The name “French Skillet” applies to any heavy and round-bottomed cookware with a pair of handles and an enamel finish but without a lid.

    For enamel-coated cast iron cookware, another option for repairing broken enamel is to use a porcelain repair kit.  These kits are designed to repair chipped or damaged enamel surfaces and can be found at most hardware or home improvement stores.  

SKILLET VS. FRY PAN: THE BOTTOM LINE

What Is A Frying Pan?

    When choosing between a square cast iron griddle and a round cast iron griddle pan, consider your cooking preferences and the types of dishes you frequently prepare.  Both options offer unique benefits that can enhance your cooking experience in different ways.  Whether you choose a square or round cast iron griddle pan, you can be sure that you are purchasing a reliable and versatile cooking tool that will serve you well for years to come.

Coated cast iron pans are glazed with an enamel coating. This eliminates the need for seasoning and makes it easier to clean them. It also prevents iron from leaching into food. Enameled cast iron, however, doesn't resist sticking as well as seasoned bare cast iron. It also doesn't withstand searing heat and can chip easily if dropped.

Cast iron is usually what you think of when you mention the word “skillet.'' Cast iron is heavy, and it can be hard to maneuver in the kitchen. However, many people love cast iron because it can retain heat. Newer pans will need to be seasoned with a light coating of oil. After the pan is seasoned, cast iron has excellent non-stick abilities. 

Copper Frying Pans

No, aluminum pans should be hand-washed only. Aluminum cannot withstand the high heat of the dishwasher or harsh dishwashing chemicals, which can tarnish or stain the surface.

Titanium frying pans are made from strong, lightweight materials and are known for their non-stick properties and fast heating capabilities. They are ideal for cooking delicate dishes and reducing the amount of oil needed for cooking. However, they are prone to warping and have a limited lifespan.

While they don’t last as long as other types of cookware, a high-quality non stick frying pan like ours can last for a few years with proper maintenance. Our Non Stick Cookware is even oven-safe, so you can use it to sear steaks and chops on the stove before finishing them in the oven.
