PAM was introduced in 1961 by Leon Rubin who, with Arthur Meyerhoff , started Gibraltar Industries to market the spray. The name PAM is an acronym for Product of Arthur Meyerhoff . In 1971, Gilbraltar Industries merged with American Home Products now Wyeth and became part of the Boyle Midway portfolio. When Reckitt & Colman now Reckitt Benckiser acquired Boyle Midway from American Home Products in 1990, PAM became part of the American Home Foods subsidiary. In 1996, AHF was acquired by Hicks, Muse, Tate and Furst Inc., and C. Dean Metropoulos and Company from American Home Products, becoming International Home Foods, which in turn was acquired by ConAgra in 2000. PAM is marketed in various flavors, such as butter and olive oil , meant to impart the flavor of cooking with those ingredients. Flavors such as lemon or garlic are also offered.

Wesson cookingoil is a Brand name brand of vegetable oil manufactured in Memphis, Tennessee and sold by ConAgra Foods . Historically, Wesson was cottonseed oil , but as of 2009 the products currently sold under the Wesson brand are oil mixtures that may include canola oil , corn oil , soybean oil or Sunflower sunflower oil . Wesson was originally a trademark of the Southern Oil Company , named after David Wesson 1861 1934 , a food chemist at the firm who, in 1899 developed a novel process for deodorizing cottonseed oil, producing the first commercial all vegetable shortening s from cottonseeds. This new product was marketed as Snowdrift . In the 1920s, the vegetable oil division was spun off as the Wesson Oil & Snowdrift Company . This firm merged with Hunt s Foods, Inc. to become Hunt Wesson Foods , later merged with Norton Simon and later merged with Beatrice Foods . The brand was sold to ConAgra along with many other former Beatrice brands in 1990. The longtime spokeswoman for Wesson cookingoil was actress Florence Henderson , Although she sang the jingle, the word Wessonality was actually coined by a copywriter named Mark Itkowitz at BBDO New York in 1976. His initial concept was to use the Sam Cooke version of the song Personality . It was Jim Jordan, who was BBDO s Creative Director who suggested using the version by Johnny Mercer as the basis for the campaign. Florence Henderson would appear in television commercials for Wesson from 1976 until 1996. Pyrex glass and Wesson oil have the same index of refraction .

Sprays are available with plain vegetable oil , butter and olive oil flavor. Cooking spray has other culinary uses besides cooking proper. Sticky candies such as Mike and Ike that are often sold in bulk vending machines may be sprayed with cooking spray to keep them from sticking together in the machines. Coating the inside of a measuring cup with the spray allows sticky substances such as honey to pour out more easily. Vegetables may be sprayed before seasoning to make the seasonings stick better.

Unreferenced date September 2009 Par cooking refers to the technique of partially cooking foods so that they can be finished later. There are two primary reasons for using this technique. First, it allows foods to be prepared ahead of time, and quickly heated prior to serving. Since the second reheat finishes the cooking process, foods are not overcooked as leftovers often are. This is a common technique in the processed food industry, and most frozen and prepared food s are par cooked. A second reason is to take advantage of different cooking techniques. For example, one method of preparing french fries involves first boiling, then frying the potatoes, so they have a crisp exterior and fluffy interior. In stir fries or other mixed dishes, meats, root vegetables, and other foods that take a long time to cook, will be par cooked so they finish at the same time as other foods. cooking stub Cooking Techniques Category Cooking techniques he ... more details

Unreferenced date April 2007 Convenience cooking is the practice of streamlining recipes for simplicity and speed of preparation. It is a common practice in Western cultures, where both men and women work outside the home and elaborate meals are difficult if not impossible to pull off given the usual time constraints. Though seemingly a recent phenomenon, guides to convenience cooking go as far back as 1930 French Cooking in Ten Minutes by Edouard de Pomiane , which tried to minimize the time put into much French cooking of the day. Current well known practitioners of the art include Rachael Ray and Sandra Lee cook Sandra Lee in addition, Cook s Illustrated magazine has often incorporated convenience cooking principles into their recipes. Ingredient simplification A significant amount of convenience cooking revolves around simplifying recipes to five or fewer ingredients. There is a substantial genre of cookbooks devoted to such dishes, often, though not always using other prepared foods as ingredients. In this division, ingredients generally does not include such things as spices and water. Time economy Another important skill in convenience cooking is time management. This genre of cooking focuses largely on process and technique rather than ingredients, and is aimed at getting the best quality out of a quickly prepared meal as possible, especially using common kitchen tools rather than specialized equipment such as convection oven s and microwave oven s. Some recipes remove certain steps that take large amounts of time. Sometimes kneading dough is removed from the process of making bread because it requires large amounts of time and effort. A common adjunct to this school of food preparation is the slow cooker , which allows unattended preparation of braises, soups, and stews. See also Convenience food Category Cooking ... more details
