What is the benefit of a French skillet?

Though stainless steel started in the 1930s and continued after World War II, stainless frying pans were only mass-marketed in the 1950s. Companies concentrating on cookware produced the first stainless steel frying pans.

    One of the main features of a cast iron skillet is its flat, smooth surface, which makes it perfect for cooking a variety of foods.  Whether you're grilling a steak, grilling vegetables, or making pancakes, the even heat distribution of a cast iron skillet ensures your food cooks evenly and develops a delicious crust.  Plus, the cast iron skillet 's large surface area allows you to cook multiple foods at the same time, making it perfect for preparing meals for groups or extended families.

A French skillet is a heavy and thick saucepan usually larger, flatter, and deeper than a regular frying pan. Its size ranges from 9-11 inches, but some come in 8 or 12 inches.

If you still can’t seem to pick, however, we’d suggest our Multi-Material Frying Pan Set. This three-piece collection includes a Stainless Clad, a Non Stick, and a Carbon Steel Frying Pan, so you’ll have all of your bases covered—with room to grow.

    Enameled cast iron pots with lids are known for their durability and heat retention properties.  They are great for slow cooking, stewing and baking.  The heavy-duty construction of these pots ensures even heat distribution, making them suitable for a variety of cooking techniques.  The lid helps lock in moisture and flavor, keeping dishes tender and flavorful.

    When repairing enamel cookware, it's important to address the problem promptly to prevent further damage.  A common way to repair enamel cookware is to use food-safe epoxy or an enamel repair kit.  These kits often include a special adhesive that can be used to fill in chipped areas and restore the Enamel cookware's smooth surface.
