Cookware - ask an Expert

Cookware is essential for every kitchen and is available in a number of different types to meet your budget and cooking techniques. Some cookware is eaisier to maintain and others offer excellent heat distribution to the total surface of the pan. Cast iron pans also heat evenly, but require a layer of oil or fat to coat the surface and prevent sticking but enameled cast iron pans do not require greasing of the surface.

Today aluminum and stainless steel have been used in the production of pots and pans. Aluminum conducts heat well, and is very lightweight, but food will stick to it. Stainless steel has less of a chance to stick, but does not conduct heat well. Modern pans are now coated with teflon to prevent the possibility of food sticking to the surface but nonstick pans cannot be used at high temperatures. On the other hand, they are easier to clean, and do not burn food easily.
