    Not actually cooking tonight, but I do have a question which involves cooking (and couldn't think of another thread to put this in )

    Have you ever used silicone pans? I've seen one for muffins and another for cakes and I'm so tempted to get one! But I'm just not sure as to whether they're actually worth it...

    thanks

    I know I'll sound zany, but I personally don't trust them. There is just something about the old fashioned stainless steel and glass that appeals to me in that they are not chemicals, nor are they chemically treated, which is an issue to me. And I have to wonder, you know? Anyhow, that is my thought, Vheissu. I am sure that many people do use the silicone stuff -- I've heard that with that kind of cookware the food just 'pops' out of the pans and they are easy to clean. But I am suspicious, je suppose ...

    Thanks Kiz. To tell you the truth, stainless steel ones do have a certain something more...traditional let's say. I was just curious about the silicone ones because I don't know anyone who's ever used one.
    I think I might have to fork out whatever the price is for a steel one, since I do like baking and it's not going to go to waste....

    Probably having chicken (boneless/skinless) baked in tomato basil sauce in the oven with a layer of mozzella cheese melted on top - this is my old standby, but at least I grew the basil; then froze it in containers with sauce and other herbs and tasty ingredients. The flavor is really good, being home grown basil. The whole meal is so easy to whip up and I usually make angel hair pasta to go with it...just use a little sauce on that.

    I have used silverstone frying pans, if that is what you two have been talking about. I don't think they are bad for you, if you make sure you use them as directed - I only have one actually and it is new - a fry pan - which I make my eggs in, for breakfast. Cleanup is a breeze. If you set the heat too high and burn the silverstone coating, then it is bad for you; and you want to avoid older pans where the silverstone begins to chip off or flake up...no one wants to eat that stuff...that would be a health hazzard. I buy a new one immediately, when any bit of wear begins to appear; they are not that expensive; one will last you a long time if used correctly. For other type pans, I use only stainless steel and glass. For in the oven I use Corningware of Pyrex generally.

    Veggie curry!!!

    First: chop and sautee your favourite selection of vegetables in olive oil.

    Then: coat bottom of pan heated on medium heat with curry paste of your choosing. Then add coconut milk and stir to create a sauce. Add veggies (and meat, if you like) and tofu, cook until piping hot, then serve on bed of basmati rice.
    Naked except for a cigarette, you let your mind drift and forget your disbelief. Feel the chill down your back and the flutter of wings through dandelion fields, and forget the pull of gravity in a night without stars.

    I lack eloquence and commitment to my arguments. They are half baked, and I will begin passionately, and then abandon them.
