Boska Holland Toastabags, Set of 3

Boska Holland Toastabags, Set of 3These are enticing the way you toss in bread with cheese, and a few embellishments all so effortlessly. The pocket keeps in warmth from the bread to evenly heat what ever you want for a sandwich. This provides you with getting a grilled consistency and the option for adding variation to the cheese and flavoring. I think the great part is keeping the toaster clean, and also getting the full serving out just like the time before.

These "Toastabags" actually work very well for making grilled sandwiches in the toaster and have the added benefit of being washable and reusable, but there are durability issues. My wife picked these up on sale at a kitchen specialty store to try out since we eat a lot of sandwiches.

These bags are made of a nonstick material that easily holds two slices of bread and the sandwich ingredients of choice. Once assembled, we apply spray butter to the outside of the bread and insert into the bag. The first problem we encountered was fitting the bag into our old standard toaster, but even overstuffed they fit just fine in our shop kitchen's toaster that can also fit bagel halves. While these are advertised to last for up to 50 uses, we had our first one rip after just four sandwiches. Our second one is still going strong after six uses. Perhaps the first one to fail was a fluke, but it was disappointing.

The results are much better than expected, at least for grilled cheese (with or without ham) and Rubens. The outside of the bread gets nicely toasted and the insides are wonderfully "melty" hot.

Other than my concerns about the durability of these, I am very impressed with how well these work!

I was out of town last weekend for a wedding and finally drove back into town Sunday evening. Groceries were scarce in the house. Odds and ends and maybe 2/3 of any recipe, but I did have some bread and some tasty Havarti. I got the Havarti from EmmiRoth in the Boska and Culture Magazine giveaway and I've been eying it since it arrived. Tonight we feast on grilled cheese!

But wait! Didn't I score some new cheesy toy from Boska that I could use too? Victory for the Toastabags! These helped me whip up some easy grilled, excuse me... toasted cheese sandwiches. Unfortunately, since both the bread and cheese came straight from the refrigerator (yes, I'm one of those people who keep their bread in the refrigerator)they didn't melt all the way through. We still had a cool spot in the center. We did try it out the next evening with fresh cheese and bread that hadn't touch our refrigerator and it worked out a lot better.

Great little dandy meal time saving device! Just be sure to get your ingredients to room temp before using.

Really convenient way to make a grilled cheese without the clean-up. You can even add other ingredients in-between the bread and cheese (I put apple slices, Yum!) and the bag holds everything together while melting the cheese and toasting the bread evenly. I use a toaster oven and it keeps the cheese from making a mess dripping everywhere. The best thing about this product was how I could slide the bread and cheese into the toastabag, then slide the bag into a plastic sandwich bag which I put in my lunchbox, and just pop the toastabag into the toaster at work and have an ooey-gooey grilled cheese sandwich in a matter of minutes! I do kinda wish they came in different sizes or shapes, as some of the breads I eat are too cumbersome for the toastabags.

It worked just great, but when I washed it, the fabric tore along the seam. One use. The sandwich came out perfectly, but the product description indicated that it could be used repeatedly.

I can't sew it because the thread wouldn't withstand the heat of the toaster. Shame, because it is such a good concept.
