Shameless Commerce: Pans for Pizza

January 25, 2011

I made pizza twice this weekend, first on Saturday at M’s parents’ house, and then on Sunday at our house for some guests we invited at nearly the last minute.

We’d arrived back from our weekend away to find delivered the most recent item provided for review by CSN Stores: Celphalon’s Classic Bakeware Jelly Roll Combo. I never make jelly rolls, so the opportunity to make pizza in the new pans was perfect. N helped mix up and spread the dough–and scatter toppings, too–and then the pizzas baked. Perfectly.


Whereas our old pans would have burned the crust bottoms and let sauce seep over the edges, in these pans the crust stuck not one little bit, and baked the whole way through with a beautiful golden brown underneath.

I was happy.

M washed the pans this morning, then used them for granola today. When I washed them this evening, no granola crumbs were stuck on, so cleaning the pans was an easy wipe or two.


Sweet!

They’re not as perfect as my pizza, though: As described in the sales website, these pans can’t handle metal utensils on them, although I used a pizza cutter yesterday and didn’t notice any adverse effects; I guess that’s why they’re for jelly rolls, not pizza. Also, there did seem to be a bit of audible warping going on in the oven (375 degrees) during baking, but everything turned out fine, so maybe that’s not really a problem.

    If those pans can't "handle metal," then what else? What if the high-tech alloy's poisons leach into your nice puffy crusts and healthy granola?

    (Guess who.)
