Never Wok


The other day, I was feeling the itch to bring out my 42” round bottom wok, to cook... and I thought I'll start to be a wokking wife, using it for every single cooking job... wa haha!!!!!
the first thing I did was, to cook pasta...
and the result?
Crap!! the pasta sauce that I've made, as I couldn't have a grasp of how well the different ingredient can be cooked just nice... I ended up having slightly hard ingredients, well, my pasta sauce is mainly different types of vegetables...

the worse thing is... which I've often forgotten, my sink is too small for such a big wok, therefore washing it, becomes a chore... yes, I actually like cleaning up dishes, just like I like doing my launderette,
washing my vision pots are easy, and what more to say, glassware (maybe some of you will disagree) is so much more easier than washing any other types of cookwares...

so, after my FIRST attempted (again) session with my wok, now, it's back to the cold storage...
and I've finally decided that I'm not a wok person,
it's just too painful to use, and I can't really cook nicely with it...
oh, in fact, I took it out, cos, I thought I want to do a nicely fried egg, and next day, nicely fried fish...
but then, in the end, the supposed nicely fried egg is not that nice (not the perfect sunny side up and whatsoever) and guess what,
the next day, I used back my IKEA 365 flat bottom fry pan to fry my fish...
che...! it turned out just nice... well, as what I did is shallow fry, so, my fish/egg is never really THAT crispy as those fried with more oil...
and after that,
today, I'm back to using my vision pots, vision cookware, to boil soup (the chinese way) or even I used it to cook/simmer pasta sauce or whatever stewed food,
all turned out nice, and just right...

vision, vision, all the way!
Never wok again!

My Visions

Visions! The pots!!! The Visions… hahahahahaha!!!
Did I tell you, I'm sooooo in love with these pots??
If you can read chinese language, you can go visit other countries' visions websites in worldkitchenasia.com,
For eg. Taiwanese visions, they share some different type of recipes… ie. chinese way…
Then, I learnt that, ooh… I could really try using visions to cook rice…
I've been using visions to boil soup, cook porridge, and stew…
But not really rice,
Then, after I tried… hm… not bad, it's just that, you gotta keep an eye on the fire… (if you happened to use gas stove…)

Anyway,
Now, I could almost use visions pots to do/cook anything, seriously, anything, except one last thing… ie. fry fish (the chinese way) and fry eggs… a wok still can still do a better job…
However, though, I can use a wok to fry fish, fry eggs, I don't really like to stand in front of the stove too long, inhaling all the oil… the smoke and so on…
That's why, VISIONS?? Is damn perfect for my cooking style…

I even use it to cook pasta, stir fry the pasta…

That's WHY… where I'm leading to is…
I've already had these… (which I got as a set from parkson)

 
You see?? They're kinda narrow…
And now, my wish list…


 
Haha!!! The biggest one's 5L… the one in the middle…
The smaller ones, you can use it to cook instant noodle, and boil eggs, and so on… or heat up milk… (if you wanna have hot chocolate)

The point about visions is…
You can just cook in it… and serve… and also,
Come on!! Glassware's the best… stainless steel? Tefal? All had "bad" comments about these products, and glass??? The most ori material, used to make these pots… no-smell, no chemical reaction and bla bla bla…

Gosh!! I really so damn love Visions man!

AND if you're an oven person?? Ooh… you can just chuck it into the oven… I just have to keep telling you, this piece of product, is damn good!
