This plate does the job, but the lids don't fit so securely, no matter how many times I put them on. It's safe for the microwave and dishwasher.

I have used these for several years. I like them because I can take most frozen entrees/dinners out of the store carton and plastic tray and place the frozen food in this dish. I then add extra frozen veggies and/or frozen chicken strips for fiber and protein. Takes longer than the time on the store carton, but works well. However, I always put the dish on a microwave safe plate because the dish by itself is somewhat difficult to handle, especially when hot. Other reviewers are correct that the lid is not tight on the dish. This means that if you attempt to grab the dish by the edge handles when it contains freshly cooked food, the lid may slip and cause a serious steam burn to your fingers. Yesterday I used my microwave safe plate under another microwave dish. When it was finished I took off the dish with hot food, and placed this dish full of frozen entree and veggies on the hot plate and put it in the microwave to cook. I wasn't concerned since this is supposed to be freezer and microwave safe. However, when the entree was finished cooking, I discovered that this dish had a long and serious crack in the bottom. I can only speculate that this was caused by the difference in temperature between the hot underplate and the frozen food. I am ordering a replacement because I still think the dish serves my needs well, but I will be more careful to be sure my underplate is not too hot when placing this dish with frozen food on it.

Dishes work really well in the microwave but do not put the lids in the dishwasher, not even top rack. The lids no long fit on to the dishes, they shrank. Disappointing that I will have to put left-overs into another container & then return them to these items to reheat.

Honest reviews on Nordic Ware Micowave 48-Ounce Round Casserole Dish with Cover

I ordered several Nordic Ware items and all the items had something wrong. Some items I received had cracked edges along the cover, other items the lids did not fit and this item the lid would not snap down. I bought this item to store leftovers. The edge of the lid was cracked and the lid doesn't snap down, then the leftovers would dry out or smell up the rest of the frig. I have bought Nordic Ware before at Target and other stores so I was able to verify that the item would seal. I highly suggest not to buy Nordic Ware online, buy it in a store so you can inspect it. When the items are not cracked and seal correctly, they actually work great.

I first purchased a Wolfgang Puck cookware stainless steel set off QVC some 3-4 years ago to supplement an older Teflon set. Since then I have been pleased with the quality of the line and the way it cooks my food. Now I have decided to completely replace the supplement set and just use WP and have no regrets doing. I have not purchased any of the Teflon cookware but I might just to judge for myself.

Before I buy anything, I do a lot of research. I spent well over four hours online and talked to two very good amateur chefs/retired cooks who owned seven and twelve different brands of pepper grinders and both recommended an Atlas pepper mill. Well worth ~$100, grinds exceptionally fine and very fast! Its quite heavy as well. Wasn't really easy to fill (used a funnel) but it holds so much pepper and you need so little when it grinds this fine it doesn't matter. Every time I use it I grin ear-to-ear.

American soldiers supposedly used this pepper mill in WWII to grind coffee. I believe it!

The original "French White" Corningware was made of Corning's famous pyroceramic glass, which could be used on the gas stove, put directly in the freezer, put under the broiler right from the freezer, and oh yes, also used in a microwave. And it was very unlikely to shatter if dropped. If you pounded on it with a hammer and nail you might have gotten it to break.

When World Kitchens bought the license from Corning, they decided to halt production of a line of cookware that would take anything and last forever, and dupe customers, especially brides, into thinking the stoneware "French White" was the same thing as the wonderful French White pyroceramic cookware previously available to their mothers and sisters.

The pattern is very attractive and can be used with any decor, and they do offer many sizes, but this stuff is not, repeat, really not, what people mean when they say "Corningware."

Le Creuset can do most of the above mentioned, but it being metal you cannot use it in the microwave. Stoneware cannot go on top of the stove, and repeated trips from the freezer to the oven will eventually cause it to craze and crack. And stoneware will also chip, and break if dropped, etc. Pyrex glassware cannot go on the gas stove although you can take it from the freezer to the oven, and also microwave it.

The only product which could do anything was pyroceramic, and World Kitchens has chosen to remove it from the market because it is "too good."

They have recently brought back a few of the old square shapes, with the Cornflower, or plain white, calling it "vintage," but the French White shape is not making a reappearance yet. If you want it, email them and ask for it!

Meanwhile, don't buy this stuff. Get Le Creuset for cooking and roasting (yes it is expensive but it lasts forever and cooks beautifully), and reheat things in Pyrex in the microwave.

You can't go wrong with CorningWare. Dishwasher safe, oven safe, freezer safe and microwave safe. I have several other pieces of CorningWare, but I wanted the roaster it is perfect for whole hams, smaller turkerys, chicken etc. Cooks beautifully, doesn't stain and you don't need additional serving pieces, just bake and serve in the same dish. Plus, the French White line is a crisp white and is heavier than some of their other styles.

We had received one of these as part of a set about four years ago. My wife dropped and broke that one a week ago, and within 30 minutes of cleaning up the mess, we had ordered this replacement--that's how much we like it.

i have one requirement for a pot: it needs to fit my Aga stove. In other words, it should have a perfectly flat bottom and not be too tall to fit in the ovens. Since having the Aga installed several years ago, I had to replace the pots that didn't fit or work properly on the big flat plates that serve as burners.. All Sitram pots have a thick flat bottom which works perfectly on my stove. Since most of them are made for commercial use, they are extremely sturdy and come in many useful sizes. When I realized that one of my stockpots was too tall for my ovens, i got this pot, and it's perfect, since it's wide and low. This is a great pot for large batches of stew, soup, or stock. It cleans up nicely by hand or in the dishwasher, and a little stainless steel cleaner takes away any stains that do develop. My only (small) complaint is that the lids have to be purchased separately. As you may have guessed, I own several Sitram pots and pans and like them all. They're not expensive, either.

Review of Jaccard Super 3 Meat Tenderizer

Jaccard Super 3 Meat Tenderizer

List Price: $50.00
Sale Price: $25.90

This device works easily, quickly, and effectively. It does change the texture somewhat, but the trick is to not over tenderize. I made this mistake with some old frozen tough chuck. I pierced in all directions repeatedly; across, 90 degrees, a 45 degree angle going this way and that way and repeatedly; it stayed together, but it was more tender than meatloaf...not good. Twice over on each side and then twice again at a 90 degree angle is about right for typical chuck. Perhaps an extra pass if especially tough.

Great for crock pot dishes with chicken breast...once over each side and once again at 90 degrees and the breast is moist; the gravy/juice penetrates...mmmm.

This is one of those kitchen aids that is not just a gadget. If you love the flavor of chuck (or any tough meat) but want to avoid chemical tenderizers, get the jaccard instead: it does a MUCH better job without chemicals. And if you like to use a lot of seasoning, piercing the meat gets the seasoning from atop the meat and into the meat. Great invention. Well worth the price. Built well.

Wonderful. Tired of cleaning the splatters of blood and meat bits from the tile behind your kitchen counter? Throw that tenderizing hammer in the garage tool box and use this superb gadget instead. Never had chicken or beef that was better than this item produces. 30 seconds and you are done. Beef or chicken cooks clean through even on the grill in half the time. Marinade really penetrates well.

Note: Instructions say to go over the meat 4 or 5 times. NOT for 4 or 5 minutes! 4 or 5 times takes 30 seconds or less.

Best Deals for Jaccard Super 3 Meat Tenderizer

This has become a staple in our kitchen, used on everything from flank steak to pork chops.

Why I love this:

1. Works for all ages and levels of cooking expertise. Safe to use.

2 Very, very easy to use. Simply press down on the top and the sharp blades cut through the toughest sinews of your particular cut of meat. It takes very little energy to press down on this, so even eldery cooks or those with arthritis could handle this.

3. Allows MAXIMUM penetration of tenderizers. No other tenderizer has done as well.

4. The best tenderizer I've used.

5. Easy to store, wit a protective cover to prevent any accidental cuts or harm from the blade.

6. Allows you to save money, making less tender cuts of meat come out as tender as more expensive ones.

Now, a personal opinion. If you ARE going to tenderize your meat, please avoid adding salt to your marinade if you can avoid it. I think it draws out the juices and makes for a less flavorful and tender cut of meat. If you want your meat to be salty, just add it after your first bite, adjusting to your taste.

Also, please let the meat rest for a good 5 minutes after you take it from the oven. If you cut it before then, you may have one good slice of meat (the first one) but the juices will flow out and the rest of the pieces will be less tender. So let the meat sit and let the juices settle a bit. You'll be glad you did.

Honest reviews on Jaccard Super 3 Meat Tenderizer

Amazing what this little gadget can do for tenderizing a cut of meat. Forget pounding unless the recipe calls for it. Just a pass or two over a cut of meat and the Jaccard allows your favorite marinade to add flavor throughout the meat, not just the surface as before.

Large pans like this one need to be on large burners to keep their balance. They heat very evenly (no hot spot) they keep warm even after off the burner, so carryover cooking must be kept in mind, giving you the chance to finish other dishes while the one on this pan keep cooking in the pan alone.

Excellent product, I own other pans by Gordon and they are all excellent. I cook pretty much every day. Clean them right after use and they will last for ever. Very comfortable to sue handles. The best thing about them when it comes to money is that they are a high quality product for half the price of All-Clad brand, and they are built in the same way (high quality alluminum sandwiched between 18/10 stainless steel)

I was excited to receive this pan and quickly tried it out. The cakes came out effortless with just a spirits of spray oil.

If your not going for a donut shape or a mini bundt pan shape, it still doesn't look cute. It looks worse than a mini cupcake with hole in the middle.

The pan is neat as a novelty but it's constructed of thin metal so you have to keep moving it around as you cook to avoid burnt/raw spots, it's NOT nonstick despite what it claims (I advise having plenty of PAM handy) and the cheap plastic handle broke the first time I tried to wash it.

My girlfriend and I have used it (improvising a set of locking jaw pliers to replace the broken handle) a few times over the last couple weeks. It's fun to make little pig faced pancakes as long as you don't mind the fact that you have to stand right at the stove and make them one at a time.

I saw one of these at work and decided it was a good addition to my kitchen at home. It is built very well. It is mostly plastic, but it feels very solid--not flimsy. I agree the blade is a little hard to clean, but I usually just rinse it with the sink sprayer or insert a brush from the bottom. (The blade is sharp--I don't recommend trying to wash it using your hands.) We usually buy bagels at the bakery or donut shop and all of the ones we usually get fit in alright. (An oversized bagel might be a problem, but most normal bagels fit.) We also use it for slicing English muffins: you can hold the English muffin from the sides until the tip of the blade catches and then just slice down through. We have not had any problem with the muffins sticking to the blade, even with cinnamon raisin bagels. Works well and very safe if you use it correctly.

I first have to come clean, I used to mock people that needed help slicing a bagel in half. Then I had surgery on my right hand. And cut my elbow trying to slice a bagel.

I wound up getting two, one for work and one for home, and now I can at least feed myself breakfast. So for all those folks out there who, for whatever reason, need help slicing a bagel, this is great. Get one (or two), and feel no shame!
