I feel the same way about my pressure cooker. Buying one was sooooo liberating… but do you find that food tastes different when cooked in it?

Hmm, have you ever found a good place to pick up some of these items? I wouldn’t want to hit the local discount store, it’s hard to really know the quality of things there.

I’d have to say that I love stainless steel pots and pans most of all but they have to have a copper or aluminum base. I would love to have all copper cookware because I just love the look of it…but I know that I couldn’t see myself sitting there polishing them every day to keep them looking good. I also like grill pans as I like to see the grill mark on meats and it also stops the meats from stewing in their own juice.

I feel incredibly ignorent. I’ve never seen or heard of Kadhais before! I’ll have to check out kitchen shops more often!

I’m definitely a cast iron cook. I have 2 on my stove top that seldom put away because I use them daily…for almost everything. I’m curious about the Kadhai. Is it much different in circumference or depth to the Chinese wok? Or, maybe what I think is a Chinese wok is actually a Kadhai?!

speaking of scary kitchen gadgets, does anyone know what to do with a crockpot? i’ve ‘inherrited’ one of a friend 2 months ago, and i’m still unsure how to use it… many recipes require adding cans of soup, which i don’t find appealing at all… any good recies? pls leave them in the comment section of my blog, if you can, and if that’s ok with meena. thanks.
