Hi I am new to the group--have been reading old posts and learning a lot. We are building a new house and I really want an Aga. I talked to Joy at Aga...
Barbara, Don't try to aircondition the kitchen. Think of the best way to remove the heat - an exhaust fan - placed high in the room. This will lead to a little...
Like many have said, it is hot in the kitchen when you cook! If you are boiling mass quantities of water for canning it does not matter what your heat source...
Gwen - I've been wanting to try Gruyere with Marc's onion schmeer, ever since you wrote an e-mail about it a while back, and I completely agree - DELICIOUS...
I LOVE IT!? Regular wine pairing suggestions!?? I feel that I've made a mark on the world.? I'm humbled.? (Not really, but I am pleased.) Lesley Chapin ...
Yesterday I bought a le creuset pot. Now that I've got it home, I'm reading the little book and it says not to heat the lid knob over 375 degrees and it says...
Did yours come with the little book of care and instructions? Gwen ... From: Stephanie Lish To: Gwen Brass Sent: Saturday, August 04, 2007 2:45 PM Subject: Re:...
I'm sure just about anything is cheaper than the le creuset! LOL Aga pots are cheaper and they are pretty costly. It's quite a long drive for me to return...
I'm not as concerned about the knob as I am about using it on the floor of the oven. I can always take the knob off. Have you used yours for the no knead...
I took the knob off mine, and poked aluminum foil through the hole to seal it up. I always use it to make the no-knead bread - warmed up on the middle/top...
Sounds delish! I had fun tonight making Sake salmon on rice - recipe below, and a blueberry, peach and strawberry cobbler for desert. Also made yummy muesli...
One hint our installer gave us that I keep meaning to mention - after cooking, if you have baked on food, simply fill the pan with water and leave on the...
You can use any recipe for broccoli rabe or greens where you make a seasoning saute of aromatics - garlic, onions, bacon, chili pepper, oil, etc - then saute...
Nothing's wrong with Lodge. I'd like to get some of that. But I was at the outlet place and the le creuset place was there and people had talked abut it and...
This is what I want to hear! LOL I think they probably put the 'warnings' in there to cover their butts. But it seems a lot of you use them in the roasting...
Thanks Gwen for copying the group on responses, as I am curious about this issue, as I'm sure others were too. I have heated the empty pot every time I've used...

I know people have asked about canning on the Aga from time to time. I've canned on it yearly since we got ours and did some canning on it yesterday and am in...
Does anyone have experience with drying different fruits in the Aga? There are so many wonderful fruits right now at the markets it would be great to preserve...
These sites all make mention of using an Aga to dry fruits and vegies. They don't say much, just basically to use the warming oven, spread the fruit on a...
And the wine you'd serve it with???? <g> Gwen ... From: Gene Lugo To: agalovers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, August 05, 2007 12:15 PM Subject: [From an AGA...
OB Dry Lager from Korea - very light, clean and crisp. Otherwise a nice prosecco or spanish cava, but this dish really lends itself to a lager. _____ From:...
Is there any sort of guidelines as to length of cooking time for a roast chicken? Like so many minutes per pound. I put a 4.5 pounder in at 5 pm and am...
Gwen, I just use my Le Creuset - I don't pay attention to the directions ... of the ovens, on the plates, for searing meat without oil....it's the only kind of...
I guess this means you're back from vacation - which of course means that we expect a full reading report. ;-) ________________________________ From:...
Too late now, I'm sure, but I've found a 4 pounder runs me about an hour. IF I need more than a 4 pounder, I'm more likely to cook two at once than to go to a...
I haven't dried fruit yet (though I've been meaning to, thanks for reminding me!!), But I've found that herbs dry nicely in the warming oven. FWIW, I'd say...
