I love the fish weight

I love the fish weight. I use it every time I pan sear fillets. I've also butterflied a whole branzino and pan seared it skin-side down. It always results in perfectly cooked, very moist flesh and crispy skin. I can't wait to use it again tonight.

Really enjoying my fish weight in Rose Gold

Really enjoying my fish weight in Rose Gold. Have now cooked Barramundi tail fillets on the bbq a couple of times and the results have been outstanding. Its not so much about crispy skin for me, but properly cooked flesh, cooked just enough, which is exactly what I have been achieving

Wish I Bought Earlier

I procrastinated about buying one of these as I love cooking a cook steak but hate the meat not making great contact with the pan/grill.
This weight adds enough pressure to get a great outcome!

Just what i need

I was travelling to Sydney and saw the ad. Ordered right away and delivered to my friend’s address in Sydney. Used it when i arrived to cook salmon and it just works as intended. Im bringing it home to Philippines

Sensational value

There is nothing exactly like this. It deserves its place in culinary history as much as the siphon or peppermill. It does exactly what it claims to do, and that is create a perfectly cooked piece of fish without turning… what we used to call unilateral fillet cooking, but better.

When function and form truly stand side by side

What an exceptional piece of art that has its function in the kitchen as a very good fish and meat weight yet easily takes its pride of place as a beautiful accent piece that would compliment any contemporary design.

Bravo Josh. This will be my go to present for all my foodie friends

Cheers Angelo Gatz

Impresionante

After travelling more than 17,400 km, the long wait has been worth it. It's really impressive. I can't explain the happiness I have right now, I look like a little child.
It’s weight is gold.
Thank you very much

Omfg beyond my expectations!!!

Wow! I'm absolutely gobsmacked at the result using the fishweight and pan purchased from Mr Niland. I was sceptical but I thought my husband was keen. We were so, so wrong... it turned out to be the most sublime fish dinner we've cooked at home. Truly splendid. Do yourself a favour and get one… you won't be disappointed!

Gorgeous product

Firstly, Mr Niland's packaging and the gorgeous fish weight are a gift in itself. Beautifully presented. The fish weight is heavy and belongs displayed in a kitchen.
I am working on achieving crispy skin with cast iron pans and induction stove. Thus far, it hasn't happened. I've been working with salmon and the skin becomes too crisp (overdone) and unappealing. However, the salmon is perfectly cooked.

The Best Gift Ever!!

I originally bought the rainbow weight as a Christmas gift for my friend who is a Chef. She said it was the best gift ever and uses it frequently. When it came back on sale a couple of months ago I decided to get it for myself. I absolutely love it!!! So far I've used it when the Striper was in season and for duck breast. What a succulent sear on the skin. Love that crunchy goodness.
Thank you!!

Fish weight produces moist tasty fish

After just a few uses of the fish weight, I haven't mastered the art of crisp skin yet but I do very much like the way that it cooks the fish. It gives you excellent control and produces beautifully cooked, soft, moist flesh that really allows the flavour to come through. Josh's great tip of finishing off the surface of the fish by spooning some of the cooking oil over it rather than flipping it over also makes a real difference.

Perfect for wild caught fish

I started eating more wild caught fish. Wild caught isn’t as forgiving as farmed because it’s more lean so I kept overcooking the fish or removing the skin because I didn’t like the results. Not anymore! Perfectly cooked filets and crispy skin in 5 minutes. Just salt and paper. That’s it. So fun and easy to use. Great for bone in chicken thighs too.
