Aunt Else's 9-hole Cast Iron Aebleskiver Pan Review

Aunt Else's 9-hole Cast Iron Aebleskiver Pan
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I adore my pan, but still in the process of leaning ho to make them perfectly rounded. It was a pain to cure and made my house smell kinda metallic for a while. You do need to use it a few times before it becomes non stick IMO, so make sure to oil it really really well. I totally recommend it if you want a nice Aelbeskiver pan because all the other ones I've seen seem pretty cheap and the ones on those infomercials are not the traditional rounds like these. You can use this pan for other things as well, so plan to experiment! I do! I am giving 4 stars because it was a pain to cure, but other than that it's pretty awesome well made pan! It's super heavy too and will last foreverrrrrrrrrr. Your great great great grandkids will be able to use it someday!

Æbleskiver - pronounced EB-el-sku-wyr, a Danish word meaning apple slice.Traditional Danish spherical pastry, somewhat similar in taste and texture to an American pancake, but light and fluffy like a popover. Æbleskiver are cooked on the stove top in an æbleskiver pan.Æbleskiver are traditionally filled with a slice of apple, but can be made to suit a range of tastes from sweet to savory, and are often topped with syrup, jam or applesauce.Considered a specialty bakeware item, the 9 holes or wells are filled with batter and as it starts cooking, the chef uses a chopstick or knitting needle to "turn" it into a ball. The pan has a 8" wide and is 13 3/4" long. The holes or wells are 2 1/4" in diameter and 1 1/8" deep.Aunt Else's own design! Our high quality cast iron æbleskiver pan allows you to make 9 æbleskiver at a time. The pans are proudly made right here in Minneapolis, Minnesota and comes with a lifetime manufacturer's guarantee. These pans work perfectly on gas, electric, ceramic, and even magnetic induction stove tops.

Takoyaki Pan #H5180 Review

Takoyaki Pan #H5180
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Beggars can't be choosers, and that seems to be true for takoyaki in the US. The delightful Osaka treat is rare enough even at Japanese restaurants, and the necessary implements for making it at home are even more so.
The absolute best set up is a round takoyaki pan, either on a gas or electric portable grill. Much of the fun of takoyaki comes from everyone sitting around the table and cooking together, putting in your favorite ingredients and popping the little balls out then eating them hot and fresh. That is how it is done in Japan, and home-cooking takoyaki isn't meant to be the province of a lone cook standing over a stove while everyone waits patiently for the food. It is a communal experience.
However, true takoyaki cookers are not readily available, and this pan is better than nothing. It doesn't take much, just a pan with round indents in it heavy enough to rest on the range while the balls are flipped over using long toothpicks. It isn't really designed to work with electric ranges, as they are pretty rare in Japan, but it does the trick. I don't recommend using the included steel pick, as it will scratch your pan and conduct heat while doing the flipping.

Norpro Danish Aebleskiver Pan Review

This is a great little pan! My daughter loves eating little pancakes and muffins, all we've made so far. For her the size of the cakes is just right. The extras are great for snacks or freezing for later use. Line up the outstide cups on the burner grate and it works fine. The pan is cast iron sooooo wash it in hot water, rinse in hot water, towel dry then heat it on your stove top on low heat. While it is still warm, smear a good layer of vegetable shortening on it, set it in an aluminum foil pan, and bake it at 250 - 300 for an hour. Turn off the oven and leave the pan inside until it is cool. The pan is now seasoned, yeah! After you use the pan wash it in hot water, rinse in hot water, towel dry and heat it on a burner on low heat. When it is dry I spray it with cooking oil and let it set for another minute then turn off the burner, it is then ready to use next time. Standard operating procedure for all my cast iron.

Nordic Ware Danish Ebleskiver Pan Review

We have used this pan every weekend for a year. Don't bother making mix from scratch - Hungry Jack's "just add water" pancake mix makes wonderfully light and fluffy Ebelskivers. We add blueberries and raspberries to our Ebelskivers (fresh in season, frozen but thawed in warm water the rest of the year).
Yes, it is nonstick but I find a little butter is necessary to keep the Ebelskivers from sticking if they have fruit in them, plus the butter is essential to taste, in my opinion. I add a small, thin slice of butter to the bottom of each Ebelskiver hole once it's hot (heat over low or medium low heat). Once the butter melts, add batter to each hole to just slightly below the hole's rim (beware, center hole heats quickest, so add butter to that hole last and add batter to that hole first). Now add fruit or jelly to center until batter rises to rim or just above the rim.
Once brown on bottom, use a small silicone heat resistant spatula to flip the Ebelskivers over. While the flip takes a little practice, it is easy to catch on to. Trust me, guests and family will be impressed with these unusual breakfast treats AND will be amazed at the taste! We top our Ebelskivers with real maple or blueberry syrup and a small dollop of whipped cream ("Reddy Wip" make not be haute cuisine, but it sure tastes good!).
NOTE ABOUT CAST IRON: We also own a cast iron Ebelskiver pan, which we hate. No matter how many times I've tried to season and oil the pan, the Ebelskivers stick - which ruins the Ebelskivers. Plus, I have a bad neck which is irritated by trying to use caste iron, which is very heavy and difficult to use for making Ebelskivers. Just be sure to wash the nonstick pan by hand and don't use forks or other metal utensils to turn the Ebelskivers.
RECOMMENDED!

This is so much easier than the cast iron one I had, have used it 4 times since I got it. Had week-end guests, and they were wowed over. Never heard of these. They were going to order one when they got home. It's so easy to use, chop sticks work best, and with gas heat it's best to use a med. low heat or they brown too fast. Other than that, they are great, I make them the night before and put the in the oven to heat them through in the morning. Taste like they were just made. I love it.

Traditional Danish pancakes, known as Aebleskiver, can be made quickly and easily with help from this convenient pan by Norpro. A favorite treat of Denmark, the stuffed sphere-shaped pancakes make a delightful addition to any meal. Serve them sweet or savory, filled with anything from apples, jam, or chocolate chips to chunks of sausage or cheese. The pan, which measures 9 inches in diameter, provides seven round-shaped indentations, which measure 2-3/4 inches deep--perfect for cooking up the delicious treat. Constructed of durable cast aluminum, the pan heats quickly and evenly and comes with a nonstick cooking surface, which ensures healthier results (no need for excess butter or oil), effortless release of the baked goods, and quick cleanup. Thoughtfully designed, the pan also provides an ergonomic, 7-1/2-inch-long, stay-cool handle, complete with a hanging hole on the end for space-saving storage. When finished, the pan should be hand washed to help protect its nonstick surface. Recipes are included.
