Enamel cookware has been a staple in the kitchen for decades, providing a durable and versatile option for cooking a variety of dishes.  Traditionally, enamel cookware is known for its heavy-duty construction, even heat distribution, and excellent heat retention.  However, as technology has advanced, lightweight enameled cast iron cookware has become a popular alternative to traditional heavy enameled cookware.

Cast Iron Skillets Versatility

    After cooking, your cast iron griddle must be properly cleaned.  Contrary to popular belief, it is safe to clean griddle on the stove.  Once the cast iron griddle has cooled slightly, sprinkle some coarse salt on the surface and wipe away any food residue with paper towels.  The salt acts as a mild abrasive to remove bits stuck to the cast iron griddle without damaging the skillet's seasoning.  After the cast iron griddle is clean, wipe it with a damp cloth and dry it thoroughly.

Nevertheless, if heated at high temperatures for a long time, the uppermost layer of non-stick pans still releases toxic fumes. This is why chefs are reluctant to use non-stick pans.

Skillets and sauté pans appear very similar, but the main difference lies in their shape.
