Giveaway: Jacob Bromwell Grater Set

by Amber on November 3, 2011

There are certain tools in my kitchen that I cherish. I use them every day, in multiple ways, and they mean even more to me because they’re heritage pieces. Pieces that I inherited from Nanny or my mom, things that I grew up using.

I’ve spoken before about my favorite ice cream scoop, a scoop my Nanny gave me about two years ago. It was hers for the entirety of her marriage, purchased in the late 50s. It still works like a charm today in my kitchen, and every time I hold it, I think fondly of Nanny and Gaga, and the nights when Gaga would sneak off to the kitchen and make us all cake cones with chocolate ice cream right before bed, much to Nanny’s dismay.

When the folks at Jacob Bromwell approached me to review some of their products, I was intrigued. They’ve been around for 192 years. One hundred and ninety-two years! I am in love with every single product on their site – from the fireplace popcorn popper to the flour sifters, every single item on the Jacob Bromwell site screams heritage.

I was both surprised and delighted to realize that the St. Joseph Flat Shredders set on Jacob Bromwell’s site is the exact same set Nanny had in her kitchen throughout my childhood. Lord knows how old they were – I asked my mom, and she said she remembered them from her childhood. Nanny’s (and now my mom’s) set works as well today as if it were brand new.

So when the JB guys asked if I’d like to review those shredders, well – it’s a no brainer! I’ve now got another heirloom piece in my kitchen, only they’re brand new! Holding the tin shredders was literally like a throwback to my childhood. The hours Nanny had me on a stepping stool, shredding potatoes for hashbrowns, slicing cheese for grilled cheese.. you name it, these guys were her all purpose tools and now they’re mine!

Rachel @ Not Rachael Ray November 3, 2011 at 8:16 AM: I love their popcorn popper—been eyeing it forever! Love the idea of the rotary ricer too–my mom always used one to make her canned applesauce, it brings back such great memories!
Rebecca November 3, 2011 at 8:27 AM: The pioneer folding toaster looks like it would bring out my inner Laura Ingalls.
Always Wright November 3, 2011 at 9:47 AM: I would love to have the handcrafted Jacob Bromwell All-American Flour Sifter with that cute wooden knob on the handle. I had a sifter and it was destroyed, so I have been using a strainer and could use this. Thanks for a great website!

Maxine R. November 3, 2011 at 9:52 AM: I really like the flour sifter. I had one like this years ago and lost it when we moved to Illinois 20 years ago. I’d love to buy another one–in fact, I may just do it.
McKinze November 3, 2011 at 10:03 AM: I also really love the flour sifter – the All-American one. Thanks for such a great giveaway!

Kelly Jo November 3, 2011 at 10:34 AM: I actually am strongly considering buying the All-American Flour Sifter. My mother had one when I was growing up just like that that she’d inherited from my grandmother, her mother-in-law. It eventually got a rust spot and had to be retired but this one brings up so many fond memories!
Jackie Watson November 3, 2011 at 11:15 AM: I would love the popcorn popper as a gift for me! The microwave popcorn leaves me wanting old fashioned popped corn.

Thanks for the chance!
