Bakeware preference: tough choice!

Wow, this poll was tough to vote on ;)

I chose stainless steel, because it's my all-around favorite: pizza, cookies, casseroles, meats, it does a fine job.

Of course, I do have some favorites for individual foods. I like stoneware for casseroles. Pre-heated cast iron is great for meats.

But I'm just NOT into silicone, aluminum, or non-stick (Not unless I want non-stick particles in my cookies... yuck!).

I do like glass okay, and I use it a lot, because it's what I have. (It was cheap to purchase for our home when we got married.) If I have very little $$ and it's a choice between cheap-o non-stick or glass, I choose glass. At least glass lasts!!

Stainless Steel

I chose stainless steel because I love the commercial half sheet pans dh got me. I've never had my cookies over brown on them and they're just a great size.

I had a stoneware cookie sheet that I loved until I dropped it. I probably won't replace it though, because it was a pain to clean, no soap, just hot water. . .

Stoneware but...

I chose stoneware because that is my choice for baking. Followed closely by glassware. For stovetop cooking, it's cast iron or stainless steel.

glass for baking...

But for stovetop cooking and cookie sheets, it would be stainless steel, with cast iron running a distant second. Stoneware is on my wish-list, but out of my price range at the moment! I also like some of the ceramic type of casserole and baking dishes...

It all depends...

I haven't bought any bakeware... as I got lots (good Mennonite church! *wink*) for wedding gifts. I have a variety, which is soooo nice. I prefer teflon for stovetop cooking of pancakes, eggs, french toast, etc. However, I do prefer cast iron for cooking my meat. I love baking with glass casserole dish for squares that need cooking with sharp knifes, but I like teflon casserole dish for other types of baking. =) Yet I quite thoroughly enjoy my stainless steel cookie sheet, as it does a great job of baking cookies! =) So... it all depends on what I'm baking/cooking. ;-)

I usually use

glass, though really it depends on what I'm cooking - aluminum for most baking, glass for dinnners in the oven, and Teflon for stovetop.

Stoneware

I voted for stoneware as I love how it cooks the food and is so easy to clean. :D Stainless steel would be my second choice. I have to admit that I like non-stick pans for baking buns. :)

We use glass pans a lot in

We use glass pans a lot in the oven (e.g. 9"x13" pan). I like iron skillets for stove top... or stainless steel. Non-stick might be convenient at first, but have you ever wondered where all the coating went, when you look at it a few months, etc. later?! : p

teflon...

I know that America's test kitchen did a test on Teflon with frying pans that you finish the dish in the oven. Teflon will come off the pan at a certain tempature...
That is just scary to me... I refuse to even have it in my house.
