Book review: Cookbook The French Slow Cooker by Michele Scicolone


 
This is a very good cookbook with a lot of flavorful recipes.

I purchased a used cookbook on Amazon for the first time. The book arrived in good condition, but I was surprised by a sticker on the spine with the used bookstore seller's name. I shouldn't have to deal with removing the sticker and sticker residue from a book. A business card in the envelope would have been so much better!

Product review: Winco Stainless Steel Round Egg Ring for eggs and pancakes


 
The ring is made out of stainless steel and has no non-stick covering (I am avoiding non-stick cookware due to the release of toxic fumes). I oil the pan inside the ring and the sides of the ring with a brush, and it works pretty well - minimal leaking and no sticking. The only problem I had was that it cut through the paper envelope it was mailed in and got bent (both the handle and the circle became an oval). I decided I could live with the bending imperfections, but I wish it were mailed in a box instead. It should have been obvious that sharp metal objects would not get along with a paper envelope.
