(Care to clue me in on the proper word while you're at it?) I've tried laying them on a hot frying pan and baking them: on the frying pan, they burned before they cooked nicely; I don't remember what happened when I tried the oven but I do know it wasn't successful. At this point, I'm holding them over the open gas with two tongs. This is awkward, time-consuming, and worse - quite dangerous! Some sites mention a microwave; has anyone had success with that? I don't have one but if it helps me get my delicious lentil crispies more easily, I'll purchase one of the loathesome things. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2004:site.7476 Mon, 24 May 2004 15:02:18 -0800 cooking papads pappadam mimi
