Presto 23-Quart Pressure Cooker/Canner

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cookware and Baking
from: Presto


This is probably more pressure cooker than most people need, but it works wonderfully. The gauge on top is exremely useful to monitor precise temp for canning and such. The only drawback is its size. It barely fit on my stove under the microwave. Be sure and measure before you buy.

We are a family always looking for anti toxins products and pyrex is far better than using aluminum, platic, teflon or metal containers. If you are the healthy type of human being and like to cook free to toxins pyrex is the way to go............ cheers mate, live longer, eat safer!!!!

Baker's Edge Nonstick Edge Brownie Pan

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cookware and Baking
from: Bakers Edge


Well I finally got a present for my wife she reaaaaaally likes. In her words "the best present ever". I just got this from a Buffalo NY gourmet shop for our 6th wedding anniversary. You know the 6th anniversary where you traditionally get something made of cast aluminum that can create tasty chocolate treats, that 6th anniversary.
Anyways, she just made her first batch of brownies with this pan and they couldn't have been better. Slightly less bake time too, chewy in the middle and many inches of crispier edges. There is NO sticking either and they include the perfect sized plastic spatula.

We will have brownies much more often I am sure. :p

Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized 2-1/2-Quart Shallow Saucepan with Lid

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cookware and Baking
from: Calphalon


I buy my cookware individually so I have different types like tri-ply stainless steel, nonstick, and hard anodized from various brands. Each has its pros and cons. I've had this pan for several months now and what I like about it is it feels solid and heavy duty. It is in fact heavy so it may be unwieldy for some but its heft gives me a sense of quality. I also think it's a pretty nice looking piece. I'm happy with my purchase.

Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized 9-Piece Cookware Set

from: Calphalon

May 20, 2005
I only know the Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized products manufactured in China, so I cannot compare products to the USA days of yore. I started with a 2-1/2-quart covered shallow saucepan and liked it so much I bought another. I bought the roaster pan, the 12" everyday pan and then a beautiful 8-1/2-quart pan (all on sale at Amazon for great prices). Each serves me well.

Needing to replace some really worn Circulon non-stick pans, I recently bought the Calphalon 9-piece set on sale at Amazon for $139.99. For the money, it is a steal. This would be a lovely wedding gift, and it could easily be separated for gifts. If you are building a kitchen, start here. I have scrubbed these with Bon Ami when I goofed or there was some minor discoloration. ... Read More:

KitchenAid Gourmet Essentials 12-Piece Hard-Anodized Cookware Set

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cookware and Baking
from: KitchenAid


Although I am well past middle-age, this is my first "set" of cookware. I have a new glass-top range so I decided to replace my old cookware. I gave 4 stars because the 12" saute pan seems to wobble when cooking in it. I'm not sure it is completely flat on the bottom. I am very happy with the other pieces. They distribute heat well and they are very easy to wash up.

Lodge Logic 10-1/4-Inch Pre-Seasoned Skillet

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cookware and Baking
from: Lodge Logic


I own the best hard-anodized aluminum pans - Anolon Allure. But this skillet is for high temperature browning without worry. The non-stick coatings, if turned up too high will emit toxic fumes, especially to birds. Cast iron does not.
Cooking a steak in a nonstick pan you need to let it soak in water for 10 minutes and then use a non-metal potscrubber brush.

Cooking a steak in a nonstick pan you need to let it soak in water for 10 minutes and then use a metal potscrubber brush, then wipe it with a paper towel and place it on a burner for 30 seconds to let any water evaporate. Then very lightly coat it with oil.
Also it best for the heat source to be under ALL the surface area of the bottom of the pan. Using an infrared temperature sensor ... Read More:

Calphalon Commercial Hard-Anodized 12-Inch Everyday Pan with Lid

Childrens Toy Shop > Kitchen & Housewares > Cookware and Baking
from: Calphalon


This is the first Calphalon pan I have purchased. After hearing how wonderful Calphalon was, I couldn't believe how poorly it preformed. It seems no matter what I prepare in this pan, it sticks and is diffcult to clean. I now rarely use it and know if it was easier to clean I would use it often. Very disappointed.
