Frying Pans

Frying pans are best used for foods that need fast cooking at a high heat, either dry or with oil. As the name suggests, frying pans are designed for "pan frying," which means that food is cooked in a shallow (up to one inch) of very hot melted fat or oil. Tender cuts of meat such as steak and burgers can be successfully fried, as well as eggs, fish, chicken pieces and many types of sturdy vegetables such as onions, potatoes, squash, okra and so on. Frying pans can and are used for other types of cooking, both on the stove top and in the oven. Cornbread is one example of food that is often baked in a frying pan.

Oil is used to season cast iron cookware, not clean it. Seasoning is performed with any type of cooking oil or fat (shortening, lard, etc.) Just coat the cookware entirely and place in a 350F oven for at least an hour. Repeat as needed to build up the seasoned layer.

Cleaning should be done by rinsing immediately with hot water. If stubborn stuck-on food becomes a problem, use coarse salt and a non-metal scrub brush.

To remove rust use the cut end of a raw potato as a scrubber with Comet or Ajax type scouring powder. Then re-season the cookware properly before using it.

Mild dish-washing liquid is okay for occasional use.

Always dry thoroughly before storing.

If the cookware has not been fully seasoned, a thin coat of oil after washing is sometimes used to protect the surface before storing. The entire cookware must be covered with a towel to prevent dust sticking in the oil. (It's much easier to just fully season it.)

Because the heat from the pan turns the water instantly into steam. The steam expands rapidly, taking minute droplets of the hot oil with it. The resultant mix clings to a persons skin - causing massive burns. The recognised solution - cover the pan with a damp (NOT wet) cloth. This starves the fire of oxygen, and acts as a coolant - lowering the oil's temperature below the flash point.

It is best to use vinyl and silicone cooking utensils with your stainless steel cookware, but other stainless steel utensils are fine too. Since stainless steel does not have a coating that you can scratch off. you can use anything with it!

much hotter than you need for cooking. Cast iron can probably withstand over 1000 degrees F as long as it is heated and cooled SLOWLY AND EVENLY

Making sure you have a non-stick pan definitely helps! Another thing is a little splash of olive oil. Put a little olive oil in your pan, heat it up, and crack your egg on top for perfect sunny side up eggs.

Neither. It is an object. It may be made of elements or compounds like Copper, Iron or Zinc.

I never cover mine. However, I prefer to slow roast at a low temperature. See related links below for my cooking method.

Lead is a low melting point metal and so is unsuitable for cooking utensils.

Soluble compounds of lead are also toxic.

A frying pan would be a Conductor :)

Mostly conduction.

A black surface absorbs heat better than a shiny one. However, it's not likely to be simply painted, as heat would be likely to damage paint. Many cooking utensils are silvery because they are made of metal which is a good conductor of heat.

You wear gloves because if you dont then the pepper seeds and juice will get in your cuts and just on your skin and that will burn or if u do not wear gloves then you might rub your eyes and they will burn and get irratated.

It's a good conductor of heat and doesn't melt easily.

A metal frying pan handle, covered in a good heat insulating material, means that you don't burn your hand when picking the frying pan off the stove. It also means that you don't have to insulate your hand by using a tea-towel or oven glove.

There are some Teflon sprays on the market, but individuals get mixed results, and they're usually poor. Some professional service companies will re-coat pots and pans for a fee, and they provide a generally good finished product. In the mean time, try something by way of an experiment.

The next time you want to make an omelet, have all your ingredients ready to go, heat your pan, add room temperature oil, and add the eggs immediately, moving the pan. In general, if the oil is not allowed to heat in the pan before the ingredients are added and then the ingredients are put in right away and the pan moved around, the food won't stick. Geoff Smith, a TV cooking show host, used to say, "Hot pan, cold oil, food doesn't stick."

If you start off with a heated pan, added the right amount of cold oil, and then immediately added the ingredients and then begin moving the pan right away, the oil will do its job and the food can't get a hold of your pan and stick.

Hi there many no stick pans are made from steel and teflon. The pan is usually coated in a layer of teflon to stop sticken but it can be worn away by metal utensils and washing over years. Now new technology non stick pans have come out with the teflon interweven in the actual pan so it's not just a layer.

Generally speaking, these cooking tools don't expose anyone eating things prepared in them to anything toxic. Titanium is coated with a ceramic, and neither of these materials is released in any appreciable amount from the utensil. Further, neither of these materials is toxic as they are largely inert.
