    Wound Up With Tramontina

    I have a glass cooktop and use my enameled cast iron on it. You just have to be careful moving it around. Congrats on your Tramontina find, it sounds like you did really well!

    Fantastic skillet find!!

    All Clad is made in the US, however their lids and non clad items are made overseas. The boxes inform you of this as well.. I think the panini grill pan I have as a specialty anodized pan is made overseas.. the other tri ply stainless and ltd clad pieces are made in the states. The website will...

    Fantastic skillet find!!

    I had several of the technique ss disk bottom pans for years and they held up quite well. I've been upgrading for a while now, but have mixed in a few of their tri ply non stick pans as they are reasonably priced. They are manufactured in Thailand. Enjoy.. and if you want to give the fully clad...

    Your first cookbooks

    My first cookbook.. I was about 11 or 12 ys old. The Muppet Cookbook! :) Actually had a recipe for lemon chicken in there that was quite good and easy for someone young to roast a whole chicken. That is .. once I learned that "pat the chicken dry" did not mean hold the bird up by the legs and...

    enameled cast iron dutch oven and a thermometer worked great for me. 2.5" of oil = a beautiful batch of fried chicken!

    Recipe organization?

    Yes, I am still liking it. I downloaded the free trial from cnet.com You can print a cookbook and you can make multiple cookbooks and it comes with plenty of pre loaded as well. I've just ordered the full blown software and should then be able to import files as well. *you can't import while...

    Recipe organization?

    Talk about timely on finding this post. I had picked up the software "Cook'n" but read the return policy afterward that if I open the software it is non-returnable. Makes sense. Considering it was over $60, I wanted to try it. I found on cnet.com where I could download a 30 day trial. So, I...

    What is the best griddle for pancakes, eggs, etc?

    If you want one you can throw in the dishwasher, maybe look at an enamel coated one. Kohls.com has quite a variety and all kinds of 15% off right now. The all clad one is anodized.. which is not recommended for the dishwasher. Some have put their anodized cookware in the washer and state it...

    I'm not allowed to post links but it's easy enough to find on the Williams Sonoma website. williams-sonoma.com search for frittata .

    Does anyone have a hinged omelette pan?

    I know you said you have your pan and enjoy it.. but I recently got an email from Williams Sonoma regarding their Calphalon Unison Slide Nonstick Frittata pans.. looked interesting to me.. and might suit this need as well. It's two pans that interlink at the handles and can multitask to be used...

    Porcelain enamel vs stainless steel vs hard-anodized cookware

    I have one Rachel Ray anodized nonstick sandwich pan and it works fine for sandwiches, bacon and eggs. I received it as a gift. What I've read online is that the anodized line is made by Anolon, and they have their own version of some of her oval pans. You can compare them over on cooking dot...

    Knife Storage

    I LIKE that one! Looks like the conversion of 369 sek dollars to US is about $52. coinmill (dot) com gave me that conversion rate. Shipping rates are about $12.50 us. I'll stick with the one I have for now.. but really nice looking items.

    Is there a difference in the brand of muffin tins?

    I know this post is old.. but as browsing through.. thought I'd share still, even if I'm a day late and dollar short.. at least! I recently found this one at TJMaxx for $19 .. I was actually shopping around for a new muffin pan and couldn't resist. I haven't had opportunity to try it out yet...

    French Baumalu copper cookware

    Thanks Paul! I've seen your user name on another site or two. Always full of good info! This particular post is what led me to this board.. it's a bit difficult to find info on Baumalu cookware. My local cooking store had to do some looking up as they were unfamiliar with this line as well...

    Serrated Knives

    ChefJune, I don't understand that either. If the electric or manual guides the manufacturers sell are so bad for them.. why do they sell them? I've just been debating on getting either the 15/20 electric sharpener or the Shun sharpener for the Shuns and a separate one for the Germans. I know...

    Cooking on Glasstop stoves

    I'm not sure what brand yours is.. but I actually got mine brand new never used at 30% off in a Sears outlet room. It's an odd size and thankfully someone ordered one and never picked it up. Worked out for me. Just a thought. :smile:

    Acetone/Nail Polish Remover is ok? Wow.. this has been a most informative thread! Like a couple others.. I had been debating on trying a copper pot/pan and came across the baumalu line a few times at the local TJ Maxx stores. Today I broke down and picked up the small sauce pot with lid for...
