When you fry fish, it may taste delicious, but the frying process adds a significant amount of fat. The oil is absorbed into the batter, Ceramic Coating making it crispy, but bad for your health. Baking fish is a lower-fat alternative. Use your oven to create a fish that's tasty as well as good for your health.

Step 3Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Step 4Bread or batter the fish using your normal process. Typically, you dip the fish fillet in a beaten egg, then dredge it to coat it in seasoned breadcrumbs, breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese or crushed cornflakes, Ceramic Coating depending on your recipe.

Whoopie Do! comes in Original or S'mores flavors. Whoopie pies have supplanted the cupcake craze and the kit makes them simple to prepare. A long-time Amish treat, it's said Amish farmers and school children who'd find them in their lunch box would yell, "Whoopie!" and a name was born.12. Pamela's Gluten-Free Products© Pamela's Products, used with permission.If Dad has food allergies and gluten is his worst enemy, you've got to bake something for him with a Pamela's Productsmix. Now, he can have chocolate chip cookies, real birthday cake with chocolate icing, pancakes, breads, pizza and more that don't taste like sawdust. In addition to mixes, prepared items like many-flavored shortbread and other cookies, cheesecakes, fudge cake, coffee cake, and biscotti are available.13. The Original GreenPan© GreenPan, used with permission.Start off your environmentally responsible dad with one Original GreenPanto see if he likes it (and I'm sure he will), and then follow up with a whole set! They work on gas, solid hob, ceramic, halogen and induction stoves. The cookware is manufactured with no PFOA chemicals and Thermolon replaces PTFE nonstick coatings meaning GreenPans are touted not to release toxic fumes even when heated higher than 500 degrees. Good for the environment, good for you.Manufacturer's Site14. LightAir IonFlow Air Purifier© Pricegrabber, used with permission.I've tried some of the most expensive air purifier systems out there because I'm allergic to dust, mold, pollen, flour particles (I'm a chef) and other airborne particulates. They work, but they're so costly, hard to clean and noisy. Until now. The LightAir IonFlow is a silent, ozone-free, energy-saving, economical product that doesn't require filter changes. Just wash the collector with water. Yippee! It's perfect for the woodworking dad or one who likes a good cigar now and then, but doesn't like the smoky aroma that lingers. Check out the video.15. CleanCut Touchless Paper Towel Dispenser© Pricegrabber, used with permission.Better watch out, if you buy a CleanCut touchless paper towel dispenser for dad, you might end up keeping it for yourself. It's that great. Anyone with messy hands will appreciate this gadget that can mount under a cabinet near an electrical coutlet. It's perfect for the dad who likes to cook or putter in the garage or woodshop. One pass of the hand across the sensor (no touching necessary) and as much or as little paper towel as you want spews out. It's a lifesaver for me in the kitchen. Ever had a roll of paper towels marked for life with spaghetti sauce that found its way to the top of the roll while tearing off a sheet? No more! Easy to install, easier to use. Watch the video!

Whitford's Sol-Gel Nonstick Coating Now Improved in Three Important Ways.

Fusion[R], Whitford's Sol-Gel Nonstick Coating, Now Improved in Three Important Ways.Elverson, PA, February 22, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Whitford launchedFusion in 2011. Fusion is a coating system based on sol-gel technology,a hybrid of organic and inorganic chemistryinorganic chemistry, the study of all the elements and their compounds with the exception of carbon and its compounds, which fall under the category of organic chemistry.  common to ceramicengineering.Fusion has important advantages over other sol-gel so-calledceramic nonsticks, such as a simpler, more user-friendly chemistry thatsimplifies application (most sol-gels involve complicated chemistry).Plus Fusion is the only sol-gel nonsticknon·stick  adj.Permitting easy removal of adherent food particles: a frying pan with a nonstick surface.nonstickAdjective  with a legal letter verifyingthat it is compliant with the EU and US FDA for food contact.

Fusion is a coating system basedon sol-gel technology, a hybrid of organic and inorganic chemistrycommon to ceramic engineering.1. Better release:Sol-gel nonsticks by definition of their unique chemistry havenever had the release of today's PTFE-based nonsticks (PTFE has thelowest coefficient of frictioncoefficient of frictionn. pl. coefficients of frictionThe ratio of the force that maintains contact between an object and a surface and the frictional force that resists the motion of the object.  of any known solid), but Fusion isgetting close. New Fusion has significantly better release than allother sol-gel nonsticks we've tested.2. Better stain resistance:Sol-gel coatings as a category tend to have good stain resistance.But new technology has taken Fusion's ability to resist staining ofall kinds even further. Recent tests using tomato sauce, boiled down ina Fusion pan for 15 minutes, show how resistant Fusion is to thissubstance notorious for its staining. After a simple rinse and a gentlewipe with a sponge, Fusion showed no staining whatsoever.3. Improved gloss:Fusion's improved technology enables an extra-dense surfacethat offers several benefits. One, of course, is the improved stainresistance mentioned. Another is a surface so compact, so devoid ofsurface irregularities, that it gives a remarkably high gloss - higherthan all other sol-gel nonsticks tested. This means that any pots orpans coated with Fusion have much more eye-catching shine at point ofsale.For more detailed information on new Fusion, contact Whitford:Telephone: 610-286-3500.

How to Cook Frozen Mushrooms

Photo Caption White button mushrooms develop a deep, meaty flavor when cooked.Photo Credit Goodshoot/Goodshoot/Getty ImagesMushrooms aren't just for salad bars or topping burgers anymore. Mushrooms, besides being delicious, offer surprising nutritional benefits, containing copper, potassium, B vitamins, and selenium. Having a package of frozen mushrooms in your freezer means you'll be able to make a yummy side dish whenever the craving strikes.Ceramic Coating
Step 1Place a skillet over medium heat. Heating the pan empty makes fat spread more easily and decreases the likelihood of sticking. If you're using a nonstick skillet, spray with nonstick spray before putting it on the burner; this helps protect the nonstick coating.
Step 2Place your butter in the skillet and swirl the skillet to spread the butter over the bottom as it melts. Cook the butter until it stops foaming and smells slightly nutty. Using room-temperature butter helps; it melts faster. Ceramic Coatings The liquids in room temperature butter are also less likely to burn while you wait for the solids in the butter to liquefy.
