Silicone cups are COLORFUL, BENDABLE, WONDERFUL and perfect for baking. You may find silicone cups at most kitchenware stores. Here are a few tips to keep in mind when you use them. Wash em first. Wash and dry the cups before using them the first time. Beware of hot stuff. Always use a hot pad or an oven mitt when handling cups that are fresh from the oven.

Soon after cooking, the edges of the cup may be cool, but the part with the food in it will still be hot. So be careful! And dont forget about steam. All food releases steam when cooked, so watch out for hot steam when youre turning food out of the cups. Stuck in the cup? If something doesnt slide right out of the cup, give it more time to cool. Then try gently squeezing the base, using an oven mitt if the cup is still too warm to touch. Squeeze the base a few times in different spots, and then try to release the food again.

If that doesnt help, slide a spoon or a butter knife between the edge of the cup and the food to help ease it out. Clean up in a snap! Cleaning the cups is easy. You can give them a quick wash with a soapy sponge in the sink, or you can put them in the top rack of the dishwasher.

Youll see this symbol whenever a recipe step involves cutting with a sharp knife, using a kitchen appliance, or handling hot things. Thats when you should BE ESPECIALLY CAREFUL. Ask for adult help whenever the step requires it or whenever youre doing something thats totally new to you.

Also, when an ingredient list calls for a pre-chopped item, ask an adult for help, especially if the item is tough to cut or if youre just not used to chopping. No matter what, an adult should be around whenever youre cooking, so you can get help any time you need it.

Make eggs the easy way!INGREDIENTS FOR 1 EGG: 1 egg 1 piece of bread (your choice)Butter Pinch of salt Pinch of pepper Place one of the cups on a plate. Crack the egg into the cup. Microwave the egg on high for 40 seconds. Meanwhile, toast the bread.
