What I needed was a non-stick bowl.
One day we were at the kitchen shop in our local mall that was holding a quitting business sale. One of the things they had was a Nordic Ware nonstick double boiler insert! O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!
Now we get to eat all of our eggs and cleanup is easy!One Friday after a tough day at work I was not looking forward to cooking our eggs. I was beat. Somehow Jerry must have known because he was all set to fix the eggs, breakfast patties and toast. He had recently gotten a bunch of herbs and spices from Penzeys Spices and was going to try something new. He added some Fox Point Seasoning to the eggs. I was in heaven! Not only did I not have to cook but I got to eat a delicious new dish.
I try to remember to add Fox Point when I cook the eggs. I remembered tonight. Here they are:
This is:- Six eggs
- 4 tbs. half and half
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. Fox Point
Jerry cooked us some potatoes and onions. Mmmmmm!The eggs were cooked on our new Fagor portable induction burner. Induction cooking is supposed to be the most energy efficient way to cook. Almost all of the energy it uses goes into heat in the pan. Gas and electric stoves heat the air and that heats the pan and a lot of the heat just misses the pan. So maybe we're using a little less energy now. In any case we have a new gadget!

Those eggs look mighty yummy. And no extensive cleanup! No kitchen should be without one.
And Thanks to Bobbie who gave me a Penzeys Spices gift basket that included Fox Point. I originally started using it on pasta, but have found it to be good in a lot of dishes. I also found out it's best kept in the refrigerator so it doesn't cake up.
Yum! I'm headed to Penzey's right now!
Well, I did my eggs today at the Frontier Restaurant, wrapped in a fresh tortilla with great green chile and cheese. And I got to eat with Kevin and Randy and their friend. What luck to run into good friends/former co-workers on Sunday.
I have loved Penzeys since Bill's father ran the place.
So how does the induction cooktop work? what generates the heat? Is that a plug?
Electromagnetism generates the heat on an induction cooktop. It's magic. Here's a page that explains it all to you.
The eggs and potatoes sound so good right now, and they looked even better. The potatoes match your lovely counter! :o)
I just emailed my sis in San Jose to see if she can get any of the Fox Point for me in Menlo Park!
It's less expensive than ordering from Calgary, AB!
