I saw one review that said they used these sweet, shortbread-type tartshells for a savory filling. Would this shell work for a curried chicken salad?

I haven't used this for a savory filling but I think it'll do. The shell is a bit sweet, but not too sweet so it should work well with curry.

I have used them for curried chicken salad. I would suggest something in the salad like celery or sweet peppers to make the salad slightly on the sweeter side.

I used mine with cheesecake and fruit filling. They are a bit sweet. I'm not sure they'd be the right taste for curried chicken salad.

Yes, we think the recipe you describe would work well in the aebleskiver pan. Have fun!

they are slightly smaller than my hand( male). I had a dinner party for 6 and these shells held just the right amount of crab imperial for my first course,I think I had a twisted lemon wedge on the side , it was very attractive to serve my first course in these shells.I used my grandmother's fine china salad plate to underline the shell. my guests thought it was beautiful.

America's Test Kitchen has a recipe for "roasting" a whole chicken in a crockpot. Still, as NuJoi said, the skin won't be crispy. This unit (the four-quart) will saute, steam, or slow-cook. I'm actually going to cook New York Strip in mine tomorrow. Never done that before, but I'm hoping it will come out as tender as other meats I've cooked in this unit.

Kelly, they would be perfect for that! I often use these to make personal chicken pot pies in, too.

Yes, I place a shell on the bottom and then place pieces of chicken, hot peppers, and cheese on it, I then top it all with another shell. I also have filled it with scramble eggs, hot peppers, bacon bits and cheese.

only if it was the size if a chicken. The opening is too small for a turkey. What a great Idea, though. Rhese thinfs are awesome and you get some really tasty meals with throwing in some veggies and meat.

It would work for deep frying better than shallow frying I think. It stuck badly when I tried to fry chicken with a half inch or so of oil.

yes...you can use it on any size of shell to form your cup....from the 4 inch shell to a 12 inch shell..they make execellent salad bowls and soup bowls as long as the soup isn't too soupy to soak through put one can always keep the mold under the baked shell to prevent a mess...we use them all the time...i even caught one of my kids using a baked shell for making banana splits and for corn flakes....so enjoy the many uses of food in them...

Only if they really small. The ramikens are probably most suited for side dishes or creme brulee

uncertain. I use it for heating milk (2 Qt). I think it depends on how the chicken is cut. If not cut it might be a little shallow. This is more round and flattish, not a typical roaster shape.

Yes! this is the perfect size to cook a whole chicken! I have done this several times. This is the best crock-pot!

For me it is perfect. But, I like smaller mince pies with a flaky pastry rather than a short crust type pastry. They might be a bit too shallow if you plan to use a short crust.

I am not pretty sure. When I made curry, my left over will fit right in this jar, and can used for 2 meals. does that help? :D You can put your fist in there. somehow...

I used these for individual chicken pot pies and individual meat pies. I had a small casual dinner party and served individual chicken pot pies that night. These were perfect. Some of the ladies even commented on the pans saying they were a perfect size and where did I find them. Leftover pies are easy to reheat. They hold two average soup ladle of filling. Hope this helps you make your decision.

well, if you do with boneless & small cut finger food size chicken, yes. otherwise i wouldn't do it because, it is not deep enough for frying.also the bottom is like embossing not flat at all. i did rice cook in 15 min that was too long and got brown part on the bottom. i had to soak with warm water to remove the burned rice mostly on the embossing bottom. i needed extra work. it wasn't hard though.for me, i bought it for quick rice cooking & meat stew. rice cooking takes about 7 ~ 9 min. the others i did not try yet. anyway i love it.

Possibly, I have never tried it. The chicken would cook down eventually, but might not be able to use cover initially.
