what your intentions for your vegetables

Your vegetable slicer doesn't have to be the simple mandolin version. There are much more complicated and expensive varieties from which to choose. The good news is that with more expense and complexity, comes more interesting and creative uses. The turning slicer will command a heftier price tag but it is a much more complex piece of equipment and deserves the price it commands. With this nifty tool you can create paper thin potato chips, miles and miles of carrot strings, and cucumbers sliced so thin you can read a paper through them (well almost). At any rate, you can get varying degrees of thickness in your slices as well as create decorative garnishes that are sure to please with these incredible slicing tools.

No matter what your intentions for your vegetables there is a slicer out there that should be able to accommodate baking recipes  your culinary needs. Take great care and caution in selecting a vegetable slicer that will be most suitable to your cooking skills and needs.

Molasses is a less refined liquid derived from cane sugar or sugar beets. Brown sugar is made by adding 1-3 tablespoons of molasses back into plain white sugar. I never buy brown sugar any more, but keep molasses on hand and add more or less of it to get the light or dark brown sugar called for in a recipe. That way I don't have to deal with that rock solid brown sugar lump in my pantry.


Baking pizza on the grill is very popular these days. Whether you use a gas grill or grill your pizza on a charcoal grill, you will find the result delicious.

You can grill pizza any time of the year, but most of us do the bulk of our grilling in the outdoors during summer. One of the biggest benefits of summer grilling is not having turn on your kitchen oven and therefore not having to heat up your house.
