One of the purchases Desiree wanted to make upon arriving here in the U.S. was Visions Cookware. I must admit, as a typical stick-throwing kid from East Helena, Montana, glass cookware never reached my radar screen.
Turns
out glass cookware is actually impressive stuff. First, pieces are way more robust than I
expected. Also, glass conducts and distributes heat evenly, which helps ensure
that your food cooks consistently. This is particularly advantageous when
baking, as it helps prevent uneven browning or overcooking in certain areas of
the dish.
While
working up a batch of adobo, I noticed Desiree peering at the glass pot on our
range from several angles.
“Whatcha
doing?” I asked in my stick-throwing way.
“I
am making sure this is cooking in a balanced way,” she responded.
“That
makes sense.” I then leaned in and
watched bubbles of heat and tiny pieces parts circulating in various section of
the vessel. “Hmm. This is kinda cool. Look at that stuff go.”
I mean, who knew?
