Le Creuset Screwpull: corkscrew and accessories to enjoy a good wine
You will agree with me that one of the things we have seen all our lives in the drawer of our parents' house is the corkscrew - that little kitchen utensil that seems to be immortal. In the same way, when you buy one, you hope that it will last the same time in your drawer, and that it responds to aspects as important as being easy to use, that it does not require force -and that it does not need skill either!- and that it takes cap in perfect condition. That is why it is important to know the options, and choose well.

Choose a teapot or kettle to enjoy a good tea
"If you think you can leave the water here heating up and go see what you kill time with, then you haven't learned anything from England," a friend teased me. He was absolutely right (about the water... regarding England, the truth is that it taught me many things): if you are going to prepare tea you should enjoy every moment, from the moment you put the water on to heat until you sit down to enjoy it. Do you know someone who drinks tea in a hurry?

Guide to buy your Le Creuset cocotte
Le Creuset iron cocottes are ideal for slow cooking and for preparing traditional recipes. We have often talked about it, but we have rarely commented on the different cocottes that exist, which are many, and I think it is interesting to talk about which cocotte is the most ideal for each recipe. The cocottes are versatile utensils by definition but it can be good to know what each of the cocottes that we have in the store is most appropriate for.
