The ideal pan size for everyday use
When you are cooking for four servings, a 12-inch frying pan is ideal for most cooking. If you are cooking for two portions, an 8-inch pan may be a better alternative.
Types of pans
Non stick pans: These coated pans are lightweight and make cooking with minimal oil easy. Non stick pans are ideal for ingredients that are likely to stick on a regular pan. They heat quickly but should not be overheated and need special care as per the manufacturer’s instructions.
Steel pans: Steel alone is not a good heat conductor. But tri-ply steel pans have a layer of conductive metal that makes them suitable for cooking. Steel pans are scratch and rust-resistant. They heat up quickly but need extra oil to keep food from sticking. They are oven and dishwasher safe. They are heavier than non stick pans but lighter than cast iron.
Cast iron pans: Cast iron is heavy and needs seasoning to create a coating on it. It heats up slowly but holds heat evenly, and the food in it stays hot longer. The downside is that these pans can also hold onto strong odours of food cooked in them and react with acidic ingredients. They are very durable and are a traditional favourite.
Hard-anodised pans: A hard-anodised pan is heavier than a steel or non stick pan. But it is durable and can be heated more than a regular non stick pan. It does not react with food.
Carbon steel pans: These lightweight pans are oven safe and heat quickly and evenly. If not cared for properly, these pans can rust. They are durable and lighter than cast iron. They are a lighter alternative to cast iron pots and pans.
Ceramic pans: Ceramic cookware does not stick and has no chemical coating. However, ceramic pans cannot be overheated and are easily scratched.
Pan selection tips
- Material: Know the different pan materials and match your selected pan to your cooking style and needs.
- Thickness: Buy the thicker pan when you have a choice. A thicker pan will heat up more evenly and prevent the food from burning or sticking to the bottom.
- Riveted and rivetless: Riveted handles are sturdy but need more careful cleaning around the rivet. Rivetless handles are easier to maintain.
- Durability: Pans that last longer are a good investment.
- Ease of maintenance: If you are a busy person who has little time to spare for handwashing and seasoning pans, easy to maintain cookware is the best choice.
- Additional features: Choose a pan that has other qualities that enhance its functionality and ease of use.
- Safety: Pans that are chemical-free and that have handles that do not heat up are safer.
Stainless steel pan tips
The trick with stainless steel is to heat the pan and add a little oil. Let the pan cool a little, and then add more oil and proceed with the cooking. This additional step will keep the food from sticking to the pan.
Non stick pan tips
Non stick pans do best when they are not overheated. Buy high-quality non stick pans and use as per the manufacturer’s instructions for durability. Discard non stick pans when the coating is compromised by peeling or pitting.
