Aga Saga

Aga Legacy OvenYou may already know how an Aga appliance works, but what you may not know is the meaning of Aga Saga. The term is used to describe a certain type of novels about middle class families living in rural areas of the United Kingdom. These Aga Sagas are written about characters that are likely to own an Aga oven, a popular luxury appliance in Europe.

The name was introduced by Terrence Blacker in an article in Publishing News specifically targeting author, Joanna Trollope. Though only two of her twelve books could be described by this term, she is still the main Aga Saga target. She has been quoted saying "I am fairly tired of such an inaccurate and patronising tag" and "I will be queen of the Aga Saga to my dying day. Its jolly annoying".

Yellow Bertazzoni Professional Series StoveBertazzoni is a family company based in Emilia- Tomagna Italy. This part of Italy is known for its expertise in fine Italian cooking and is home to many of the best chefs in the world. Not only can you get a world-class meal, but it is here that you will find the some of the best farming machinery, motorcycles, and cars. The Bertazzoni company shares more than manufacturing methods and procedures with the automotive industry. Ranges from the Bertazzoni Heritage Series and the Professional Series are painted in the same factory as Lamborghini automobiles! According to Bertazzoni Company literature, the ranges are "realised in a fully durable, double layer coating on stainless steel Lamborghiniusing the latest processes developed by the automobile industry". It only makes sense that these heavy-duty appliances would have such superior paint jobs; since it is clear that they focus strictly on high quality for the modern cook.
