This product is the bee's knees! I had been using grape seed oil for decades to season my iron and cast iron cookware but after using this product the grape seed oil will only be used for cooking. Thank you Jed and Cook Culture.

I have a larger Mineral B skillet which is great. So I wanted a smaller one to replace an old stainless steel skillet I have had for years. After the recommended seasoning in the oven, it not only looks good, but will become non-stick after a few uses and seasonings. In the meantime, a little cleanup with a chain mail scrubby does the trick.

While I chose the pan for its colour (black), I love the pan for its easy of use and cleaning. Nothing sticks when used properly. If I happen to overcook and food does stick/remain, it's easily cleaned. After cleaning and drying, the pan retains its shine and polished look. I am very happy with the product and even purchased as second (because sometimes you need to double the quantity!).

We are starting to use it so much we are going to get a larger one also! Seasoning was a snap! We use chain mail on it along with the seasoning wax! Would highly recommend!

Efficient shipping and even better product! This knife is amazing to use and feels good in the hand. Highly recommend as a store to buy from online or in person, and a product to use if you're looking for a good chefs knife.

Purchased another one as a gift for a friend. They love it as well. Proudly displaying it on their counter and they enjoy the fact that they can use two different types of salt.

A high-quality kettle. The insulated walls keep the water warm and the lack of piping inside will make it easy to keep clean. The spout is a good shape for pouring without drips. The volume is excellent - enough to make a large pot of French press coffee in the morning. The fact that it's very light when empty is good because the volume is quite large. The 5 year guarantee is what I appreciate - I've had too many kettles not work after a year or two.

I have really appreciated the tips I get from Cook Culture on maintaining my cast iron frying pan and the chain mail scrub has made the biggest difference. My pan is staying in great shape and is easy to clean.

The scent of the lavender-lime Sapadilla laundry soap is amazing. I love that I can come and refill my containers at Cook Culture, skipping the plastic. The environmentally friendly component is a big factor that keeps me coming back.

I love this sauce pot, it’s the perfect size for cooking sauces ie spaghetti sauce and stews, also ideal for braising chicken and beef and fish. It is easy to use and the heat distribution is excellent. Cleans up beautifully and looks like new after each use. This is the best cookware I have had and well worth the price.

I have been thinking about getting a milk frother but the models I was looking at were very large. Since I didn’t want something that took up a lot of space on my countertop, I chose to go with the Zwilling Enfinigy milk frother. I bought the item in the Vancouver store so didn’t really do any research on the product but can say I am very happy with it. I have used it many times since I purchased it and find it is very easy to use and cleanup is a snap. The machine operates very quietly and in ...

I purchased 2 Mepal 3 pcs cutlery set and brought them on our trip to Hawaii. My daughter and I used them on our trips to the beaches and hike and came in very handy . The packaging was super easy to use and convenient and cutlery set is solid durable and quality. Jeb was the associate who helped us out at the store in Coal harbour was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Absolutely love this. It is our 2nd Debuyer pan, and it’s great! It’s perfect for omelettes, pancakes, etc. and it doesn’t stick. Seasoning is quite easy, which makes it even better if.

I prefer white dishes for food - my meals don't get lost on decorations. Some years ago ago, I discovered the Rosenthal Loft line (probably on sale) at Cook Culture in Vancouver and have been refreshing shattered or chipped bowls and plates ever since from time to time. They take a lot of abuse but dropping them on stone floors is a test most makes will fail. I've found some lines of dinnerware are discontinued after a time and it's difficult to find replacements. So it's good to find a vendor...

We really missed the one we passed on to our children, so it was really great to acquire one again for ourselves! It is the perfect tool for fine slicing no matter how great your knife skills may be!

We have bought these towels several times before and they wash really well and do not leave any lint or film on any find stemware when drying. Great value, looks and quality.

I love it!!! This was my first purchase of a Demeyere saucepan. It will not be my last. It is easy to see from the quality that it will probably last me for my lifetime. The pot is the perfect size for making sauces and it works brilliantly on my induction cooktop.

My husband and I purchase all of our hand soap and laundry soap at Cook Culture. We love the subtle fresh fragrances and there is more then one to choose from. We can always find something else we need/want while we browse and our dogs, Harvard and Max receive generous loving from the people that work there.

I'm very happy with the Field #8 skillet. It came when promised, its manufacture and finish is superb. The (relatively) light weight is great for my wife. It works well, heats up faster than I thought it would but still learning. It contrasts with a griddle I got (from another source) made by Finex, that I had to return because it did not sit flat on a ceramic glass stovetop. It has now become our go-to skillet.

A wonderful product. Smells nice, and remarkably easy to apply. Truth be told, my first attempt of camdmelising onions in a new de Buyer pan didn't go so well after 6 (stove top) applied layers, but I believe that is my fault for not entirely removing the factory coating. Apart from seasoning in the bottom of the pan, the sides and underside held up remarkably and look fantastic.

I love the size of this pan and I love that it has a helping handle as well, even though it is not extremely heavy. It’s just very handy. I’ve made eggs, both fried and scrambled, I’ve made bacon, I’ve made potstickers… All successful. Minimal sticking in a brand new pan. I’ve been using carbon steel for years, and have noticed different hotspots in the pan. This is not the case with this pan thus far. It’s very even and it’s heat distribution. I look forward to many years of use.

I bought 2 trivets and use mainly for hot handles of cast iron and carbon steel pans. Also for handling baking sheets out of the oven. It is a well-made product with material which is pliable offering good grip, and easy to clean. And handy to place under hot pans on the counter or table. Our previous cloth pot holders lasted for 15 years; I'm sure these will last for 30 years.

Since the first lockdown, I had been playing around with making my own bread, but success with yeast breads was elusive. My flatbread game was much stronger, but rolling the dough by hand was so time-consuming. I tried this with flour tortillas and it really sped the process up substantially and the tortillas come out with a much rounder and even in shape. I still like to take the dough out of the press and go over 2-3 times with the rolling pin, but I think this depends on what the purpose of t...

Was looking for a high quality pan that was light weight, and couldn't have found a better option. Cooks evenly and washes up without any effort to a perfect shine every time. Will definiltey buy more of this brand.

I am never disappointed by my experience at Cook Culture. In these days of having to make sure you have your own shopping bag this is a great one … easily fits in a purse, just the right size and cleanable.

Love this peeler! I use it on about all vegetables…and really love it to pull citrus peels for garnishes when making cocktails. Very precise…pulls a very thin peel, with little pith (citrus). The typical comfort ane control you would expect from OXO Good Grips is part of the package as well. Great product.

the perfect tool for scrubbing my cast iron - just add a bit of hot water and salt, scrub with this tool, reapply a light coat of canola oil, and the skillet is like brand new. Helped me get over my fear of cast iron :)

I have been looking for blue linen napkins for awhile and these are perfect. Lovely and soft, I just wish I could have bought more (there were only 4 blue ones left in your stores).

I have used one for years and would be lost without it. I have arthritis in both hands now and lost my strength as I age. I bought this new one for me and gave my old one to an elderly friend. Best invention and well worth the price. Obtw its hard to find a good quality product like this so big cudos for Cook Culture hurray!!

Length is longer than my old santoku but I got acquainted with it fairly quickly. As you can see in the picture, the logo started to fade already but overall a good knife for everyday kitchen prepping

The chain mail is the perfect cleaning tool for cast iron. Jed’s videos on how to use it were great and resulted in me knowing exactly how to use it.

I haven't used the machine a great deal yet, but what I have done has really impressed. I am very pleased that it seems to have all the power in the world, which is definitely what I was wanting over the machine I've been using for years and, being somewhat lazy, I really like the self-clean feature! Also, very impressed with your on-line store service. Makes life very easy. Thanks. M. Cameron.

My how things change when you’re busy doing other things! It had never crossed my mind that my first piping bag, now 50 years old, could be updated. I’ve always hated cleaning and sanitizing the old one and now have a new silicone job that rinses as clean as a whistle in no time at all. As usual, the service people at the Victoria store were ever-ready to help but welcomed browsing too. How about the string of helpful videos on Facebook as well! Check it out. Frank

I have searched far and wide for an oil cruet that actually works. I’ve had numerous vessels have the top pop off while pouring, leakage or dripping while pouring causing a mess, cracking, vessels impossible to clean, squeeze bottles that look awful, but my Emile Henry oil cruet is none of the above. Looks great on my counter and protects my EVOO from light exposure. Love it!

I bought this as a 2nd mandoline, half the price of my other one, which I took to my winter home. It may be half the price but I like it twice as much - at least for the simple act of slicing.

This spatula works perfectly with the deBreyer frying pans. The curved corner fits perfectly into the curve of the pan. Being thin stainless steel it is sharp enough to turn eggs, pancakes etc. perfectly without damaging the pans seasoned surface. Highly recommended.

Good pan. The texture is quite rough but that's as expected for a Lodge pan. There is a high spot that's going to catch on my fish spatula but I'll just sand that down, it's still going to out live me and that sanded down spot is going to make it unique.
