Bespoke Larders
by Majjie | Mon, 23/05/2011 - 08:21A larder cupboard is one of the most efficient ways of providing storage in the kitchen. Manufacturers of modular kitchens tend to provide a 500mm wide, tall unit at a standard 570mm depth, but that isn't a very useful size. My favourite size for a larder is 800mm wide but with a depth of just 350 – 400mm. Obviously it won't line up with other standard depth units but – if you can find space for one of these wide, shallow larders in your kitchen – it's a very useful size.

Four Range Cookers for Serious Cooks
by Majjie | Tue, 03/05/2011 - 20:14If you're a serious cook, then you'll appreciate a serious cooker which will allow you to make the most of your talents. Of course, that means you need a serious budget too and the cookers involved tend to be based on commercial models which are very sturdily built but tend not to have lots of features. That makes it even more important that you choose the right model for what you want.
