To the best of my knowledge, there are no food-rated tiles as such.
There are tiles which should not be used for food preparation, but
that's because they are glazed. There are a number of glazes which are
toxic.
As far as I know, all unglazed tiles are safe for food preparation.
Kiln shelves are wholly non-toxic and have no components which can leach
into the food being baked on them.
Other than fire-brick, kiln shelves are probably the safest to use
across the board. In addition to being non-toxic, they handle thermal
and physical stress better than just about all the other possibilities.

The stones make no difference in the way I bake. Provided they are
properly pre-heated (I pre-heat for 30 minutes), they have no effect
whatever on the heat in the oven other than acting as a heat reservoir
to protect the temperature from being affected by opening the oven.
I leave my shelves in all the time. Those things I bake which they do
not help, they do not hurt. Most things benefit from their presence.
I have a separate broiler.

Subject: Chocolate Gravy history?
Thanks for all the chocolate gravy and the mayonnaise biscuit recipes.
I do not know the history of the origin of this dish. My great
grandmother passed it on to my grandmother who passed it on to my
mother. My great grandmother was from Grayson Co., Kentucky. All the
people that I have known to have had this has been from Kentucky. I
currently live in Orlando, Florida and have met only two people who have
had this; and they were both from Kentucky.
Our rural electric company (Nolin RECC) in Kentucky published a
chocolate gravy recipe in one of its monthly publications many years
ago. The creator of the recipe said that she had made a batch of
chocolate frosting (that did not turn out well) for a cake and did not
want it to go to waste. Being a lover of chocolate, she dipped left
over biscuits into the chocolate. She loved it and started
experimenting with different with different recipes.
Someone requested how to serve chocolate and biscuits.
Make a batch of your favorite biscuits (mine are the mayonnaise
biscuits). While they are in the oven make the chocolate gravy. Take
the biscuits (I crumble or tear my biscuits into small pieces), and put
on a plate and smother it in the chocolate. I have always had and
served this for breakfast and never had any leftovers for lunch or
dinner. One of my friends from Kentucky always had it for desert after
dinner. I guess it does not matter when you serve it, because it will
be no leftovers.
Here is my recipe for the gravy. The honey makes this wonderful and
adding more butter makes this taste even better.
Chocolate "Gravy" Desert--Pudding
4 cups milk 1 cup sugar
9 Tablespoons flour 1/8 cup honey
2 Tablespoons cocoa 3 Tbsp. butter
Mix dry ingredients. Pour in milk and cook over med-high heat. Stir
constantly, till boiling and thick. Remove from heat and add butter and
honey. Pour over biscuits fresh out of the oven.
**Microwave--Heat milk till boiling. Add dry ingredients and return to
microwave till thick; stirring occasionally. This saves a lot of
stirring and saves time.

Does anyone have other cooking or baking uses for blowtorches?
Also, I posted a message a few days ago about using honey in a cake recipe
to replace the sugar content. I have not received any information yet, and
I am desperate. If anyone has this information, please let me know.

Hi Marvin!
My husband's people are from rural southern Alabama. As a child, he
loved eating Chocolate Biscuits at one of his grandmother's houses. She
served it both for breakfast and dessert. It was the thing to do with
left-over biscuits. It is a well-known dish in the area, popular among
the generation that baked biscuits every morning for breakfast.

I know many Europeans have chocolate with their breakfast. My
sister-in-law is Dutch and she has Nutella (a chocolate hazelnut
spread) nearly every morning on toast, muffin, bagel, whatever.
My husband is a chef and we have chef coats (and pants and hats and
aprons) coming out our ears. I'm the laundry. Actually, Larry does a
good bit of the wash too. He has older stained coats that he uses
for work and nice clean bright white ones that he uses when he cooks
at functions - he works for a catering company. The jackets are made
of a fairly sturdy polyester cotton combo that washes up pretty well.
Chefs usually tie aprons around their middles so most of the stains
end up there instead of on the coats.

My preference is a lower-salt Smithfield ham (33% lower salt); you get
more of the ham flavor, I don't even think it needs a glaze. My husband
prefers his ham salty, but I just tell him that he's free to add it.
Two favorite Easter/spring asparagus recipes follow.
Asparagus- Smoked Salmon Timbales
Asparagus with Pickled Ginger & Shallots

Asparagus & Smoked Salmon Timbale
Recipe By: Best of Gourmet 1989
Serving Size: 8
Preparation Time: 0:00
Categories: Seafood Vegetables Appetizers Asparagus Side Dishes
Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
3/4 pound smoked salmon thinly sliced
2 pounds asparagus
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons dill snipped
12 slices lemon halved
extra dill sprigs for garnish
Line each of eight 1/4-cup ramekins, 2 1/4 inches in diameter by 1 1/4
inch deep with some of the smoked salmon, leaving a 1 inch overhang. (I
use muffin tins.)
Trim the asparagus & cook in boiling salted water for 3-5 minutes, or
until the stalks are tender, but not limp. Drain in a large colander,
refresh under cold water & pat dry. Cut off the tips, reserving 24 of
them, covered & chilled, for garnish. Cut the remaining stalks & tips
into 2 inch lengths.
In a small saucepan, sprinkle the gelatin over 1/3 cup cold water, let
it soften for 5 minutes; heat the mixture over moderately low heat,
stirring until the gelatin is dissolved.
In a ffod processor blend the 2 inch pieces of asparagus, the sour
cream, the mustard, & the snipped dill, pulsing the motor, until the
asparagus is chopped fine. With the motor running, add the gelatin
mixture & blend the mixture until it is just combined.
Fill the lined ramekins with the asparagus mixture, packing it, and fold
the salmon overhangs over the tops (the filling doesn't have to be
covered completely.) Chill the timbales, covered with plastic wrap, for
at least 2 hours and up to 8 hours (they do get mushy after 8 hours.)
On each of 8 chilled plates, arrange alternately 3 of the lemon half
slices and 3 of the reserved asparagus tips, halved lengthwise to make 6
tips. Loosen the timbales with a knife, invert them into the centers of
the plates & top with the dill sprigs.

Subject: Ham Favorite
My favorite Easter ham is a honey glazed spiral cut ham that I
buy from the local Safeway grocery. It is expensive, but well
worth the price. I simply remove the wrappings, rewrap it in
foil, and bake for a couple of hours. (it's prebaked, but I
like to bake it just a bit more.) No glaze is necessary---it
already has one.
The spiral slicing means you only make one cut along the side
and you have perfectly shaped, thin slices of ham. Hardly any
waste at all.
I can really butcher a bone-in ham if I try to slice it myself.
And the leftover bone is a wonderful Easter treat for my doggie.
(I know I'm not supposed to give him that, but it's only once a
year.)
TGIF to all...
Hugs,
Sharon Frye

Subject: Brown Rice--Thanks!!
I never expected such a response! There are some fantastic people on
this list!
I'll be trying a few of the recipes this weekend (there's one for
herbed chicken that sounds out of this world). Many people suggested
storing the rice in the freezer--I don't know why I never thought of
that! Since I rince the rice well before cooking, it will come back
to room temp very quickly and should cook okay.
I'm making a salad tonight--I BBQ'd some boneless turkey thighs last
night with a teriyaki glaze. To be quite frank (and all apologies to
those of you east of the Rockies), it is far too hot to cook!! We
topped 100 yesterday and today looks about the same. Thanks again,
you really are a wonderful group of people!--StephM

Categories : Irish Potatoes
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 pounds potatoes, preferably Yokon Yellow -- peeled and
cut in ch
1 cup leeks -- chopped*
1 cup low-fat milk
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Clean leek very well. In a saucepan, cover potatoes with cold salted water. Bring to a boil and cook, partially covered, until tender, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in anogher sauce pan, combine leeks and milk. Bring to a simmer over low heat. Cook, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until the leeks are tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. With a potato masher,
mash until smooth. Stir in oil and warm leeks and milk. Season to
taste with salt and pepper.

NOTES : Note: Traditionally this dish is made with potatoes and scallions (green onions) and topped with a great deal of butter. Substituting leeks for scallion produces a mellower flavor, one that doesnnn;t requite a
buttery finish. Yukon Golds also add buttery color and flavor.

Tried the Pudding Poke Cake. It was a great success. I used pistachio pudding
because I served it on Saint Patrick's Day. Make sure you use a large enough
pan as the pudding takes up room. Mine bowed up in the middle and I am told
that it would not have done this if the pan was slightly bigger. I used a
13" x 8" pan (0utside measurements).

The Schlotzsky's "Original" includes (copied right off the menu):
lean ham, Genoa salami, cotto salami, mozzarella, cheddar, and parmesan
cheese, mustard, marinated black olives, onion, lettuce, and tomato. The
whole thing is passed under a broiler or something and served warm. You
can also get it on a dark rye or jalapeno cheese bun. Deee-lish!!

There's no lead in kiln shelving. I'm assured that there are no toxic
materials of any kind in kiln shelving. It's a lot like fire brick and
other high-temperature materials.
It is not made from a clay-based material - it isn't pottery.
It is a high-temperature ceramic.
The warnings you have seen were either about the lead-based glazes used
on some pottery tiles or the lead or uranium content of some clays.

Subject: Question about sandwich
Katrina, and all the other Listers,
I copied the recipe for the Schlotsckhy's (spelling???)
sandwich bread, and I just read the post for what went on the
sandwich.
Question...if this is baked in an 8-9 inch pie pan, so
to speak....how large is this sandwich anyway??? Is this one
you would cut into wedges to serve?
Come on you fellows...give us the details from start to
finish, especially for me who is mentally deprived on a Friday
night. I teach school, and by 7 pm on Friday night, my brain is
dead and refuses to budge for any reason until Monday morning.
This looks like something I want to try...help me out.
A great big hug to all of you,
