 Facts
 

Can also be called a skillet. They are typically 8 to 12 inch diameter with a flat pan and flared sides and with no lid. Frying pans come in many forms, but prehaps the best are cast-iron frying pans. The reason being that they are an ideal heat conductor, because cast iron heats evenly and consistently. They are also inexpensive and can last a lifetime if you keep them with proper care. Once a cast iron pan has been used for a certain period of time they should become naturally stick resistant and require no additional oil.

Some other materials that frying pans come in are,

  • Aluminum
  • Cast iron
  • Copper
  • Enameled cast iron
  • Stainless steel

Recently some pans have come with a teflon coating to the surface of the pan to make it non-stick. One of the advantages of aluminum and stainless steel pans is they generally require little maintenance, whereas copper pans require polishing to remove any tarnish.

Scanpan Classic

I started out with one pan, but i loved it so much I now own 4 Scanpan pans. It is truly a joy to cook with, i've found no other frying pan so easy to use. I know there are other titanum ceramic pans out there, but for the low cost of the Scanpan it seems a great buy.
