tesco did not sell such things?

Options
think tesco sells everything or maybe not. :confused:


1. fish descaler - remember read somewhere that someone bought a fish descaler in tesco, i couldn't find it in a few stores including extra. have u ever seen one? ask in stores and staffs don't have a clue. how did the staffs behind fish counter remove fish scales?

2. microwave browning plate - think it is kindof common but tesco does not sell it. i know i know lakeland must have it but where can i find an affordable one?

3. long steel knife sharperner - not the small scissor shape one or the electrical one in tesco, it is the type that gordon ramsey uses all the time, like a long steel stick and cool looking. remotely remember saw it in a store once but went back to all the usual stores i shop and couldn't find any.


any ideas?

  • you can remove fish scales with a knife by scraping towards the head end while you hold tail end bit messy but works

    can't help with other 2 i got my steel (knife sharpener) when i was at catering college could try asking anyone you might know who works in pubs/hotel etc as they will prob know somewhere they can get one or try a local butcher as they use them
    Lead us not into temptation...

    just tell us where it is and we'll find it....

    try looking at ebay for the steel
    they have a few - various prices.
    i dont know how much you are prepared to pay - there is a james martin on for £11.50 inc p&p
    Hope this helps!

    Try freecycle, it is great for getting obscure items, and it's free!:)
