Kalorik PCM28276 Hot-Air Popcorn Maker Review

This is a very poorly made, cheap popcorn popper. I should have been suspicious when the manufacturer's product description on the item page describes a meat grinder ("This meat grinder lets you create fresh, top-quality meats and spreads in minutes.") Someone messed up on that one! A flimsy plastic housing gets extremely HOT HOT HOT and is almost too hot to touch after the popcorn is finished popping. Just turning the switch to "off" was hazardous because you have to be careful not to touch the body of the popper while doing so. And talk about LOUD - sounds like someone is using a leaf blower in your kitchen! It only takes 1/4 cup of kernels at a time, which does NOT make very much popcorn. Then you're advised to wait 15 minutes before popping another batch. I bought this hoping that it would be similar to the Presto popper, only with the highly coveted "on/off" switch everyone wishes the Presto had. Big mistake! This is more expensive than the Presto, but it is NOT worth it. Save your money & buy a microwave popper. I had a microwave popper (Nordic Ware) for over 10 years and just recently wanted a replacement because it's not performing as good as it used to. I'll be getting another Nordic Ware microwave popper since that worked wonders in the past!

Ideal for everything from a healthy mid-day snack to movie night with friends, this hot-air popcorn maker prepares hot, crispy popcorn in less than five minutes. Simply add one full scoop, using the included measuring cup, place a large-size bowl (not included) under the spout, and flip the switch to "on". The unit leaves behind virtually no unpopped kernels, and its angled chute does a good job of directing popped corn into the bowl. Because it works with hot air instead of oil, there's not the high fat or oil content to worry about. That said, there's no reason the popcorn can't be doctored up with seasoned salt, brewer's yeast, spritzes of soy sauce, or other toppings, including the classic favorite of melted butter. In fact, the measuring cup, which sits in the lid, doubles as a butter dish. Just add the desired amount of butter or margarine (the heat from the popping process will gently melt it) and drizzle over the popped popcorn. With its easy-to-clean design and small footprint, the 1200-watt popcorn maker measures 7-1/2 by 5 by 10-3/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Nordic Ware Danish Ebleskiver Pan Review

We have used this pan every weekend for a year. Don't bother making mix from scratch - Hungry Jack's "just add water" pancake mix makes wonderfully light and fluffy Ebelskivers. We add blueberries and raspberries to our Ebelskivers (fresh in season, frozen but thawed in warm water the rest of the year).
Yes, it is nonstick but I find a little butter is necessary to keep the Ebelskivers from sticking if they have fruit in them, plus the butter is essential to taste, in my opinion. I add a small, thin slice of butter to the bottom of each Ebelskiver hole once it's hot (heat over low or medium low heat). Once the butter melts, add batter to each hole to just slightly below the hole's rim (beware, center hole heats quickest, so add butter to that hole last and add batter to that hole first). Now add fruit or jelly to center until batter rises to rim or just above the rim.
Once brown on bottom, use a small silicone heat resistant spatula to flip the Ebelskivers over. While the flip takes a little practice, it is easy to catch on to. Trust me, guests and family will be impressed with these unusual breakfast treats AND will be amazed at the taste! We top our Ebelskivers with real maple or blueberry syrup and a small dollop of whipped cream ("Reddy Wip" make not be haute cuisine, but it sure tastes good!).
NOTE ABOUT CAST IRON: We also own a cast iron Ebelskiver pan, which we hate. No matter how many times I've tried to season and oil the pan, the Ebelskivers stick - which ruins the Ebelskivers. Plus, I have a bad neck which is irritated by trying to use caste iron, which is very heavy and difficult to use for making Ebelskivers. Just be sure to wash the nonstick pan by hand and don't use forks or other metal utensils to turn the Ebelskivers.
RECOMMENDED!

Nordic Ware 64802 Microwave Egg Cooker Review

It works great, and it's small (6" high, 5" diameter) and easy to use. May require some experimentation to get times correct for your own microwave. For me: 7 minutes for soft, 8 min for medium, and 9-10 min for hard eggs on high power (700W microwave).
It does get very hot, so you need to remove it from the microwave with a potholder or towel. I place the whole thing under the cold tap, then remove the top, and cool the eggs under running water for a minute before peeling.

I have used this popper many, many times since buying it two months ago. It does an excellent job of making popcorn that is light and fluffy.
But I almost ruined the popper the first time I used it. I set my 1350 watt Panasonic microwave oven to 3 minute, burned the popcorn, leaving scorch marks that I was able to scrub out. I'd advise any user to work their way UP to the proper time for their microwave.
The underside of the bottom of the popping bowl gets hot enough to burn one's fingers. Take it out of the microwave by the edges at the the top and place the popper on a heat-resistant surface.
