Did You Know? … Fun Facts About Recycling
37% of American households recycle … regularly
Aluminum is one of the easiest and fastest materials to recycle.
Aluminum is the only material that is endlessly recyclable – without ever breaking down or compromising the quality of the metal.
Aluminum begins to melt at a phenomenally high 1220 degrees Fahrenheit — purifying the metal of any impurities.
Recycling not only transforms waste into valuable resources, but also benefits the environment by helping our air, water, and land stay cleaner.
Every minute of everyday, an average of 105,800 aluminum cans are recycled.
America recycled enough aluminum cans last year to stretch to the moon and back 8 times.
Americans use 85,000,000 tons of paper a year: about 680 pounds per person.
This is a great kitchen tool designed specifically as a simple and convenient way to keep foods together for quick and easy removal from cooking liquids.
Made from flexible, food-safe silicone, the Fusionbrands FoodPod™ is immersed into the cooking liquid and has a built-in grip that allows easy removal from the pot. There are three easy steps for using: fill the pod with food items, immerse into the cooking liquid and, when done, lift out of the pot. The water drains back into the pot and eliminates the use of a strainer. Now how easy it that!
It can be used to nest a dozen eggs for boiling, blanch veggies or, our favorite, hold the fixings for making chicken soup. We filled the food pod with carrots, onion, celery, parsley, parsnip and leeks. No more "fishing" in our chicken soup pot to remove this stuff when the soup is finished. We just lifted, drained and, “voilà” it was removed!
Product Description:
Foods are immersed and removed at the same time to ensure even cooking
Keeps foods together for quick and easy removal
Acts as a strainer and drains water back into the pot – lets you reserve the cooking water too!
Easily holds up to a dozen large eggs or several heads of broccoli (1-3/4 quart or 1-2/3 liter capacity)
Built-in grip clip allows for convenient removal from water and aids in boil over control
Non-stick silicone protects delicate foods and pot surfaces
Flexible to fit in any size pot for cooking and storing
Made of FDA/EU food-safe silicone and BPA-free nylon
The Kitchen Wizard. We think that the new third generation Ipad is amazing for just about any area of life. In fact, any of the 3 iPads are indispensible for us, especially in our busy kitchens. It is a brilliant resource to find recipes, look up ingredient substitutions, compare recipes, view measurement amounts, learn food history, discover new foods, download an app, read cookbooks, virtually travel the food world… and on and on.
If you are on a tight budget, (who isn’t!) consider ordering one of the earlier iPads from Gazelle.com. And don’t forget to protect your Ipad with Chefsleeve.com.
60 years of quality, dependability, lifetime value – “Likely the last mixer you will ever have to buy.” At this pre–Passover time of year, we look at our appliances, and often replace, update, or add to them. We had heard about the Bosch Universal Mixer from avid challah, bread and cake bakers, and became more familiar with it at AmericasMart Gift and Home show. It is an amazing mixer, and KosherEye has decided to feature it in depth in mid-April, following Passover.
For now though, we present it as our kitchen tool of the week – and suggest that if you are planning to replace your mixer, this is a perfect one to consider – at a convenient time to help with Passover food preparations… especially when making big batches of cakes, such as sponge and nut cakes, cookies, meringues, matzo balls..and more.
