I don't really think so! They would not be safe, especially not surgical
gloves; the best ones I ever have found are those nice thick ones sold at
blind mice mart.

Are there thin hot mits that work just as well? I have huge thick ones.

it would be extremely dangerous to use surgical gloves with cooking, in
my opinion. oven mits are the best way to go. they fit on your hand and
you can use your fingers and thumbs independently. a hot pad can be not
as safe because you are having to hold onto it and get your food at the
same time. i do use them when cooking on the stove to remove a lid, but
for oven work a hot mitt is really great.

kitchen gloves are so thick. They're meant to protect our hands from the
heat. I put my finger in there once in a while but I know it's not safe.

What about those very thin gloves; almost the texture of skin that
doctors wear for examinations?
I'm sure they are available in any drugstore.
Your finger still might get a little hot, but you can feel through
them.

Subject: [CnD] Hot Mits
I am looking for something that I don't even know if it exists.
I have gotten the hang of cooking in the skillet; I' even managing to
get bacon to turn out decently most of the time by just letting it
cook.
What I really need, though, is something that I can use in conjunction
with my tongs or spatula that will let me feel the food to see if it's
done or not. Something like a thin pair of gloves or hot mits. Does
this kind of thing even exist? So far I have had to use my
fingertips, not the reading ones, but still. I can't get all the
feedback just using a spatula, or I'd do that. Unless you all have
other suggestions. :)
Any hot mits you all would recommend for this?
Jane
