Choosing the best non stick cookware
When selecting any non stick kitchenware, it’s important to consider the following factors.
Heat distribution
Food tastes best when it’s evenly cooked. Even heat distribution is essential for any cooking surface, and it’s important to keep in mind the efficiency of a pan when making your purchase.
Handling your cookware
Make sure you look at the handles of the pan – while some brands, like Raco’s stay-cool silicone handles, ensure pans can be safely handled and heated in the oven, other handles will heat to extremely high temperatures and are unsafe for oven use.
Safety and non stick coatings
Look for safe and environmentally-responsible brands like Swiss Diamond and Neoflam that steer clear from PTFE coatings containing the acid PFOA. Health and environmental concerns have been raised about PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid), which is a chemical used in manufacturing process to bind the non stick surface PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) to pans. PFOA has been labelled by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a likely carcinogen, with high doses causing cancer in laboratory animals, and, when used at extremely high temperatures, releasing toxic fumes into the environment.
Non stick fry pan care
When purchasing cookware it’s important to take note of the care recommendations, as all non stick cookware brands require varying degrees of care. Most quality brands recommend handwashing to ensure maximum longevity, but some reinforced cookware, like Swiss Diamond’s non stick fry pan, is dishwasher as well as metal utensil safe.
