Keep me away fr HSN Today's -Wolfgang Puck

JoyFilled Warrior — Sun, 25 Aug 2024 00:20:19 GMT

WP Cookware is the Today's Special today. I looked last night, sorta "by accident"

I have a profound weakness for Wolfgang Puck Cookware (& much of his other Cookware/Food items.)

WP's HSN Cookware is incredible!! (If it's still the Tri-Ply). Actually, all HSN WP's items have always been extraordinary quality, imho,

(fyi, Keep checking feedback for WP's newly released Electronic items for up to a year, before yr purchase. Then terrific).

My original WP Pressure Cooker was totally Maintenance Free, & cooked, & cooked, & cooked. Many Potlucks!

I wont look - I wont look -

hmm I have to look. Seems my WP breadknife walked off.

I haven't bought anything by Wolfgang Puck in a long time, sidetracked by Curtis Stone. I am doing my best to look away too😁

My very first HSN purchase was a Wolfgang set. It has held up well, but I also like Curtis Stone.

Remember Ultrex from Art Krull and Command Performance on HSN? I have some pieces of each.

Agree ~ it is an absolutely beautiful set! I keep trying to justify me buying it. Hahaha

It does look like a dupe of the old Command Performance line.

That said, I've never bought any Celebrity Chef cookware.

I DID IT! I didnt buy any WP!!

(well, mostly because, I have sooo many Project's, 'Puter Windows opened here, my system was too slow to navigate thru HSN's WP items. But, I'll still take the accomplishment tho!)

Yet, Holidays are coming!! Food - Cooking - Eating

And WP usually makes at least 1-2 appearances before then, selling his great items.

Hmmm But, I'm getting ahead of myself....

I bought my first set of his cookware the weekend Hurricane Katrina hit. We were at the beach in MD and the weather hit us when he was on that Saturday. Too nasty to take the children/baby out so we stayed in and one of the few channels the place had come in clearly was HSN. I needed cookware and it was an GREAT price then, lol. Bottom line, still using it today and it looks FANTASTIC. I purchase this as wedding gifts for those who want cookware but don't know which brand to ask for and as a house-warming gift for those moving into their first place. Our sons each receive a set when the moving into their own place as they may have some things but cookware is not really on their mind, lol. This is a GREAT deal and definitely worth the money.

@JoyFilled Warrior

Huh ....... When I saw the WP set I wondered who would want THAT?

It doesn't have any nonstick surfaces ... and the handles must get hot as hell-o!

It was an easy pass for me.

Hi @Tinkrbl44

On Wolfgang's numerous HSN Cookware shows, he instructs as to how one uses his cookware, & get the same non-stick, but flavor-filled result.

Not sure if Professional Chef's generally use any non-stick, coated cookware, esp perhaps not risking it might flake. But if not they dont, WP might be sharing these Chef's effective, professional, non-stick'ing, (but not coated), secrets with us.

Also, WP's cookware seems to naturally "clean & buff like a charm" as well. Has carefully selected, layers of thick bottom too. Holds heat wonderfully, without sticking, (using WP's instruction).

My Mom's old Revere Ware worked wonderfully for her, (but did me no favors when growing up). So I welcomed Wolfgang's wonderful, professionally created & formulated cookware wholeheartedly.

I never had a problem with WP's cookware knobs being too hot. But maybe I was using a mitt automatically?? or maybe not; I dont recall.

WP used to offer a Universal Lid that was the bomb!

@Tinkrbl44 The handles do NOT get hot unless you place it in the oven. Never had an issue with sticking either probably because if I'm frying, I've placed olive oil or butter in it first to melt and prepare the pan.
