Chef's Planet 401 Nonstick Toaster Oven Liner


It's toast...3

I have a full-size liner in my over but have to keep it on one of the oven racks rather than in the bottom. It does a good job catching drips and helping to keep the oven clean. So when I saw one sized for a toaster oven I bought it. I have two problems with this liner. The first is that it doesn't fit my toaster oven. The second (a HUGE problem according to my husband) is that it isn't as reflective as the bottom of the toaster oven so that toast comes out much darker on the top than on the bottom. The main reason I purchased a new toaster oven is because out old one was giving us very uneven results. The new one worked great until we put the liner in. (And took it back out within a couple of days.) I would use this product if I were baking something messy or top-browning something that might drip but it doesn't work for us for day-to-day use.More detail ...

DeMarle 2409 Silpat 11-5/8-by-16-1/2-Inch Nonstick Silicone Baking Mat


A must have for bakers5

I think I own one of almost every kitchen gadget known to man and used to rely on parchment to bake cookies without worrying about sticking. I got a Silpat for my birthday and love it. I use it for cookies just like the other reviewers mention but find it is most useful for kneeding bread dough or rolling out sugar cookies or pie crusts. No more over or under-flouring my kneeding/rolling surface because I can just peel off the dough if it gets stuck! Pie crusts transfer without cracking. My bread dough is amazing because I never over-flour which can ruin bread dough. Clean up is very fast. I store mine rolled up in an old paper towel tube in a drawer.More detail ...
