Water jug

Water jug is  jug that holds water. And jug is a large bottle with anarrow mouth.

Jugs have been in use since the days of the Anglo-Saxons jugs have changed little in form over the centuries. Despite being in existence for a long time, the word jug did not become part of the English language until the 15th century. The Anglo-Saxons used jugs made of clay but they were hand shaped rather than being created on a wheel, which is the traditional method today. Rather than clay, the Vikings used jugs which were made of leather.
In Roman times jugs made of glass or clay were used to transport and store food and so jugs were an extremely important part of everyday life. The Roman government imported food from Spain and Africa and then distributed it freely to their citizens and established a distribution network which ensured that there weren’t food shortages.
The Romans also used amphorae. These were jugs made from terracotta with reinforced bases making them strong enough to store wine, olive oil or grapes. The Romans were famous for their aqueducts and so people used jugs, usually carrying them balanced on their heads, to collect water from the aqueducts and take them to their homes. The Romans were quite advanced in terms of their jug-making and their glass jugs often had the name of the contents of the jug stamped on the bottom.


corkscrew

name of item               : corkscrew
function                       : to help opened the wine bottle
how to clean                : use wet napkin

corkscrew is an instrument typically consisting of a metal spiral with a sharp point at one end and a transverse handle at the other, used for drawing corks from bottles.

The English were the first to seal their wine bottles and make wine storage possible. Before glass blowing technology was perfected, wine was unable to safely age, so it had to be drunk as soon as possible. Wine bottle corkscrews were naturally invented around that same time in order to remove the cork seal.
The earliest reference to a corkscrew was in late 1681 and was described as a “steel worm used for the drawing of corks out of bottles.” Many things were stored in bottles at that time, so this particular device might not have specifically been a wine bottle corkscrew. The exact inventor of the corkscrew is unknown, but it is largely believed to have derived from a similar device that would remove bullets stuck in rifles. However, the first known patent on the corkscrew dates back to 1795 by a Samuel Henshall of England. That was only the beginning. His design was followed by countless more.
From to the mid-1900s, several different types of bottle corkscrews were patented in several countries in Europe and North America. Carl Wienke of Germany invented the single-level corkscrew, nicknamed “The Butler’s Friend,” and is one of the more well-known and still exists today. Other popular designs of the time include the British A1 Heeley Double Lever and the American patented “The Walker Bell.”  Edwin Walker’s design pushed down upon the bottle, which allowed the cork to lift out. This type of wine bottle corkscrew is still considered one of the best ways to remove older or more fragile corks. With all of these different designs and patents, it’s no wonder that we have a wide variety of different wine bottle corkscrews today.


cheese melter

name of item               : cheese melter
function                       : to help melting the piece of big cheese
how to clean                : use dry napkin

cheesemelter is a cooking device used primarily in commercial restaurant kitchens. Powered by direct flame or electricity, these long, toaster-like appliances allow cooks to put finishing touches on dishes, especially those topped with shredded cheese.

It is closely related to the Salamander broiler though it offers more fine control for browning a dish at the end of the cooking cycle. It is also less expensive and easier to use than a salamander.
A Cheesemelter is commonly mounted over and to the back of a range. It also provides heat from above that is focused downward, but the temperature output of a Cheesemelter is typically much lower than that of a Salamander. Instead of a cooking grate and grease pan, the typical Cheesemelter will feature something more like an oven rack with a crumb tray. Producing much less heat, Cheesemelters are commonly used to brown au gratin dishes and melt cheese on nacho chips or open-faced sandwiches. They are sometimes used to warm and hold plates.
As manufacturers work to improve the design and versatility of their products, many Cheesemelters now feature higher temperature outputs and increased functionality. Additionally, at least one manufacturer offers a European style Salamander where the heat source is lowered to the food, rather than vice versa. When deciding on which is right for you, by whatever name, be sure to check the unit’s capabilities against your intended application. Find out, before you buy, whether the unit will perform the cooking and/or finishing functions that your menu requires.
