Capture the extraordinary flavor of the ancient Native American cooking method of "planking." With these cedar and alder planks, designed for use in modern ovens, you need no oils or fats to permeate your seafood, meat or poultry with the tangy, woodsy flavor of the Pacific Northwest. The cedar plank measures 10.5" x 17" x 1.5". The alder plank measures 7" x 17" x 1.5"
Each wood is unique:
Cedar exudes a sweet, spicy flavor with a mild smoky edge. A wood of exceptional beauty and durability, cedar has a richly textured, tactile grain combined with a palatte of warm, mellow tones ranging from light amber to deep honey brown.
Alder delivers a robust smoke flavor coupled with a light vanilla overtone. Western Alder is the wood traditionally used in the Pacific Northwest for smoking food. Because of its rich, pure smoke flavor, it is known as the premier wood for smoking.
Savory Flavors with Wood, a cookbook designed for beginning or experienced "plankers", offers delicious recipes for cooking on a plank in your oven. The cookbook covers seafood, poultry & game, meats, vegetables, fruits and more!
