Looking for Misto Right?

I have been saying I wanted to get an olive oil mister for a long time.  I really hate the chemically taste that Pam and other cooking sprays impart on my food and it also burns fairly easily, I've found.  I have so many pans with cooked on Pam that's impossible to scrub off.

One day, I was in Bed, Bath and Beyond and finally remembered to pick up an olive oil mister and I will never, ever go back. The Misto Mister, which is the type I chose, is my new lover.  I use it all the time for everything from scrambled eggs and omelettes to stir fried veggies to baked fries in the oven.

For $9.99, it's the best $10 I ever spent.  Except for maybe that martini I had that one time at that place I can't remember the name of. That was a really good. But I digress.

You simply fill it according to the super easy instructions, pump a few times and spray for up to 15 seconds. I use it on my Cuisinart Griddler (indoor grill, like a Foreman) before I grill and stuff never sticks.  Sometimes, if you get olive oil too hot, it can smoke a bit  -- I recommend using straight up EVOO and not Extra, Extra Virgin or Extra Light olive oil; it has a slightly higher threshold for burning.

You could put other oils in it, too, if you wanted -- like canola oil or vegetable oil. I just prefer olive oil for just about everything. It's a good fat, but I sometimes still have a hard time measuring it when I cook (it never seems like enough to 'coat' the pan) so sometimes I overpour when I'm sauteeing and end up with an oily dinner that only BP could love. I find this eliminates that factor, gives a nice thin coating and so far, nothing has ever stuck.

You complete me, Misto. You had me at hello.

I give this 5 donuts.
