Riz au Lait: The Frenchman's Ultimate Comfort Food
I am not a huge fan of silicone bakeware because I prefer both the stability and browning abilities of my more traditional metal and glass pans. I do, however, appreciate the nonstick factor that silicone has. Consequently, I love using my silpat whenever I'm not using parchment paper, particularly when working with sticky things, like sugars and candies. It should have occurred to me sooner that this same nonstick feature would prove itself to be extremely useful in other areas of cooking, such as working with doughs. I am referring to silicone rolling pins, which are fantastic for preparing cookie doughs and just about anything else that needs to be rolled out. I was able to try one out at a friend's house this past week (just like the one pictured here) while we were making some sugar cookies and it worked perfectly. I'm attached to my wooden French rolling pin, but I think I'll have to consider an upgrade now that I know there are French-style silicone pins, as well.

How to Throw a Dim Sum Party
5-19-2006 @8:50PM Angelica said... When browning isn't a necessity. Put the silicone bakeware into a rigid pan ex: 8" silicone cake pan into a 9". It works wonders and there is no worry of a spill or breakage. I have never had a problem with through heating and even cooking.
Just a hint! :)
