What is stoneware: Definition and 200 Discussions

OK my fellow Cheffers! I have a friend who cannot get the fish smell out of her stoneware. I told her to make a baking soda paste and leave it on the stone for an hour. Will that help or is there a better solution?

Now that I have some PC bucks to spend, I'm considering completing my cookbook collection, and wanted to know what everyone thinks of the Delightful Desserts and Stoneware Inspirations cookbooks? Are both worth getting? I've seen the Stoneware Inspirations one but don't remember which recipes in...

At my show tonight my host asked me about her classic rectangle baker that's flaking. She pulled it out and it's entirely black except for the inside bottom that is black AND natural. Natural only because the years of seasoning is flaking off. She said she was stirring a macaroni and cheese...

I heard someone talking on a training call about a cake that you put the cake icing and the cake batter in a stoneware fluted pan and it all cooks up at once. I wasn't sure what cake recipe this would be talking about. I looked at the recipes file. I found a couple "Microwave Miracle Cakes"...

A friend of a friend has asked if I would try to find her this discontinued Pampered Chef Family Heritage Large Stoneware Bowl. It is not the 9" one but the larger (it is 12.5 in diameter and 4.5" tall). I have no idea who would have one that meets these conditions, but here goes: she would love...

A friend of a friend has asked if I would try to find her this discontinued Pampered Chef Family Heritage 9" Stoneware Bowl. I have no idea who would have one that meets these conditions, but here goes: she would love to find one that someone would sell to her that is brand new in the box, has...

What is the max a stoneware can be cooked at? I can't find that information anywhere on the Pampered Chef web-site. I had a customer e-mail me saying she was using her Pizza Stone to cook some pizza's at 500 degrees and was on the 4th or 5th pizza and it cracked in half on her. She has had...

I am looking for recipes for the discontinued bread crocks. I have a consultant in my downline that a lady who would like these. Any help would be appreciated as this customer is very persistent. I have already passed along that it's a great item to use for reheating left overs, beans...

My sister-in-law has had both of her relatively new (less than 4 months old) stoneware muffin pans break while washing them in the kitchen sink (about a month a part). I don't think they are being "rough" with them; but they do have a porcelain sink and not stainless steel sink which could be an...

Does anyone know if breakfast sausage would fare well on the stoneware? And if so, how long and at what temp? [I have guests coming tomorrow for breakfast and can't use my grill pan for sausage because I will already be using up my stove space with the griddle pan for pancakes and the 12"...

Hello, I am a new consultant and I love my bar pan! I do not know how much I should be scraping off though because every time I use it and scrape off the food, it returns to the original color. There are spots where it is becoming seasoned, but I made bacon on it this morning and when I...

I'm new to selling Pampered Chef, and I wasn't a customer for very long before I sold it. I have a few customers who have questions on the stoneware that I can't answer. Can somebody help me?! 1. In an email from one of my customers: "I just made cupcakes in my muffin stone. I rubbed some...

Does anyone have one of these? Can you tell me if they release the food/cakes easily? I have nearly all of the stones, but I never bought this one for fear it would just make a big mess trying to get the cakes out of those ridged flutes. I was thinking about getting this off of the outlet -...

I met a former consultant at a fundraiser show recently and she is looking for a recipe she said she thought came with a product use & care card. The name of the recipe is Baked Ziti & Sausage and she thinks it was from a card that came with a piece of stoneware. I can't seem to locate the...

I have two pieces of stoneware I've been using for a long time (bar pan and rectangle baker). Both have started to develop this sticky substance on the outer corners of the underside. No matter what I do I can not remove it and can not figure out where it's coming from! Anyone heard of this...

Had a new customer purchase the Stoneware Muffin Pan and she hates it. She has made cupcakes in it twice and has sprayed it both times and the dang cupcakes stick and don't come out. Shouldn't you season it first before use? I'll have to read up on this again. I have forgotten but thought you...

Does anyone have any recipes for the retired Mini-Fluted Stoneware pan? Thanks, Suzy in Texas

I want to give my customers who bought stoneware a flyer with some tips on how to use it and care for it. Anyone have one?

Hi everybody! I am a newer consultant but already have an entire cupboard dedicated to stoneware in my kitchen and I love it! :sing: I am looking for a better way to store my stoneware. I currently have them nicely stacked however, it is not much fun when I need the stone on the bottom of the...

How has everyone's stoneware sales been this month? Mine have been crazy:thumbup: My show from Sunday is going to be so heavy when it comes in. I am having the show shipped to me because our delivery guy likes to play football with the boxes and I want to be able to take care of any breakage...
