Collection of kitchenalia
This is a rather eclectic, but impressive collection of kitchenalia – if I do say so myself! My favourite piece is probably the small T.G. Green bowl which you use to separate the egg white from the yolk. Not being the most skilled of bakers, I think that something like this would prove rather handy. The vintage slotted spoon is perfect for getting your eggs out of boiling water (I used it last night and it worked a treat!), and the Tala ice cream scooper is a classic – I own a red version of this, and they really are very functional – and cool looking to boot! I’m not sure how often one would use a coconut shredder, but for interest sake alone it’s worth buying. I haven’t had a chance to try out the Kwik Whip mixer or the Kitchamajig, but with names like those they just have to be cool – although I’m a little dubious at how quick the Kwik Whip really is (the glass jar scares me a wee bit – I think the whipping action might do some damage). And last, but not least, we have the Tala pastry cutters. I think that they date to the 1950s, and are pretty worn, but they really are a lovely set. The box itself is quite special, and while the metal of the pastry cutters is a bit worse for wear, I’m sure that they’re still perfectly fuctional.
P.S. Sadly I managed to break the pie bird after taking this photo, so it’s no longer available.
