Butane Cooking Torches
Butane cooking torches are versatile tools used in both professional kitchens and home kitchens for various culinary tasks. These torches are powered by butane gas and produce a steady, adjustable flame that can reach high temperatures, making them ideal for tasks such as caramelizing sugar, browning meringue, searing meats, and melting cheese. In pastry and dessert making, butane torches are commonly used to create a crisp and caramelized surface on desserts like crème brûlée and meringue pies. The intense heat from the torch quickly caramelizes the sugar on the surface, resulting in a crunchy, golden topping. In savory cooking, butane torches are handy for adding a finishing touch to dishes like steaks and seafood by giving them a perfect sear. They can also be used to melt cheese on dishes like French onion soup or toast breadcrumbs on gratins.
