I used to work at Nordic Ware and have tons of their sheet pans. They’ve never warped on me. I’ve even taken them straight from the freezer with cookie dough and put them in the oven. No problems!
I use a plastic magazine holder from dollar tree to hold all the smaller cutting boards. I just lay it on it’s side in the cupboard.
Get a better and less shaky camera. This is ridiculous it's 2021 not 1990.
Lisa is the best presenter on this channel. Thank you!! Very good information.
Great
Keep your eyes out at marshals, tj max or other like stores for all clad pans. That’s where I found my 2 & 4 quart All Clads
What do you guys think about Thermomix?
The audio is to low I cant understand you even with all my volume controls turned UP
The content of the video is great, but ATK please make sure your video editors either are listening to the video during editing OR they watch and listen to the entire video before sending it on to the next team. This video is nearly silent.
Thank you for answering my question, greetings to you and Hannah!
What are your thoughts on cleaning sheet pans with oven cleaner?
Having had RV’s over the years, you learn real quick to think outside the box! I have always said, where there is a will……..!
I love Lisa's content! If she were to come out with vlogs, I would watch all the time. Meme reviews, reaction videos, Lisa watching tv or movies: I'd show up for all of it.
Everyone at ATK seems really nice, and I enjoy their content, I just jive with Lisa a little extra well.
I have one burner that works on my stove, and I don't like stinking up the house with cooking smells, so I use an induction cooktop in the garage for most cooking, except quick scrambled eggs and such. For storing my cutting boards – I got one of those staggered peg racks that sits on top of the fridge, and it holds cutting boards and skillet lids upright and easy to grab. I'll be making a hot pepper chutney tomorrow, in the garage, lol.
Thank you Lisa I always enjoy your segments on ATK you do a wonderful job!
Hey Lisa have you seen how how high the prices have gone up for a lot of these kitchen gadgets since you guys tested them? You're a pick for best best small stand mixer the kitchenaid classic plus Isn't $210 anymore but in a lot of places it's over $400! In point target had it on sale for $389 last weekend a.nd was completely sold out
Costco is currently selling a set of 3 (Q2 1/2 sheets and Q1 1/8 sheet) Nordic Ware gold baking sheets for $16.99. Do you like these as much as the other Nordic Ware pans?
I use rubbery shelf liner between my pans. I got magnetic strips for knifes on the inside of cupboard doors. I built a door size stuff rack on the back of the pantry door.
I keep small appliances in the coat closet above and below the coats.
I live in a townhouse. A neighbor did a remodel and ditched all the old upper cabinet that is exactly what I have in my kitchen. I put wheels on it and cleaned it up. I put a piece of peg board on one end when I need more counter space I pull that's away from the wall and wheel it toward my L shaped counter space to make a temporary U shaped counter.
Thank you ATK for providing us with educational content for free.
it would take longer, but if you really want to use a 2q sauce pan and the burner is too big you could put either a metal plate that would conduct heat evenly or you could get a smaller cast iron skillet that does fit and put the sauce pan on it. it's not ideal, but it would be safer
what about a diffuser for small pans?
