I once saw a pizza chef using one to brown meat on top of the pizza

you can get one of these for half the price and it has 11x as much propane in it.

I never got into these things because it seems like it would give the food a weird flavor, I also own an oven

It’s the traditional Italian way, for millennia.

I use mine primarily for:

>char and sear meats (especially steak) in a cast iron on my stovetop

>stir fry to create wok hei on stovetop

>char vegetables and peppers once in a blue moon

>it seems like it would give the food a weird flavor

if you control the size and intensity of the flame correctly (short blue flame), you won't have this problem as the gas combusts fully

I use mine for doing dabs. Also if you're looking for other food items to torch you can try it for toasting the inside of bread bowls

They're generally for when you don't have a good salamander outside of baking. They can char things really fast, so you could use it to peel peppers or torch some cheese (when a broiler would typically melt it). I have one, but have only used it for a few fancy catering gigs, or something fancy for a family or friend's party, maybe 3 times over the past 2 years.

It’s a meme

Sometimes while drunk, I'll cut thin slices of frozen kielbasa, skewer them, then hit them with the torch until I see a slight char. Surprisingly tasty and very quick.

i made creme brulee once and then used it to smoke weed and cigars until it broke and i threw it away

burns clean and tasteless what's the prob?

>>19216986 (OP)

oh also it's good for blasting the top of a sunny side up egg if you're like me and throw an egg in the pan when making burgers to soak up the grease but don't let the pan cool to a reasonable level

I bought one for a family member from Aliexpress. They use it exclusively in bakery now, about once in two months. 

When it arrived I had to put it together and it looked sketchy af during assembly lol.

5/10 gift, not worth blowing your fingers off.

Get a proper salamander instead. Barely costs more.

>>19216986 (OP)

Don't these things leave an unpleasant aroma and flavor of the fuel in whatever food you torch with it?

one time I tried reheating a pizza with a mapp gas torch. it didn't work so well.
