Meatloaf Without The Fat Bath

Xtraordinary Home Products Nonstick Meatloaf Pan

Meatloaf may be delicious, but that deliciousness comes at a price. While baking in the oven, meatloaf spends a good amount of time stewing in it’s own juices. While fat certainly adds flavor, it is not wanted in quantity. Like a burger on the grill dripping fat down away from the food, the Nonstick Meatloaf Pan gives grease an escape–other than the bottom of the oven. And hey, if you miss all that flavor, you can always make gravy out of the drippings.

Used Cookware As Art

From the book Devour, by Christopher Jonassen.

There is no doubt that cuisine can at times transport one to another place, but that place doesn’t necessarily have to be terrestrial. Proof can be seen in Christopher Jonassen’s book, Devour. What may look like a faraway world is in fact something else quite down to earth: pots and/or pans. Cookware may only last so long, but given immortality through photography, close-up photos offer a new perspective, giving us a glimpse into a world that no longer exists. Or at least should not be used to cook any more meals.

Inside-Out Waffles

Nordic Ware Egg Waffle Pan

Waffles are well known not only for being delicious, but also for having a distinctive shape. Every delicious pocket waits to be filled with syrup, powdered sugar or anything else eaters can come up with. But would it still be a waffle without the pockets? The Nordic Ware Egg Waffle Pan says yes. The uniquely-shaped pan creates inside-out waffles, better known as ‘egg-waffles’. Instead of drowning waffle-pockets in syrup, the idea is to roll it up–with or without a filling–and take it to go. Or better yet, tear apart the individual ‘eggs’ and share for a unique snack.

One Egg At A Time

Sometimes all you want is one egg. Even the fast food joints haven’t (yet?) invented the Double Egg McMuffin. There’s a reason Mother Nature made the egg a perfectly reasonable single sized serving. I don’t know what that reason would be as you can’t really make an omelet out of just one egg, but so be it; sometimes one egg at a time is OK.
