review: silicone bakeware
Although silicone has been around since the 1940’s,
it is a fairly recent addition to the domestic kitchen.
Traditionally, metals such as tin and aluminium were the
materials of choice for bakeware, but home cooks are now
discovering the benefits of silicone.
Silicon bakeware is made from food-grade silicon, which
makes it 100% safe for use in the kitchen. Unlike metal
bakeware which is susceptible to oven “hot spots”
which can result in overcooked areas of a cake or biscuits,
with silicon heat is evenly distributed, resulting in uniformly
cooked foods.
Due to its non-stick finish and unlike metal bakeware,
food won’t stick; in most cases, it doesn’t
even need to be greased. It’s also a lot easier to
clean than its metal counterparts, as well as being dishwasher
safe.
life's a feast's recommended
