Product Information

It switched it to off but it remained ignited so I had no option but to throw it out of the door and let it burn itself out in the garden. Spicy Dew Blow Torch: Nearly identical in design to the EurKitchen torch, this model performed similarly well in testing. A kitchen torch can be used for achieving torch hei, searing sous vide steak, charring vegetables, caramelizing the sugar crust on torrijas, topping on crème brûlée, and more.

This has an adjustable anti-flare flame that works at all angles and fuel level window so you can see how much gas you have left. The torch definitely browned marshmallows easily, though I recommend bringing the torch flame down a bit for delicate marshmallows and meringue.

The worst performers, like the Bernzomatic ST2200T Micro Butane Torch, barely produced a crust at all, and by the time I got acceptable browning, the meat was dry and the flavor was slightly bitter.

The flame neck is angled up and away from your hand, unlike other torches that are at a right angle, closer to your hand. What we didn't like: Starting and extinguishing the flame requires both hands, as you need to hold the gas canister in place while turning the gas nozzle on the back with your other hand.

Gently 'kiss' the sugar with the tip of the flame, moving the flame around to heat evenly, just until the sugar starts to flow. The gadget (below) is perfect for caramelising, browning, adding a crispy layer to desserts, melting cheese or removing tomato skins. For example, if you burned the same volume of propane and butane at room temperature, you might observe that the butane would supply roughly 12% more energy. Use the tip of the light blue part of the flame for browning (at least this is the case when you are using the smaller brulee torch). This culinary torch has two adjustment knobs that allow you to adjust flame size as well as flame shape, a feature lacking in a lot of other kitchen torches.

Those thick waves meant the work of the oven was done — any more heat and we would be eating scrambled eggs for dessert. Though there is no trigger, which means the torch is on continuously, you never have to get near the flame to use this torch, making this one of the safer to use torches on the market.

Unlike other butane-powered kitchen torches, the Iwatani torch is actually just the torch head, which attaches directly to a butane canister. After testing, Irvin submitted feedback about what he liked and didn’t like about each product and rated each one on the following features: Design, Performance, Capacity, and Overall Value.Despite being small and lightweight, the torch feels like it’s made out of solid heavy-duty material, never feeling like a cheap toy but rather a small compact professional tool. For enthusiastic cooks and bakers that love the power, the precise, pressure-regulated flow of gas, which yields a consistent flame when tilted at most angles, the Bernzomatic TS800 is the best choice. When I tested this, I found the one-touch piezo ignition is easy to use, and the included stabilizing plate means you can safely place the canister down on the table once you’re done or remove the torch head and have a place to put it as well. Using Mrs B’s very own recipe from her book Cook Up A Feast, I decide to cook 12 creme brulees, half under the grill, and half I’d blowtorch as normal. Set aside for two hours until the pan is cold, then bang it against the worktop so the caramel cracks off the base in big pieces.

However, adjusting the torch power is a little awkward as it requires both hands, and the placement of the knob, though easy to access, is a little uncomfortable.
