Excuse me, but where do you store your bakeware and other stuff, such
as your large rolling pin, your meat tenderizer, your meat grinder, etc.?
I have a stove with two ovens, one on the bottom and another one on
top. The one on top is for baking and roasting and such, the one on
the bottom is for storage. That is the reason two-oven stoves exist,
isn't it? Do you mean to imply that there are kitchens that have
enough storage space outside the oven? Nah, that couldn't be. At
least not in New York City.
do you mean the drawer on the bottom of the stove? that is not what i am
talking about. on her birthday, she asked me to make her some "BBQ"
wings. so i did, and when we got to their house, i turned on the oven to
warm them up, and she flipped out- she rarely uses the oven, so she
keeps her cookie sheets and stuff in there. I am not talking about an
apartment in any city. this is a decent sized house in suburban detroit.
No, my stove has two gas ovens. There is a regular one on the bottom,
with a broiler unit. Below it is a drawer and I use both for storage.
Above the bottom oven is the stove with four gas burners, regular size.
Above that, is another gas oven, which is probably slightly smaller
than the lower one. I could have had a microwave in its place, but
microwaves are too newfangled for me. :o)
Since it is easier for me to reach the top oven instead of bending
down to the bottom one, I like that set-up very much. It is a
Caloric, probably about twenty or so years old. The one before was
almost exactly the same, only an older model.
I believe that Barbara saw it and can tell you that this is really
what I have, two ovens in one stove and the lower one chuck full of
bakeware and other cooking necessities.
