I purchased this a while back (summer I believe) but I finally pulled it out last week to bake cookies. We use the actual Silpat brand baking mats at school (I attend Sullivan University's Culinary Arts Program) and there is NO DIFFERENCE!!! They keep my cookies from sticking, they brown evenly, and cleanup is a breeze!! I just purchased a second so I can have two pans going in my oven at the same time!! I can't wait to purchase the 9" rounds for cakes!

UPDATE!!

While researching, I just realized that Sil-Eco is a division of SILPAT!!! It looks like Silpat is in stores while Sil-Eco is exclusively for Amazon.com and Kitchen Collection (at a fraction of the cost!!!)! How cool is that!! So no wonder there's no difference between the two!! I'm so happy right now!!!

I was wondering what the difference was between these and the Silpats that my friends use--as it turns out, only the price! These work great--I've used them multiple times for all sorts of breads--profiteroles, challah, scones (not cookies--I don't bake them that much, although I can't see how these wouldn't work for them)--and I've never had a problem with them. I just rinse them in some soapy water, and if there's some extra grease/flour on there, I wipe it gently with a moistened towel, and it's as good as new. It's also worth noting that whereas for many cookie sheets you have to wait for the sheet to cool before baking another batch (say, if you're making a bunch of cookies), these sheets are very quick-cooling, cutting down on a lot of cooling time.

To be honest, I was surprised to find such a great product at a fraction of the price of the Silpats. I didn't realize these were made in China, as one reviewer points out, but that didn't necessarily matter to me. It might to you, and you should know that they are. That said, I feel I can definitely recommend these, especially for people who are tired of buying roll after roll of parchment paper. I should say, I haven't exactly gotten rid of the parchment paper just yet--it's good for lining the bottoms of cake and bread tins. But these are exactly what's needed when you're baking either free-form breads, or quick-breads.

Incomplete order & missing necessary parts. All 12 pot hooks were missing. Now I'm going to have to go out to purchase my own hooks from a hardware store. Disappointed.

Best Deals for Old Dutch Oval Pot Rack

My wife is very pleased with this purchase. It supports all her heavy pots and pans. And, importantly, it looks great.

From my perspective, I was grateful it came with mounting hardware to mount into the trusses. 4 sturdy hooks that screw directly into the trusses. A 3/8" drill bit is needed so that should give you an idea as to their size. While it is designed to mount on a ceiling with 16" trusses, I had no problem installing in our trusses that are 24" apart (an older house).

My only complaint is that it is not easy as one would think to adjust the height. Our ceiling is only 8 ft and my wife wanted the rack to hang only a foot below the ceiling to minimize head banging. One would think one could simply adjust by using less links ... but it is not so easy because the links are too narrow to fit over the hooks that attach to the ceiling and at the other end ... it is closed tight around the link. I had to use a big hammer and screwdriver to pry open the end link in order to shorten each chain by 10 links. It took me about an hour to install.

Bottom line: My wife is happy in how it looks and functions. I am very happy at the cost and at how sturdy it attaches -despite the minor difficulty I had with adjusting the links. No regrets.

This unit was difficult to install. The frame was slightly warped making it not hang completely straight. One of the hanging chains had one less link on it which also caused leveling issue. However, it is up and looks great. You can't tell it's not perfectly level anyhow. We have 8' ceiling so the chains had to be choked up. I will have to cut the excess off eventually which will be difficult. It is a beautiful dark bronze color and quite solid. I would buy it again if we move.

Review of Bialetti 10-Inch Aeternum Easy Saute Pan, Blue

I thought this pan would be perfect for eggs and breakfast stuff. Seemed great for the first couple of months, but then slowly I started noticing little pinhole pits in the ceramic coating. I have been nothing but extremely and overly "delicate" with this. Always washed separately to ensure nothing banged into the ceramic coating. I use nothing but bamboo and silicone utensils to cook so there should be no reason for this pitting. I think I'll stick to classic indestructible stainless steel and cast iron. I'm about done with all these "cookware fads" of disposable cookware.

I have had this pan for well over one year.

**When I need to sear, I use a stainless or cast iron pan.**

It STAYS on my stovetop, almost all of the time (cleaned).

I use it everyday.

I use no more than Medium Heat ever.

I do not overheat while preheating.

I use a VERY light coating of oil, or residual oil from previous cooking.

I wipe it clean with a paper towel when possible (usually).

If needed, I wipe it with a sponge under tap water.

If xtra crusty, I soak before sponging (rare!)

I NEVER use any sort of scrubbing surface.

I only occasionally use soap.

With the above care, this go-to pan looks and cooks as if brand-new.

This pan is not only easy to clean up but you can actually brown food in it. I made home fry's that came out golden and crispy. High heat was not needed to obtain this. Nothing burned. You do need to be careful not to use metal and I wouldn't stack other pans inside it unless you have something soft in between.

It's a Wusthof Classic, so it's got all the weight, balance, comfort and precision sharpness of the great German line. This is a great choice for all amateur & aspiring chefs, and many professionals.

The purpose of this review is to urge any shopper investing in a Wusthof bread knife to go for the full 10" length -it makes a positive difference in leverage as you slice, and easily clears the diameter of virtually any boule, ciabatta, and other artisan loaves. The same principle applies to roasts and other meats, if you use your serrated knives for carving.

The length doesn't diminish anyone's ability to slice tomatoes, panini or any other foods, either. If you're going to spend $100+ on a quality bread knife, make your money go further with the 10" model.

We bought the Wusthof 10" Bread Knife because it was recommended by Cook's Illustrated Magazine as the best serrated knife available on the market. My wife and I make homemade Italian country bread and the crust is thick and can be a trick to slice well. This Wusthof 10" bread knife cuts it easily into any thickness we want -and takes much of the manual labor out of the job. We love our new bread knife and we would recommend it to anyone who makes and loves artisan breads.

Thanks, Amazon, for the great price on this great knife!

I got this knife as a gift and had my doubts that this could be so great. In my experience, any sereated knife cut bread pretty well. Boy, was I ever wrong. This knife slides through a loaf of bread, hot from the oven, like a hot knife through butter. Usually you have to let bread cool some before cutting or you get this crushed mass of food. With this knife I can cut it straight from the oven in 2 easy strokes and leave it looking like a slice of bread any professional could have done. My husband and I want to cut our own bread so we can use the knife ourselves! Who would have thought it could be so much fun? The heft is good and it's a decent size. I love it!

Emile Henry Flame Top Roaster Reviews

List Price: $125.00
Sale Price: $124.95

Nice, heavy pan. I bought it mostly for lasagna because it's hard to find a deep lasagna pan and this one is just right. I've also used it to bake a chicken in sauce and to bake a cake and it worked well for both. It weighs over six pounds when it's empty, though, so it is a bit heavy when it has food in it.

For some reason, the directions say that it needs to be seasoned before using it the first time. Per their instructions, I boiled a little bit of milk in it to season it and it was a little hard to get the burned milk off the bottom of the pan (guess I boiled it too long), and there was one area of black that did not come off. Tonight, I made a dish I got off of their website and some food burned on the bottom of the pan when I was browning the chicken on the stovetop and it also left black marks, even after scrubbing with a plastic mesh scrubber. The cleaning instructions on Emile Henry's website only say to soak the pan to get rid of burnt-on food. I will have to e-mail them to see if I am supposed to use steel wool on it. The marks should not affect the usefulness of the pan, though.

I'll never actually use this pan before I return it, so I can't comment on its performance. What I can say is the pan is ridiculously small. I had dithered for weeks between the 15x10 and the 17x11, finally opting for the smaller as more practical for everyday use. Sadly, when I received it, the pan labeled "15.6 x 10.4 inches" turned out to perfectly fit a standard letter sized piece of paper in the bottom: thus, it's actually about 8.5 x 11" (it slopes out a bit, so you could call it 10x12). The only way to call it 15.5" is by measuring the handles. Stupid of Emile Henry to misrepresent the size like this. I'd never owned one of their pieces before and now I'll never consider another.

I adore this braiser and it has been worth *every* penny. I already own the 7+ quart French oven in kiwi but wanted a pan that is a bit smaller depth-wise, yet still has great surface area for cooking on the stove top. I have made all sorts of wonderful meals in the braiser, such as Beef Bourguignon, braised short ribs, various chicken dishes, etc; as you would expect from a Le Creuset enameled cast iron piece, the browning is excellent and easily transfers to the oven for even cooking. Even if you don't plan to braise, the braiser serves as a fantastic skillet. Clean-up is also easy, especially if you scrape up the delicious fond after you've added your cooking liquid. Otherwise, any resistant remnants are easily washed away; anything particularly baked on comes off with a bit of Bar Keeper's Friend.

The cassis color is so beautiful. As mentioned before, I already own a few Le Creuset pieces in kiwi and these colors are lovely together.

Do be sure to inspect your pan when you receive it. Though Le Creuset offers an excellent, lifetime warranty, you want to make sure the pan arrives without defect, if only to save yourself the hassle of having to exchange it down the road. Look at the piece, both inside and out, and ensure that the enamel is perfect. If you're going to spend $100's on a piece, you want it to be perfect and to truly last your lifetime.

I heartily recommend this Le Creuset braiser to anyone who loves to cook and wants a piece that highly functional, beautiful, and will stand the test of time!

Looking for something on the smaller side to replace my tired looking Pyrex and Corning pieces I use for baking a chicken leg or two, I first considered the LeCreuset bakeware. In the long run, I wasn't crazy about the handles and some of the reviews, so I decided that the couple of extra bucks were worth the convenience of stove top to oven should need be. I also bought the SS knob.

I baked two leg quarters (Tex-Mex cheese under the skin) with spinach, beans, and white wine last night and there was more than enough room to spare for two or more pieces. Clean up was a breeze, unlike the Pyrex and Corning, and I'm very pleased with another LeCreuset purchase.

While viewing Sur La Table's online catalogue today I found a 3 quart something sized covered deep saute pan in cassis. I didn't find it listed on Amazon and probably would have purchased it instead of this casserole for two reasons: The pan's cooking surface isn't as large (which is fine when not cooking for a family) and is about $50 less.

I may just pick up one more :) LeCreuset piece!

This is basically a glorified skillet -but how, how glorified! It's about 12" in diameter and not quite 2" deep without the lid, so I wouldn't use it for anything too soupy or saucy -but for risotto or curries or meats in sauce, it's perfect. Like all Le Creuset, it heats up quickly and holds heat brilliantly, so sauces reduce very quickly and smoothly. The cassis color is more subdued than lots of the other Le Creuset color options -sort of a dusty plum -very pretty. I love it!

Pan worked well for me with its design: the height fits perfect a 10-12 pound turkey or goose, the easy to handle removable grit works perfect and there is enough space in the bottom of the pan for plenty of gravy. I found nothing negative about the way the material cleans. Easy. The lit in itself makes a nice roasting dish as it is deep enough.

The only negative issue for me: pan and lid are not suitable for induction cooktop. With most cookware I would like to see all manufacturer always specifically quote this. With a similar design, and price I would have chosen a roaster that works on induction. Otherwise I can only recommend this larger size roaster.

Best Chef's Choice 630 International Gourmet Electric Food Slicer Deals

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $365.00
Sale Price: $279.00
Today's Bonus: 24% Off

I used to work in a deli and have used my fair share of commercial slicers. When I decided to buy one for home use, I knew that I didn't want one of the large, cumbersome slicers that I had used in the past, and that this would mean some tradeoffs in terms of power and quality. After taking a long look around, I finally decided on the CC-630, and I'm glad I did. I believe this unit offers an excellent compromise between commercial power and everyday practicality.

Please don't misunderstand... you don't want this slicer if you're looking to open a deli or restaurant. You can feel the slicer slow down as it cuts through denser foods (like meat and cheese) that the commercial slicers would just pass right through.

This little unit is best suited to the home user who wants to be able to cut enough cold cuts for a day's use say packing lunches for the family. It's also great for slicing up roasts, BONELESS turkey/chicken, cheeses, and vegetables. Whatever you slice, slice only what you will consume immediately or at least in the next day or so. That's the secret to those deli sandwiches... cut everything fresh for the best flavor.

Of surprise to me was how well this unit handles bread. It needs to be a fairly flexible bread (no cornbread/biscuits) as it has to bend slightly to accomodate the shape of the slicer. If you make your own bread, you can now slice it perfectly at nearly any thickness.

Just be sure to let anything that you make yourself cool completely before slicing. A warm roast or turkey breast just isn't rigid enough to hold itself together against the moving blade. If you're looking to use this for your thanksgiving dinner then you'd be better off investing in a good sharp carving set (not the serrated kind, but the kind you can resharpen). For thanksgiving leftovers, the slicer is ideal. Just don't do anything silly like trying to cut through bones as they can get caught in the moving blade... a serious safety hazard.

Why only 4 stars? Well, this unit would rate 5 in my opinion if not for two issues. First, a safety concern: the unit has seperate on/off and thickness controls. So what? Well, that means that you can turn the unit off and still leave the blade in an exposed cutting position (and at thinner settings, this is almost imperceptable visually). This can lead to serious injury should someone try to clean the unit thinking that the blade is safely shielded. Not a good idea if you have children around, or even if you don't. A simple solution is just to get in the habit of turning the thickness to zero immediately before or after turning the slicer off.

My other issue is that the manual says that no part of the slicer is dishwasher safe. This is extremely annoying as there are several removable non-electronic parts that are difficult to clean by hand. It seems absurd that the heavy duty plastic and stainless steel that these parts are made of would not hold up to a household dishwasher.

Overall, I find this to be an excellent slicer and highly recommend for home use. Much better than the cheaper underpowered models that are nearly impossible to clean properly.

I owned this slicer for two years, and used it maybe twenty times at most--mainly for slicing ham. At first it seemed to work fine. Then I noticed it ran a bit slower with each use until it finally quit working entirely. I disassembled the slicer to see if it could be repaired. Inside I found a very small, burned-out electric motor. In my opinion, this motor is much too weak to last very long if used for slicing anything other than soft bread. The motor in my old Kitchen Aid blender is larger (and has lasted for many years under daily use.)

FYI, the EdgeCraft company which manufactures Chef's Choice does not sell replacement motor or gear parts. You must send it to them for repair. However, they don't make repair estimates. You must send the product to them and take your chances. Considering the price of this product, I feel totally ripped off. I will never buy another Chef's Choice product.

I read a review about a different slicer which recommends limiting use to under 10 minutes at a time. The tiny 100 watt (~1/8hp) motor in this slicer simply cannot tolerate extended use. It would probably work okay for slicing soft bread, but that's about it.

A few final notes:

* The Chef's Choice documentation clearly states the product has a 90 day limited warranty. Furthermore, you must pay all shipping charges to return the product and have it sent back to you. After any repair, the warranty is good for ONLY 90 DAYS AFTER THE INITIAL PURCHASE DATE, it is not extended after the repair.

* If you buy this product and the motor burns out on you, just remember you were warned.

If you like roast beef sandwiches from Arby's, this is EXACTLY what you are looking for. I bought this ham slicing blade [ http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000X6EHK/qid=1115663701/sr=1-3/ref=sr_1_3/002-0484266-3618452?v=glance&s=kitchen ] to go along with this slicer. The first thing I did was buy a sirloin tip roast at Sam's and slow roast it at 325 for 3 hours. I sliced the roast nice and thin, topped it with some horseradish sauce and -POOF-, I had the best roast beef sandwich I have ever had. I am so excited to cook my hams and turkeys now.

When I first turned it on, I thought it would be too weak to slice the beef, but it was not. It was like a hot knife through butter. Changing/removing the blade was extremely simple.

The best part about this slicer is the ease of cleaning. I was able to thoroughly clean and sanitize all of it in less than 5 minutes.

The only thing I didn't like was the power button. It seemed as though it should have been designed different. There were no problems with the button, it just seemed awkward.

You will thoroughly love this machine. It is very simple to use. I didn't even need to read the instructions.

I am a professional Prep Cook in my opinion this is a good place to start if you are looking for a home slicer. I bought this slicer for roasts and cheese.

For those of you that think this machine is not easy to clean, I use a huge deli meat slicer on average 2 days a week for 5-6 hour a day. The slicer that I use at work takes 30-45 mins. to clean and the parts are very large and hard to handle. The 630 is a breeze to clean.

Cheap Stainless Steel Pot Watcher

I was happy to find the pot watcher since I had not been able to find one in the stores. I wanted to buy one for a daughter in law who frequently boils food over on her countertop stove. The ones I have had have been glass and I managed to consistantly break them. The Stainless steel works fine but they would be even better if reversable like the glass ones are. If you accidently tip this one upside down when stirring the pot, it does not work.

These make an excellent "stocking stuffer" for anyone who cooks.

We've been using glass pot watchers in our tea kettle for a few years. But, being glass, they tended to crack and break over time. We decided one of stainless steel would last forever as there is no chance of breaking. This one costs about the same as the glass versions and works extremely well. It doesn't make as much noise as its glass counterparts, but that's not a problem. We're happy!

I am impressed by the simplicity and creativity of this device. It warns by clanking against the bottom of a pot when bubbles start to form. Basically, it amplifies bubbles. The pot watcher starts to make sound as soon as small bubbles start to form. Depending on the size of the pot, the warning may come too soon long before the contents actually start to boil. In my situation, I was looking for about ten-second warning but it gives about forty five second warning. That said, this device is good to have around for times when you need to walk away and devote your attention to something else.

Keeps my pots from boiling over every time. The only problem is trying to get it out of the pot/food. The pot watcher obviously gets hots, so you have to use some sort of utensil to remove it from the pot, which can get messy if you're not transferring the food to a colander or another dish.

This is a pretty simple product: when hot water boils, the convection currents catch the grooves and make the disc rattle against the bottom of the pot. The disc itself is fairly thick and hasn't shown any signs of rusting.

This wasn't all that loud in a non-stick pot but it's pretty audible in my stainless steel pots. I suspect the texture of the non-stick coating was muffling it. I always use it now when I'm boiling eggs in the morning and it makes it much easier to turn the burner down when the water reaches a steady boil. I'm using old Revereware pots with solid steel lids so it definitely beats lifting the lid up occasionally to see if the water has started to boil. It also seems like this disc would be useful in a teakettle without a built-in whistle but I don't personally have a kettle to test this in.

This product is an excellent investment for the quality of cooking you can achieve with the copper fusion Chantal has placed in the product. Yes, it cooks an excellent soup and chili, but my favorite is how the Indian Curry blends together in the pot.

I purchased Chantal copper fusion cookware for use on an induction cooktop. I have no complaints about the pots and pans, but there is clearly either a design flaw or manufacturing defect with the lids. I have read other reviews complaining that water gets between the glass lid and the metal ring. My problem s different: every single lid shows varying degrees of metal rust in the area that is under the glass portion.

I contacted the Chantal company customer service and submitted the photos they requested. Never heard back from them despite more emails that I sent.

I think at these prices they should be able to deliver a product that does not rust and most certainly should respond when they receive a customer inquiry. Very disappointed and will not recommend this cookware to anyone.
