Re: [CnD] Blind - friendly ice trays
Just a thought on making ice trays spill proof: Rather than buying fairly expensive trays, how about covering regular ice trays that make nice big cubes with cling wrap before carrying them to the freezer? --- Be positive!

Hello: The griddler sounds nice, however, how long do you cook the pancakes before they are done in the griddler, and as someone else asked, how much does the griddler cost? Just a thought, when pointing out a product, if the cost is not known, please give at least an estimate for us to have, when we shop for said product. Thanks for your help.

The griddler, sold by Bed, Bath, and Beyond, cooks pancakes on both sides at the same time. This eliminates the need for turning the pancakes. The unit also cooks bacon or sausage without turning. It has a drain pan in the bottom for catching excess grease. This unit is very handy.

It is helpvul to measure with a measuring cup. I use a quarter cup. To stop it from being dry, use plenty of butter. I you want to cut down on fat, use non stick spray and add a little margarine or cocoanut oil to the mix. Pick up the edge with a spatula a slight bit and check if the edge is dong with a finger. If it is cooked. flip it. They sell pans that are double sided like omelet pans which can make it easier to turn too. *smile* Regina -Original Message- From: Wendy via Cookinginthedark [mailto:cookinginthedark@acbradio.org] Sent: Monday, December 28, 2015 4:35 PM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org; 'john mcconnell' Subject: Re: [CnD] cooking pancakes without vision. When the pancake loosens easily from the pan, it is time to turn it over. This is what I usually do.

Hello all: How does one make pancakes without vision. How does one know that they are done on the first side before flipping to the second side? How are they made, in order not to be too dry?

I have a PC as well as an iPhone and a BrailleNote to do the job. Does anyone have a good way of organizing and storing recipies? I am finding that I have a large amount of recipies and they are not as organized as they could be. If you are using an app, where do the recipies get stored? How accessible is the app? How do you get say a recipe from an email into the app? What if I wanted to type in a recipe to be stored, would that be possible?
