Wolf toaster – will this battleship last as long as it looks?
Not everyone can cook at a five-star Michelin restaurant. Not everyone can attend a prestigious culinary school. But that doesn’t mean your recipes aren’t review-worthy.
On November 13, we’d like to introduce you to new professional-grade tools and countertop appliances every home chef will covet.
Wolf appliances, the first choice in premium cooking for residential kitchens, will soon be available in smaller formats. Developed with the same passion for performance, design and durability, Wolf is coming to home chefs in Wolf Gourmet, a new line of small countertop appliances, cookware and cutlery.
During an exclusive “sneak peek” event, we’ll unveil the entire product line, which includes:
· A professional-grade blender that can handle precise blends for granitas, gazpacho and gelato alike.
· A selection of toasters that will make mornings a breeze;
· A 6-piece cutlery and block set to handle every kitchen task from the julienne to the chiffonade
· A 10-piece line of cookware designed to handle all degrees of cooking from simmering to searing, boiling to braising.
Our corporate chef will be on hand to demonstrate each of the products and to explain how the perfect technique – paired with the precise tool – can help at-home chefs create a culinary masterpiece.
So, please plan to join us on November 13, from 4:00 – 6:00 PM at Sub-Zero and Wolf’s New York Showroom, located on the 5th Floor at 150 East 58th Street.
Please let me know if you have any questions and if I can put you down on the RSVP list as attending.
Thanks!

HOW IT TURNED OUT
Wolf presented a new range of basic kitchen machine tools which in the retro solidity of their engineering and their rugged but still shapely form-follows-function design were enough to whet the appetite of all ambitious cooks, set to enable mastery of almost anything he or she might wish to make, not to mention being so well designed they will surely provide inspiration just by being at hand. But do you have room in your kitchen? If you don’t then you probably aren’t well heeled enough to buy them, since they are at the top end of the price range for quality appliances for the kitchen. They’ll all be out next year in the Spring, since we were shown final prototype builds which can be tweaked in the interim. We loved the four slot toaster, which like the oven range made by Wolf for professionals has the characteristic dark red knobs which go so well in a muted decorative way with the brushed steel of the rest of the machine. This is a professional level design made available for the demanding home cook, with its satisfyingly broad tabs for inserting and depressing the bread, and the inner gates to hold the entire slice steady as it browns, so that unlike most toasters it does not curl because only one end is firmly held. Just the look of it gives one the feeling of comfort and security that a well furnished kitchen yields, which often makes it the dining room of choice even in larger houses.
Then there is the blender which is so powerful at 20,000 revs a minute that it can liquefy and cook soup from raw materials all at one time, delivering a delicious hot puree in about six minutes from start to finish. Don’t do the cycle by mistake as you will find it boiling at the end.
Along with these beauties in a set of five balanced knives which combine the quality of German steel – tough and unbreakable – with Japanese – hard and able to be sharpened to so fine an edge they will cut paper in the air. The combination of virtues is achieved by tempering the steel at precisely the mid point of hardness between the two classic kinds of knife steel currently in use. The generous hardwood block is angled and given a lip at the bottom which allows recipe books, magazines or iPads to be balanced, rested and read on the side facing the chef.
Even though the prices are high these kitchen art-ifacts are substantial enough, built to professional standards as they are, to last long past the date when they will have repaid the buyer the extra investment compared with more modest versions. Perhaps they sacrifice decorative qualities for the classic form follows function look
