ike Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Have just discovered silicone cookware. It's extremely lightweight and can withstand very high temperatures in the oven (not for hob use). You can also get collapsible colanders made of the same stuff. It washes very easily, very non-stick. Just the thing for the gourmet (or not) cook who want to keep the (van's) weight down.ike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tracker Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 And it's not even April 1st yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J9withdogs Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 You're right, Ike, it's really good for baking and have some at home. I, however, have never used the oven in my motorhome. *-) For me - George Foreman rules! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJay Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Like Jannine, i have never used my oven in MH(for cooking) Great for storage of bulky items, spare toilet rolls etc. I dont go away in MH to cook gourmet meals. Simple top of the stove for me. OR if I'm lucky a meal out. Pauline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rapido-lass Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 We cook in the van in the winter and cook more alfresco in the summer. One of our favourites is finishing cooking part baked rolls in the oven (ok not strictly cooking) to accompany homemade soup after a nice long walk.

libby Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Herby Dumplings, Fresh Ginger, why do people eat white food? A mixture of the visible spectrum produces white light. A mixture of sound frequencies produce white sound. A mixture of food tastes produce white food. This is a very real April 1st conundrum producing a nation of bland eaters who will never know the difference between an Arran Pilot or a King Edward.

Peter42 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 rossko - 2009-04-01 12:41 PM The remoska cookers are in the Lakeland catalogue & look great!! Not only look great but cook great also. We have one for the 'van and one at home. On EHU they save a tremendous amount of gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libby Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Martyn, Sounds great Motohome eating but what happened to the lamb, surely all the additional ingredients will over power it. This is exactly my arguments that all the 'flavours' make one 'unknown flavour'. I'm from an era when we only had meadow Dandelions and hedgerow Elderberries to flavour less eatable food.

This is exactly my arguments that all the 'flavours' make one 'unknown flavour'. I'm from an era when we only had meadow Dandelions and hedgerow Elderberries to flavour less eatable food. Bill Bill, of course you can overpower it, (the lamb or anything else for that matter), for me though it's about enhancement. You of course need to cook the lamb correctly to keep it's own flavours strong, the golden rule with meat as ever, (I'm an ex Butcher), less is more. Take a lamb henry, (there goes that poor lamb again), that I had in a restaurant a while ago. Well it needed renaming Mint Sauce Soup With Lamb Involved Somewhere. Truly awful, but with the right quantities, it's a lovely dish, in my opinion. Keeping it simple Bill, Chicken without stuffing? Unthinkable, Steak without mustard? Ditto etc etc. Not coming from your "Dandelion" Era, I can't comment on the needs or expectations of your palate but if you're ever up our way, call in and taste my lemon chicken with stuffing consisting of, fresh garlic, (finely chopped), curry powder and a small chillie. Right now where's that lamb.... Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libby Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Martyn, I'm not familiar with Lamb Henry, more like Larry the Lamb. Don't do Stuffing, garlic or chilli, (its my poor background you know!) although I agree it does smell good. Now my wife Joan lights up at all those names, she will eat anything but I'm just a plain old sod so we have to eat differently nowadays. Made me smile anyway.

yagsas Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Have got a Bravoska very much like a Ramoska but can be used as a pan as well as an oven by tuning the whole thing over so the bottom is the top and top is the bottom.Try www.shopmania.co.uk. Hope this helps John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Momma Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Bill - give your tastebuds a treat :-D My missus does a lovely Fillet steak on toasted crouton with liver pat'e and Mushroom sauce, then there is the grilled salmon served on top of a bed of herb flavoured boiled spuds, or the fillet of duck breast on top of a bed of spring onion mash and yes this is all using the M'Home hob and oven. Can't wait to see what she can do with the Salad this Summer (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libby Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Blow me that sounds good, but my ageing stomach rebels. I just have to keep to basic things but of course I do try occasionally. I was brought up on sugary foods, bread and milk etc, no corflakes in those day (poor old sod). There was 'Mr Force' he was the cornflakes advert at the time and I believe a freebee if you saved up the packets was a rubber band driven aeroplane, I recall it was silver but the name has beaten me. My father used to keep ferrets for rabbitting and it was my job to prepare their early morning food, slices of dry bread cut into small squares with milk added, when their dishes were filled I had what was left over, its great with lots of sugar, I can recommend it. By golly that seems like a wonderfull world then, what a pity we cannot jump back into it at times, its really cruel that we are prevented from doing so.
