Рецепт Magick Blog - Vintage French White Surprise
I am beginning to think this blog is magick. Here I just wrote that I never see the F-24-B (24oz) or the 7oz Ramekins in Pyroceram, they always seem to be in stoneware...
Well, I swung into the Goodwill to return a lid that was the wrong size for one of my pieces when I was greeted by an F-24-B... Complete with vented microwave lid. I was extremely excited and thought myself extremely lucky to have just "happened" across this find....
It gets better though... I thought the lid might be damaged because it was bulging slightly, so I removed the lid to check it out and.... Magick Bananas!
I was triple blessed, for hiding inside, was a 7 oz pyroceram ramekin! But it doesn't end there either. The use and care instructions for the F-24-B were underneath the 7 oz ramekin! Joy and Rapture! Evidently, these were not known as "French White" per se, but as Pop-ins.
Sadly, the 7 oz ramekin is similar to the 4 oz in that there is no "F" model number on the bottom... Just a "7oz - 200ml" and a "Made in the USA" (And even that is really hard to see, since it's not embossed well)
Regardless of the lacking model number, I am ecstatic. I now have, I think, examples of ALL the French White ramekins... (4oz, 7oz, F-16-B "16oz", and F-24-B "24oz")
Here is a family portrait of the with 1.5 liter (F-5-B) & 2.5 liter (F-1-B) parents thrown in.
Next up... The Ovals....
Ya know, maybe if I mention some of the other pieces I "never" see, they will show up too...
Wheat pattern in just about anything..... Platinum Starburst Stove top Percolator (without the chrome spout).... Electromatic Food Warming Tray.
Let's see if it works. ;-)
Where is your Corningware??
