Want: BonJour Creme Brulee Pro Culinary Torch
I often find myself in my kitchen thinking, I really would like to light that on fire. No, I'm not kidding! Some things are just awesome with a char on it before you cook it! Then the other day I ran across this http://traceysculinaryadventures.blogspot.com/2012/01/toasted-marshmallow-ice-cream.html
Are you joking? This is heaven, right? So after seeing this, that did it. I took myself on over to Amazon and put this bad boy on my wish list! I'd like to point out that my birthday is in two weeks, husband ;)
Need: KitchenAid Professional 600 series
I do a lot of cakes and bread. This 6 quart, 575 watt motor would certainly be handy during these larger batches.
Have: KitchenAid Artisan Design 5 quart stand mixer
This is the bad boy that gets my everyday needs done. I, of course, use it with all my baking and the glass bowl is great to have since I can put it in the microwave.
Wish I Never Bought: NONSTICK COOKWARE
Sure it's safe...when used properly and safely. How many of you know how to do that? The recommended temperatures on which to use it have actually been lowered and unfortunately don't coincide with how to properly cook our foods. A simple taste test will show you just how much of the chemicals leaks into your food. So now I use titanium cookware. The downside to this is the expense. Titanium is pretty pricey, so I've kept just a few of my "better" nonstick skillets until I can phase them out. Bear with me ;) I can assure you everything else is boxed up though!
What are your thoughts on any of the above products?! Please share!!
Oh I love that you can buy kitchen appliances in such gorgeous colours these days, it's heaven, not that I can cook or even use them lol :)
ReplyDeleteHa! Well I'm sure there's probably SOMETHING you can cook!! Everyone has that one thing they can cook!

ReplyDeleteGet some titanium!! There's no ruining those bad boys ;) I briefly glanced at the pinterest game. That was the scavenger hunt, right? I'll have to check it out!
DeleteHi! I received a Kitchen Aide Mixer for Christmas a couple of years ago and I was so excited because I've wanted one forever...but I still haven't used it! I better get baking some cookies soon!
ReplyDeleteI'm new from the hop - I'm with Moms & Munchkins (http://www.momsandmunchkins.ca/)
Hi, Cheryl! As many years as I've been cooking, I don't know how I have lived without it! Once you start, you become hooked :) Which one do you have?
