Some people get excited about a trip to the Mall.
Not Me.
Give me a NEW COOK TOP to play with!!!
And who did the installation? Who Else!? My resident Handy Man!
So…First…
Good Bye my Dear Old Friend…You have served us WELL…
(FYI…Don’t look too closely at the the picture. I quit deep cleaning the old gal about ten days ago since I knew her days were numbered…so don’t judge!)
And I wonder how many of our guests over the past thirty years were aware that I cooked almost every meal with just those TWO BURNERS! (Not many indoor meals require the grill side of that cook top.)
So…out with the old…and in with the NEW…
VOILA!!!
Don’t get me wrong. I LOVED my old Jenn Aire cook top. And I don’t think anybody ever complained about the meals I served. But that modular top with only two burners certainly helped me to become an innovative cook…especially during holiday feasts…
So this was my “Maiden Voyage” with my NEW four burner cook top!
(You may remember the adventure we had when we purchased our new appliance. Read all about THAT adventure right here: Our Cook Top ROAD TRIP )
So…My first cooking creation on my new cook top?
My breakfast!
Scrambled eggs with broccoli, tomatoes, and prosciutto…and topped with sharp cheddar cheese and a bit of fresh basil…
I like my new friend! (I think I’ll name her “Cookie”.)
The Jenn-Air I had had the removable grill and I could just pop in another 2 burner cook top with ease.. I loved it. I could put in a flat grill top or the grill for steaks, etc. My only problem, I’ve alwasy been a gas cook top person. But, I loved the Jenn-Air for over 15 years as it was already in my (boyfriend-husband to be) house. Ha.
I loved my Jenn-Air too. (Did you know the inventor of the Jenn-Air was from Iowa? From a small town just a few miles from us!) I never had the additional two burner module, so I cooked all our meals on two burners…Including holiday meals! (I learned to be VERY creative!) And as much as I love to cook, I’ve never had a gas range!
