I have a similar grill platter that I use all the time to warm tortillas and to saute onions and peppers. Mine is limited to the stovetop, but this platter was made to cook on the stove, in the oven, in the broiler, and on the grill.

Made out of Armetale metal, this grill platter can withstand temperatures up to 1000 degrees. I’ve yet to find a recipe that requires setting a temperature over 525º. Available at cookingtoys.com.

Although I am no professional chef, I do appreciate the value of this measuring spoon/mini-scale. For instance, there were many times where I added a “pinch” of an ingredient to a sauce without knowing exactly how much I put in. The result turned out fine. But every time I would make this sauce, it would turn out differently each time because of the variable factor of the measurement.

This measuring spoon was designed to weigh solids or liquids from 0.1 to 300g (0.005 to 10.5oz). That’s quite a spread in measurements! Available at Pro-Idee United Kingdom.

Every once in a great while, I’ll treat my family to chocolate covered whopper-sized ice cream sandwiches called Its-It. What’s so special about them besides the chocolate? The big oatmeal cookies that sandwich vanilla ice cream.

Now, you can create your own specialty ice cream sandwiches with Pampered Chef’s Ice Cream Sandwich Maker. Cut your cookies to fit the cylinder, add a scoop or two of your favorite ice cream, push the cylinder up and out comes your sandwich. The rubber ring cleans the cylinder each time its used. However, handwashing is recommended. Makes about 3-inch diameter sandwiches.
