Durable Pans For Baking

Hey everyone,

Quick question...

My mom gave me a wonderful heavy-duty (nice) baking pan. I would like to have a variety of nice pans for baking and cooking. I'm wanting pans to bake donuts, frenchbread, English muffins, hotdog/hamburger buns: basically, I need the pans I can't find at Wal-mart.

I really would like not to get cheap pans. If I made a small investment in a new "expensive" pan every few months, before long I would have a collection of really durable bakeware.

Currently, I use whatever Wal-mart (or where-ever) has on sale. But it warps, stains, and doesn't bake evenly.

So, can I ask any of you "serious" bakers out there to share where you purchase you products?

Thanks in advance. -Julie :)

I like to shop at Linens and Things because they are moderately priced. I bought Farberware baking pans and sheets and I like them. They are much heavier in weight than cheap pans, but they are not really expensive. Linens and Things also have sales often. I got my bake ware buy one get one free! :D

Thanks Jenny! I will have to see if our closest mall has a Linens and Things. If not, maybe I can order on-line. Affordable is wonderful! I've been paying cheap prices, but also getting cheaply made products. I would love to find an affordable line of bakeware/pans that has a good, heavy quality and good variety of products. Thanks for your tip! B)

King Arthur Flour and Baking Co. is a good source.

I bought some really nice pans at The Home Store. Also saw them at TJ Maxx. There were two brands that looked exactly alike. One was Calphalon and I cant remember the name of the other one. They were 5.99, 7.99 and 9.99 for the largest cookie sheet sized one. They were grayish silver colored, very heavy and easy to clean. I went back and got a 9x9 one. I love them.

That's awesome...I hadn't even thought of TJ Maxx, Ross, or Marshall's (all those stores are similar and in my area). When we sell our house (and I have a little money), I'm going shopping!!!!!!! :D

I second the King Arthur Flour website for high quality pans for all kinds of bread shapes, but be warned they will put you on their mailing list and send you their catalog full of pictures of glutenous bread! It's like celiac porn. :lol:

I have one Calphalon pot and I love it! I bought one for me and one for my son's daycare provider when he first went gluten free. I don't remember how much I paid exactly, but I think it was $20+ for a little pot. Those pans are great, if you find them at a discount store buy all you can! (unless you live in Portland Oregon. :lol: )

I'm a big fan of Chicago Metallic for cake pans. It's heavy duty aluminum and they hold up really well.

Lee,

"Celiac porn"...you're killing me! :P HA! :lol:

Jenny,

$20+ for a little pot? For that much, I want a pot big enough to bathe in ;) or a 14k gold pot that I can weld into jewlry. :P

gluten-free mom,

I'm gonna google "Chicago Metallic." Thanks for the info.! B)

Blessings and baking,

-Julie

What about Stoneware? I only use Pampered Chef stoneware now since I am hooked. I have never had food bake so evenly before. I also like Paderno pans.

I do have a King Arthur deep dish stone pizza pan and I love it. There was recently an article in The Washington Post about a lady who found out that she had celiacs and the pizza recipe was so close to regular. Nothing liek any of the mixes or frozen ones I have tried.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped...

One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!
