Cedar and Alder Baking Planks...Our region is beautiful, rugged and a little different from anywhere else on earth, and these products reflect that unique Northwest flavor.

Pacific Northwest Indians began cooking fresh-caught salmon on a plank far back in their history. Alder and Cedar baking and grilling planks add incredible flavor and texture to fish, vegetables and many other foods. They are reusable 40-50 times in the oven. On the gas or charcoal grill, they are consumed after one use, so we also offer packages with four single-use, "no frills" planks together especially for grilling.

Alder and Cedar Plank Recipes

Here in the Pacific Northwest we are partial to our salmon. However, plank cooking is great for many dishes. Experiment with other foods and be sure to try vegetables.

Before using your new plank, generously apply a coat of cooking oil over the entire plank.
Pour two to three Tablespoons of oil on the plank and spread it evenly over the surface with a paper towel.

Oil the groove and both ends and the back. The oil should absorb and leave a glossy surface without pools or puddles.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. (Bake everything at 350 degrees or less. Higher temperatures may cause the plank to smoke.)

Place your food directly on the plank and place plank in the oven on the center rack. A cookie sheet may be placed on the next rack down to catch any drips.

Bake until fish flakes cleanly. This usually takes longer than other methods. It's not unusual to have the plank in the oven over 30 minutes.

We serve to the table right on the plank. Caution, the plank will be very hot when it comes out of the oven!

After use, wash with hot water and soap. Remember to oil your plank each time before use. The oil helps condition your plank to withstand oven temperatures and transfers flavor to the food.

Each Plank is crafted from hand selected Alder or Cedar. During baking, expect your plank to warp, discolor and even split on the ends. This is normal and will not effect the flavor. If your plank becomes unusable, simply let us know and we will give you a return address for replacement!

Enjoy!
