My Secret To Kneading Bread Dough

I love baking bread.  I know what goes in and I love the way it comes out.  I also enjoy the whole process especially kneading the dough.  It’s quite therapeutic and I have an easy way to make sure it doesn’t stick.  I just knead the dough on the dual-use silicone pastry and baking mat from 1Easylife. The mat provides a large non stick surface for me to knead the dough.  It also comes with a free 15″ wooden rolling-pin.  I like that the mat has measurements in inches and cm all along the sides as well as different size pie crust circles.

There are so many quality features in this mat, it’s the thickest mat on the market with a thickness of .7mm, simple to clean and takes up no room to store because it can be rolled.  You can also use it in the oven to line a cookie sheet and it is heat-resistant up to 480 degrees F.  With proper cleaning the mat is safe from micro-organisms and it is odor resistant. A very large 25″ by 15″ mat that gives you plenty of room to make your pastry, knead dough or bake lots of cookies on.

BrightSpring Silicone Baking Mat Review & Giveaway!!!

BrightSpring Logo

I love baking, so I was thrilled to review BrightSpring Silicone Baking Mats.  These flexible, silicone baking mats let you bake without greasing your cookie sheets with butter or oil.  They also help your cookies and other baked goods to cook evenly without burning.  Best of all, you will be able to get your baked goods off the mat when baked with ease because the silicone is non-stick.  After you are finished the mats clean right up with soap and water until the next time.  You can also use them to knead or roll dough without anything getting stuck.  I was sent 2 mats for review and want to get a third for that purpose.  No better time too because they are having a 1/2 price January Sale!!!  The mats are available on Amazon.com.

The BrightSpring Silicone Baking Mat is a silicone coated, fiberglass mat that does the job parchment paper and grease are supposed to do but with perfect results EVERY TIME!  Using that mat will save you money and is a very green move in the kitchen since you will cut down on your use of parchment paper.  Using the mat can cut down on calories as well which is healthier, especially if you are trying to eat healthier.

I made some sugar cookies to test the mats out and they worked great!  The cookies cooked evenly and were easy to remove when baked.  Even though I decorated on the sheet before putting them in the oven and there was some spilling of the decorating sugars and nonpareils  onto the mat, the cleanup was a breeze with soap and water.

The Unexpected Green Pan Review!!!

When I came down this morning, my wonderful husband had already cooked the little ones their favorite breakfast of cheese eggs, buttered toast and bacon.  While I was getting my coffee, he told me he used the new Green Pan to cook the eggs.  He said this looking for my approval, wondering if it was okay he cooked in it.  When I told him I had only done the pre-review, he told me he did take pictures of the process.  I asked him for his impressions of the pan and he raved about how well made the pan is and it is very easy to see and feel it is a commercial grade fry pan.  He said it heated very evenly and the eggs cooked so fast.   When he added the cheddar cheese it melted fast and was not sticking to the pan.

The greatest testimonial on the non-stick surface of this pan, is that as I sat down to post this review, I asked my husband if he had cleaned the pan yet.  When he told me he had not, I ran into the kitchen to look at the pan.  There was next to nothing in it and a quick wipe of a towel had it looking brand new.

We are very impressed with these pans and highly recommend them if you are looking for a safe non-stick pan.  Please check their website as they have a wide range of products.  www.green-pan.com  Thank you again Green Pan for making a product I feel confident using around  my family and pets.
