In terms of maintenance, enamel pots are easier to maintain.  The smooth enamel surface cleans easily with mild abrasives and mild detergents, making enamel pots a low-maintenance option for busy home cooks.

Advantages:

Cast-Iron Frying Pans

 Enamel pots are available in a variety of sizes to suit different cooking needs.  Whether you're simmering a hearty stew or boiling pasta for a family dinner, there's an enamel pot to suit your culinary creations.  The versatility of these enamel pots makes them a practical choice for everyday cooking tasks.

When cleaning enameled cast iron cookware, avoid using abrasive cleaners or metal brushes to avoid scratching the enamel surface. It’s best to use a mild detergent and a soft cloth to clean enamel cookware. In addition, regularly apply a layer of cooking oil to the enamel surface to prevent rust and maintain its luster.

Baking and Roasting: These skillets are versatile enough to be used for baking and roasting, making them suitable for preparing dishes such as cornbread, roasted vegetables, and even desserts like skillet cookies and cobblers.

They are designed with a flat base to ensure excellent heat transfer and a larger surface area for faster and more simultaneous cooking.

Saute pans have higher sidewalls than frying pans, which makes them better suited for cooking foods in more liquids without the risk of the liquids spilling over. A frying pan is ideal for shallow frying meats and vegetables with very little liquid. Despite its name, many chefs prefer sauteing foods in a frying pan over a saute pan because its sloped sides make it easier to toss foods.

Lightweight, easy to maneuver, and with unrivaled heat control, the advantages of stainless steel pans make these an absolute staple in any kitchen.

CAST IRON FRYING PANS

Sure, you could flip a batch of pancakes in a Saute Pan and you could simmer a shallow sauce in a frying pan, but why would you when there's a pan that's meant for the job? Both pieces of cookware are quite versatile and capable of handling several cooking methods. Their key differences, however, will help you choose which one is right for your recipe.
