is it better to cut hot foods , as soon as they come out of the oven or let cool

And cakes will fall if not completely cool and I am not sure how to put it into words, but if you cut a cake hot...everything isn't settled and it doesn't taste very good in my opinion. And they won't cut straight or even..kind of just glob about itself

That's true. And you can't frost a cake when it's hot because the frosting will make the top layer of the cake peel off.

i have had cakes fall as well., and also runied a great cake trying to frost it too hot that was years ago many many when i was young lol now i let it cool a long time before i frost, and like my brownies last night i cut them hot and they cut of but need to cook a ,little more , so i fixed that ok.. and they turned out good it's so funny when i cook ny hubby ,lunch and i never even get hungry i get full on the smell i guess, i barey eat lunch at all that i cook during the day, but if im making brownies i cant wait for them to cool to eat lol that funny as well just thougth of that.. and was curious can you really get full on the smell , lol i may make a post on it.. who knows take care..

thanks for the good advice, i know i must let the cake coool if im icing it but like i made brownies last night and i tryed to cut them out of the oven hot, and they did not feel done and i let them set awhile and later cut them, i actuly put them back in the oven without the heat on.. and they turned out great, then hubby gets home and he say i lkie hot brownies made then, so now i know to wait until he gets almsost time to come home and he will have fresh brownies when he gets in the door .. so now i have a whole pna of browines to eat lol but i know later he cant resits and will sneak one two .. who could resit browines any how thanks for responding take care..

thanks for the great info.. i know if i cut the pizza when right out of the oven and hot the cheese strings up way high and can get messy.. so porbably best to cool and i probably need a new pizza cutter as the one i have is not very sharp andis very old.. i will buy a really good one and pay more as some things are worht the money to get better quality. so between those two things i should have my pizza covered .. i love baking but have not had alot of time to do so. and its fattening as well so is the pizza lol.. but i will just cut back instead of cut out. helps me anyhow.. take care..

Yep. And because of that I had eaten many a piece of brownies. Pizza is so much better hot.

i agree, the brownies need to cool first and alot of times if im craving them which dont happen often then i wont want to wait to cool and they wont cut good and hubby now wants them serveed hot from the oven... so i dunno.. but we will figure it out.. along the way.. i love hot ir cold pizza so eithe way thers is fine with me.. inless its delivery from the pizza store then it better be hot lol take care..

i think your right as well i guess it depends on the pizza for me. if i make the little cheap froaen pizza's i can cut them hot and be ok but for my homemade until i get a better pizza cutter i will let it cool just for a sec longer then normal and let that cheese which i use alot of cool and not string to the cealing .lol the other pizza's are crips and good cut hot not alot of cheese on them like homemade i dont buy froaen very often.. take care.:)

lol @ u.. wanting my pizza lol.. i do love my pizza , we use to order it once a week from little ceasers and hubby got burned put and we would get eitehr a sausage or a supreme meat from there very good and cheap but no delivery.. anyhow i still crave pizza alot and i remember how good my mo's chef borydee pizza tasted when i was younger and so now i have it once a week for my supper .. just pepperoni and cheese and it is so good.. i just need to know my limit and stop i can eat the whole thing .. yikes.. hubby likes cake and browines me im more pizza and soups and salads, he's meat and potato lol . hmm im still hungry im gonna go put me in a baked potato in the oven to bake lol i'll make one for you as well lol i just wash good and cut lots of holes in it then wrap in reyonlds wrap then put some more holes and bake almost better then pizza lol.. take care.. and if you see something come flying thru your window tonight its your bake potato lol take care..

hahaha I'll leave the window open! waitin on that baked potato! yumm lol

i always get my meats out of the skllest when done and let them drain on a paper towel and get all the messy grease out hubby taught me that and i do it everytime i cook.. and im getting way better on timing my food to all get done at once.. i guess im better at clloking with age lol we have to brag sometimes even if its for ourself's lol i made homemade gravy and biscuits and bacon egg today hubby liked it so im happy..he was my worst judge lol only made me mand but better, lol take care..

thanks i will.. i am always trying new things as well i will post on what works and what dont as i like to know both sides of the story lol im like that if it dont work i want to break it down and find out why, my hubby just lol and says im nosy.. lol that is prob true as well. im getting ready to cook his ,lunch now and my tummie is growling for food.. maybe i will notget full on smell and eat today lol take care and have fun always

i think you are so right on all of that, and now that i think of it, they do cut the pizza hot, yum i love hot pizza and i love pizza so much i could eat it cold but prefer it hot out of the oven with dripping cheese strectching as you pull the hot slice away from the rest. yum.. and i make homemade pizza's as well, i make the box chef boyardee there great i get pepperoni and add my own toppings such as cheese and sometime mushrooms but never onions yuck i hate them.. so the pizza was great and made brownies as well that are pretty good.. tkae care and thanks for the great advice

i guesss it depends on how hot it is maybe let it cool just a sec to let the cheese settle down. and not string so much as i use alot of cheese on mine we like cheesy pizza;s lol and on my homemade i add more becasue it only has pepperoni on it so more cheese makes it better and i do eat it kind hot just not burning my mouth hot.. so i let it cool a few minutes..

i will try that, put it on mylist for when i get paid after i pay my small bills off , i am going to set me an amount to go buy nice good quality stuff for my home such as in the kitchen where i spend most of my time.. i bought a great pan stoneware off pampered chef , i use to sell it and i just recently got it out and started baking biscuits on it grands and you would not believe the difference all the even baking and just perfect.. so take for lunch hubby said use the stone pan lol and once again perfect tasting and looking biscuits.. i wonder if a stome pizza pan would be better as well.. hmm i dunno.. take care
