Judge BioChef Utensils & Natural Ceramic Frying Pan Competition – Closed

Judge Competition

I was recently sent the new Judge BioChef Kitchen Utensil Range to try out. It’s made from a revolutionary combination of corn-based bioplastic, nylon and a smidge of silicone. The BioChef range includes slotted turner, turner, spaghetti fork, slotted spoon, ladle and serving spoon; all the kitchen essentials. The key points of note are as follows:

  • Eco friendly Kitchenware – 100% biodegradable handle, renewable, sustainable & recyclable.
  • Heat resistant heads up to 210°
  • Silicone soft grip insert, for comfort with wet or dry hands
  • Suitable for Non-Stick pans
  • Easy to Clean – Dishwasher safe

Green, corn starch, environmentally friendly

My first impression of the range was that it is well designed and I love its green credentials. It is vital for the longevity of your non-stick pans to use plastic and not metal utensils. I cringe every time I see a chef on TV using metal in a non-stick pan. The spoons, turners and ladle are all slightly smaller than I have been used to but I actually found this a welcome change. When I was turning some new potatoes that I was frying, the job was made so much easier with the Judge BioChef turner as it has a really good sharp angle on the edge. Sometimes I end up just pushing a potato around for ages before actually managing to get some leverage to it. I also found the ladle a really good size when I was transfering a pie filling from my pan to a pie dish the other day!

I have dish washed my utensils and they have all come out looking the same way as they went in. I only noticed the other day that they should be washed on the top rack so will do this in future! So if you care about looking after your non-stick pans then I think this range of BioChef utensils from Judge are superb.

The Judge BioChef utensils retail for around £4.20 each.

Eco-friendly, safe, ptfe free, pfoa free

Eco-friendly, green

Next I received a Judge Natural Ceramic Frying Pan to try out. Here’s what Judge say about them:

“Judge Natural frying pans are lined with an eco friendly matt grey ceramic coating (Whitford’s acclaimed Fusion). Stylishly designed, with thick thermic bases making them suitable for all hob types, with stay cool textured phenolic handles, the Judge Natural frying pan range delivers environmentally whilst being effortlessly functional too. Judge Naturals are free from all chemicals associated with traditional non-stick cookware, i.e. its PTFE- and PFOA-free and is able to withstand tremendous heat – up to 280°C – without the risk of blistering or cracking.”

My first impression of this pan was that it wasn’t the prettiest pan I’d ever seen but once I started using it I was blown away by it. The thick thermic base really transmits the heat extremely quickly and evenly.  It’s easy to clean with a quick wash in soapy water with a sponge and it has become my favourite pan to use for everything from omelettes to pancakes.

The 26cm Judge Natural frying pan I received has an rrp of £60.

    I’d make a family size cheese, mushroom and bacon omelette, with potatoes in it as well … or maybe some pancakes!?!

    Depending on how deep it is, i’d either go for a Chorizo Risotto, or use it to start making a chorizo and chicken lasagne I saw a recipe for the other day (using tortillas instead of lasagne sheets)

    When I say ‘I’d make’, what I really mean is my mum would probably make some tasty Moroccan couscous with a Spanish omelette… Mmm

    I think a nice new pan gives me an excuse for cooking a slightly unhealthy full English, a rare treat. Back to more healthy omelettes and fish afterwards.

    It would have to be a big fry up – bacon, sausage, egg, haggis. black pudding and tattie scones

    I’ve seen a few recipes where the frying pan had to go in the oven but the handle on mine won’t withstand oven temps, so I’d love to win this one. Now I try to think about it though, I can’t remember any of the darn recipes! Vohn x

    Perfect for Pancakes next week – as my pans are more stick than non-stick 🙂

    Would be a brilliant update for my kitchen – sassy and special – for perfect cooking !

    Korean chicken stir fry – ginger, soy sauce, a touch of maple syrup, and some fresh garlic.

    I’d cook up a fried rice with steak. Fried rice needs a good quality frying pan and this certainly looks the part.
    Thanks for hosting, I’d be delighted to win x

    Cheese and onion omelette. Luckily maybe my brother would make it for me :- As a treat, he is good at making omelettes.

    I cringe too when I see TV chefs using metal in a non-stick pan. I couldn’t believe it when Mary Berry did it recently! Mr Vohn reckons they probably get so many pans they don’t care and just throw them out! 🙁
    I would make Mr Vohn his favourite breakfast of Ulster Fry if I won. 🙂 Vohn x

    Love to cook so it’s difficult to name just one thing, but the Judge Natural Ceramic Frying Pan looks perfect for a lovely, healthy stir-fry which I prepare quite often for the family.

    Omelette – but I’m sure my wife would find much better uses for it when it’s her turn to cook.

    I would make my beautiful caramelised onion and goats cheese risotto as Judge’s tools would do it justice.

    It has to be Tartiflette – it is so rich that I rarely have it but I would have to make it to celebrate if I won!

    I love the sound of your recipe for Pork Fried Rice. I’ve come a little late making fried rice and found I love it and as I have some roasted port sitting in the freezer waiting for inspiration I’ll give it a go!x

    Probably, shredded duck in pancakes. I don’t need the pan for the duck, but the pancakes. All of my non-stick Tefal pans are ruined, so I haven’t been able to make them for a long time.
