Seafood Soup Recipe + #ReadyChefGo Review - Real Italian Kitchen - Episo...

Ahhh... to steam in the oven. Wait. Say what?

That's what I thought when I first found out about the cooking bags by Ready Chef Go. Why would I steam in the oven? Well they have their reasons for thinking it's a good idea. Watch the video and find out!



Ok. Now that you've watched it, what do you think? Will this be a useful novelty to add to your cooking utensils or will it be another half used box that sits on your shelf?

I will definitely use this for soups and stocks, but not in the microwave and not to save time, that's for sure.

And to be honest, another thing that bothers me about this is the one time use of the bags. You know I don't like to waste, and this is a lot of plastic (or whatever these bags are made out of) that they are releasing in the environment!

So I'll give it a solid 2/5, because the quality of the steamed food is outstanding, but it looses stars when it comes to being environmentally friendly and for daily use.

I hope this was helpful!

LA Chef BBQ Grill Mat Honest Review - Real Italian Kitchen - Episode 107








Ok, so.



You know how much I like kitchen gadgets right?



This company called LA Chef, sent me one of their Grill Mat to review and I ended up buying a second one for my mother to use at her restaurant www.bagnomargherita.com... Yes. So.



You can watch the full video review for tips on how to use the product to its fullest potential, it took a little of trial and error to figure it out so I suggest you watch it.



I should also add (which doesn't say in the video) that you should try to always use the same side in contact with the grill and the other side with the meat, because the side that makes direct contact with the heat source looses the non-stick feature. I marked it with the tip of a knife .



You will like this product if:

-You cook outside a lot

-You're tired of cleaning your high temperature grill all the time

-You love to bake

-You hate to waste



I hope you'll enjoy the video and some of the other video recipes I made using the La Chef Grill Mat.
