use just as often but it’s now taken a back seat to the new Staub. I love that this new pot has the taller sides so that it helps to prevent splattering. I was a bit hesitant about buying the ‘B’ stock but the tiny imperfection is not even an issue. It’s a beautiful piece and the white is stunning!

Great class! Got to learn great tips and eat delicious food. Unfortunately you only get to participate in making 1 item in the class due to size snd time constraints but I was able to get pick of my choice and you get to eat everything afterwards as a group.

I love my new deBuyer Mineral B 9.5" omelette pan. For decades I've been using a small (7") deBuyer pan along with a large (12") cast iron skillet and decided the time to splurge on something in-between was long overdue. I could hardly wait to use my new pan! But, I did; and after lovingly and patiently seasoning it over a number of days to a beautiful bronze patina it's become my go-to, all-purpose pan. I would also highly recommend Cook Culture's Beeswax Seasoning paste. Having used it to sea...

These pans are excellent, but even more excellent is the support from Cook Culture. The staff in Vancouver are awesome, and the online resources (videos) are great. I started with a small de Buyer pan and have now replaced all of our non-stick cookware. Yes, it requires a bit more work to keep these in prime condition as compared to Teflon. But not much. Initial seasoning in the oven as shown in Jed’s videos works well for the regular and ‘pro’ pans.

Monique O.

I am in the process of getting rid of all my non stick cookware. I only have one left. I am replacing them with stainless steel cookware. I purchased the Demeyere industry 32 cm frying pan from Cook Culture. I had company coming for supper one evening, I made 80 meatballs and decided to use two pans as shown in the picture. The Demeyere was cooking a lot faster than the non stick pan and the meatballs cooked in the Demeyere pan were more moist inside than the one cooked in the non stick cookware...

Jed... I purchased this large DeBuyer steel pan some time ago from you... and I loved it so much that I just bought another one for my cabin. I use it several times every week, and love the way it distributes the heat from my gas stove so evenly, and also am impressed with how easy it is to clean! Here's a photo of it in use cooking a variety of mushrooms for a French dish!
