4 Pots And Pans For Your Kitchen

There are numerous pots and pans on the market. And if you watch a lot of cooking shows, it seems like you need an entire department store’s worth of cookware to create a delicious meal.

Well, we don’t think you need tons of pots and pans cluttering up your cabinets. With just these four kitchen staples, you can make anything!

Stockpot

You’ll use this for steaming, simmering, boiling and blanching a variety of pasta, vegetable and soup dishes. Look for a hefty stockpot with a lid and two handles, and at least an 8-quart capacity.

Saucepan

The ultimate multitasker! You can use this for cooking soup, rice, noodles and much more. A quality saucepan will have a handle with a strong connection to the pan and a lid that fits snuggly. A two-quart saucepan is your best bet to use for a variety of recipes.

Sauté pan/skillet

A must-have for searing, frying and sautéing things like meat, veggies, sauces and one-dish dinners. You’ll want a pan with a thick construction to avoid hot spots. The most common size is a 10-inch pan, and you could go with a non-stick finish. Also, the entire thing should be oven-proof in case you need to broil a dish.

Rimmed baking sheet

These aren’t just for baking cookies; a rimmed baking sheet is also used to roast and cook vegetables, fries and freezer-friendly meals. You’ll want a heavy baking sheet to get an even distribution of heat.

Now that you have the basics, you’re ready to be a kitchen master!

How To Use Your Oven Racks

Thanksgiving is over, but there’s plenty of holiday cooking and baking in your future.

That means you’re using your oven more than ever.

You’ve heard that different dishes should be placed on specific oven racks for optimal roasting, baking or broiling. But how do you remember what goes where?

It’s time for the Rule of Thirds!

1. Top Rack or Upper Third — Use this space for dishes which need browning on the top. This includes casseroles, crisps, gratins, meringue pies and broiled dishes.

2. Middle Rack — Smack dab in the middle of your oven, this position allows heat to circulate evenly. The middle rack is useful for baked dishes where you need only one rack. If you don’t know where you should place a dish, the middle rack is a good default.

3. Bottom Rack or Bottom Third — Dishes that need a crispy, brown bottom go here. Food such as pizzas, breads and fruit pies are best on the bottom rack.

Remember! If you’re cooking more than one dish at the same time, place them on the top and bottom racks and rotate halfway through the cooking time.

We hope this handy information helps you learn how different parts of your oven work, and why it matters.

Bake Your Best Treats In A New Oven

You love a fresh scone or tender donuts, accompanied by a steaming hot cup of coffee each morning.

At your favorite local bakery, nothing compares to the friendly smiles of other customers and “regulars,” and the pleasant conversation with the employees.

But what if you’re asked to make your own baked goods?

Then the fear sets in.

You have books full of cherished family recipes, but haven’t touched them in months. Now, your little one has come home from school with a flyer requesting parents participate in the first bake sale of the year.

You love to bake. Your anxiety isn’t due to a lack of skills, but an old, poorly functioning oven.

The oven you have now is acceptable, but it bakes unevenly and your food simply isn’t cooked as well as it used to be. You’ve put off purchasing a new oven in hopes that you could get by with what you have.

But not anymore.

Fortunately, now is the right time to buy! You’ll receive up to $400 when you bundle eligible LG kitchen major appliance purchases.

So if your microwave is also bugging you, use this deal to buy and save more.

Now that sounds as sweet as one of those delicious donuts!

How To Grill Indoors With Your Broiler

Oregon is known for its unpredictable weather. A beautiful summer day could start with sunshine and end in rain, which puts a major damper on your barbecue plans. How are you supposed to fire up the grill when it’s pouring rain?

Fortunately, you can get the effects of grilling by using your regular indoor appliances.

The Broiler Is Your Best Friend

The broiler is the closest thing in your kitchen to a grill. But while a grill heats from the bottom, the broiler uses a heating element that gives off heat from the top down.

But before you heat up the broiler, remember this:

Rack positioning. The higher you place the rack, the faster your food will cook. If you want to sear something quickly, place the rack closer to the heating element.

Use the right level. Broilers have two levels: high and low. The high setting is good for food you want browned, but broil on low for thicker foods you want cooked through.

The right equipment. Do not use materials such as parchment paper near the broiler. Before you broil, make sure your equipment is broiler safe.

Don’t let an unexpected rainy afternoon ruin your barbecue plans. By using your broiler, you can get the taste of the grill anytime.
