Re: Non-stick coated pans vs other pans

[Guest guest]

Thanks to both of you who replied to my post! :-) You've both helped

me to feel much better about the whole thing! Thank you!

I did go out and get some glass loaf pans today, and threw the non-

stick one straight in the trash! I can't believe it did that, as

the pan seemed perfectly fine on the sides, no blemishes there

whatsoever, when I first made the bread!

What other options are there for cookie sheets, besides those

pampered chief (and other brands) stones? I wonder with the stones

if anything leaches out of them, like lead or anything else?

Perhaps the stones are the safest thing for cookies though? What

do all the rest of you use? I suppose it would work to use a

rectangular glass casserole dish....

Janiece,

You can find stainless-steel muffins pans and jelly roll pans from

http://www.piercechefmart.com

I also got some thick stainless steel plates from a home supply

store, like linens & things and use them in the oven for cookies or

baking meats.

I use glass loaf pans for baking breads.

I use good quality plain old cookie sheets/jelly roll pans. Two of

mine are aluminum, two are probably a mixed metal (because they are

shiny). I always use parchment paper on them.

I'm not sure this is the perfect solution (I like the stainless

steel idea! Thanks for the website Monika), but I decided its better

than the non-stick pans for us.

I use glass whenever I can (cake pans, roasting meats, breads).

I heard you can get heavy duty stainless steel cookie sheets for

cheap at a restaurant supply store as opposed to buying cheaper

quality ones that don't last long at a home supply store. I have an

old cookie sheet that I don't really worry about because I use

parchment paper. I only use it for cookies the they never touch an

uncovered part of the cookie sheet. I feel this is sufficient.
