Essential Features of a Frying Pan:

 

​​But first, What makes a Frying Pan great? 


Can any random frying pan qualify as a great frying pan that you can use to rustle up anything from eggs to eggplants? NO. A frying pan is gauged as “great” for their illustrious features and the gourmet results they give. So, here are the essential, according to chefs, that make a frying pan fabulous:


1. Safety When you are buying a pan, ensure it is chemical and toxin free. Ensure that the pan has all necessary safety certification because when it comes to food, you can’t and shouldn’t compromise on safety.
2. Size: The size should be such that you would have ample cooking space to place all your food items and stir them properly. Frying pans are used for multiple types of cooking and the width of the cooking surface enables you to swiftly employ different cooking methods.
3. Heat Conductivity: Heat determines the quality of your food. So, ensure that the pan you are buying is a great heat conductor and promotes even cooking.
4. Handle Ergonomically designed handle that allows a good grip is a must because you need to hold the pan while cooking to toss the pan or to simply lift it. Look for sturdy handles that either does not heat up or can be held comfortably by mitts, shields or towels.
5. Weight: A high-quality pan has generally good weight as the heavy bottom of the pan allows better searing and browning. Light pans are often an indicator of flimsy material and should be avoided.
