Just thought you'd like to know.

Chef Kearns said:They also used Pam when they made the Asparagus roll thing from the new Celebrations recipe. When you get your DVDs watch for that. She sprayed the dough then folded up the asparagus then sprayed them again ON THE STONEWARE before placing them in the oven.

And, pre-shredded cheese...if you read the label, has wood by-product! That is what that dusty like substance is...but, I guess that is another way to get your fiber!!

Yikes!!!!!jenniferlynne said:I've heard that if you set a tub of margarine outside not even ants will mess with it.
chefmelody said:However, the recipe that comes with the double-burner griddle calls for cooking spray (not the kitchen spritzer) to be used! Someone really should change that!

There is some truth to this statement. Cooking sprays like Pam contain lecithin, which is a type of emulsifier that helps prevent sticking. Lecithin is made up of phospholipids, which are similar in structure to plastic molecules. However, there is no evidence that cooking sprays pose any health risks due to this similarity.
Yes, cooking sprays are generally safe to use. They are made with food-grade ingredients and are regulated by the FDA. However, it is important to use cooking sprays in moderation and follow the instructions on the label for safe and effective use.
Cooking sprays can be used for most types of cooking, such as frying, baking, and grilling. However, they may not be suitable for high-heat cooking methods, such as broiling or deep-frying. It is best to check the label or contact the manufacturer for specific instructions on using cooking sprays for different types of cooking.
Yes, there are alternatives to cooking sprays such as using oil or butter to grease pans or using parchment paper. Some people also prefer to use a reusable oil mister to control the amount of oil used in cooking. It is a matter of personal preference and dietary needs.
Yes, cooking sprays can help reduce the amount of fat and calories in cooking compared to using oil or butter. They provide a thin and even layer of oil, which can help cut down on the amount of fat used in cooking. However, it is important to still use cooking sprays in moderation and incorporate healthy cooking practices overall.
