Dress your kitchen
Chef Roy Yamaguchi takes to the Home Shopping Network March 31 to sell a new line of cookware that he describes as "kitchen jewelry."Yamaguchi will introduce a 16-piece line of pots and pans that come in baked-on enamel tones of magma red, kiwi green, Pacific blue and pearl black. The cookware is extremely sturdy for home kitchens, made of stainless steel with an aluminum base, but what Yamaguchi is most excited about is all the color.
He says it will make cooking fun. "You're not staring at something stark."
The shopping shows will be broadcast before studio audiences four times on the 31st, at 2, 6 and 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Footage showing Yamaguchi using the cookware was shot at Roy's Tampa restaurant.
Prices for the set have not been set.
