I have started cooking my chicken and fish at 225 degrees. It is much tastier and much more moist. So how am I sure when it is done? With the fish, I have been waiting until I can flake it apart with the fork. For the chicken ***, I take two forks and tear the meat apart. When it tears easily, I assume it is done. Do you have any input on this?

A good rule of thumb is to cook your meat for 5 minutes per ounce and fish for 4 minutes per ounce.  Hopefully this will help. 

Good Health,

I went to go buy a glass casserole dish, and I was confronted by unglazed clay pots, glazed clay pots, glazed stoneware, and items like Le Creuset (which I guess is glazed or enameled cast iron).

Glen, is your recommendation "purist": only use glass casserole dishes, or do these other vessels work just as well?

And if the other items are fine, do the cooking instructions vary any?

Hi Jen,

It would be safe to say that I am the purest and I would recommend the glass.

I also had a lot of difficulty finding glass dishes with glass lids. I searched online and couldn't find any but finally located them at the Corningware Outlet in the Gurnee Mills mall north of Chicago.

They have a small and a large size glass bowl with glass lid for about $8 - $10.

Glass ovenware is available at Target & Wal Mart stores.

Type in Pyrex or Corning Ware for a Google search and the possibilites are many.

Amazon.com, Cooking.com, Target.com
