Sally G said:I've made these a couple of times with only 1T of butter to a pkg of 5 grands.
It seemed like it needed more butter. My director told me the stick of butter seemed like too much. What amount of butter do you use for what amount of grands?
lkspeir said:Rice Krispy Treat demo using the 8" saute pan. One Tablespoon of butter melted, one snack bag size of marshmallows, and one snack size bag of Rice Krispies. Melt the butter, add the marshmallows, stir until melted. Take off the heat and stir in the rice krispies. Slide onto a small SA plate. Wipe out the saute pan with a paper towel and take a bow!!
lisacb77 said:Put an ice cube in it and pass it around. They will be amazed at how fast it melts...and you can explain that is due to the hard anodized (sp?) aluminum it's made from. It conducts temperature quicker, so water boils quicker in the saucepans. Also, point out the thick bottom and thin sides, which allows the temp to travel up quickly.
HTH. Haven't sold any yet but ppl are impressed by it.
chefjenibel said:A very quick and easy demo that won't make you have to work too hard is the ice cube demo......
Simply ask the hostess for an ice cube, place it in the pan, and let everyone ooooh and aaaaah over how quickly the ice melts. When it is completely melted, pass it around so everyone can feel how cold the pan has become. What does this demonstrate? The AMAZING heat conductivity of our pans!!!!!! The larger pieces can be used to defrost meat. You can defrost a steak in 1/2 hour on the grill pan.
Another option is to burn a slice of American cheese right in the pan. (Not so that it is smoking, but so that it is visibly burnt). Let it cool a little (enough so you can handle it), and simply peel the whole piece of cheese right out of the bottom of the pan!!!! Obviously, we're demonstrating the non-stick surface here. Your guests will be sold!
If you would like some recipes, I'm sure there are some on here. Just do a search in the files for "pull apart bread" or something and you should get some good ideas.
HTH!
