    Ceramic Cooking is growing fast (thanks mostly to Big Green Egg). You would think someone would start a magazine devoted to ceramic cooking. They have mag's for everything else under the sun. Surely there would be plenty of Eggheads and others who would subscribe.

    There I go spending someone else's money...

    sirlancealot,

    There are several web sites that carry recipes from cooking magazines. I like Food and Wine and Gourmet personally. I think epicurios.com carries both of those.

    i add a little to the temp if using the dome gage to get closer to the times in a recipe. anything thats done in an oven can be done in an egg, the really expensive stoves like aga have simmering ovens as well so guess what, anything that can be simmered can be done in an egg as well. im not a big fan of the magazines, they fluff it up with too many desserts and things ill never make, go to the book store and pick up some good cookbooks, thai dishes, chinese dishes, french bistro etc can all be done in the egg, lots of choices at the book store

    As others have said, the temps should be close and the times will be, too, but you'll have better success if you look at internal temps as an indicator of when something's done rather than if you rely on time alone.

    As for magazines, my wife gets "Paula", which always has some fine stuff in it. She also gets "Cooking Light", which seems to be somewhat misnamed, as the recipes are not all loaded up with fake sweeteners and fake fats. She has made some really great stuff from that magazine. We've been getting it for years, and it still is a favorite.

    I use recipes from magazines and the web and cook them on the egg. I use the the temp and times as a guide as most of the time they are estimates especially if you are using an electric stove.

    As to my favorite magazines they are Art Culinaire. Fine Cooking and Cook's Illustrated

    Perhaps when your Irish Lottery ticket is comes in, you could fund it and then there will be no advertisement. LOL

    Aaaaaaaa! but good advertising can be a desirable form of entertainment as evidenced by Budweiser's many years of Super Bowl Classics. A great magazine can also present advertisements in an appealing way. Heck, I might even let 'em use my Coop light switch cover to advertise Viagra... LOL
