Considerations:

There aren’t many distinctions between the two cookware, but they are designed for different purposes. Some regard the differences to be minor, while others view them to be significant. Well, you can keep both so you can efficiently prepare tasty dishes.

    A bacon press, also known as a cast iron steak weight press or cast iron bacon flattener, is a kitchen utensil designed to improve the cooking process and results of bacon. Typically made of heavy-duty materials like cast iron, a cast iron steak weight press is a flat, weighted tool that is placed on top of bacon as it cooks. Its purpose is to ensure even cooking, prevent curling, and promote crispiness by pressing the bacon flat against the cooking surface.

I can quite comfortably fit 12 pieces of chicken in a 12-inch sauté pan—a task that takes two batches with a skillet.

Stainless steel frying pans are light but durable. By itself, stainless steel is not a particularly good conductor of heat, so some pans have a better heat conductor such as aluminum sandwiched between two layers of stainless steel. For example, the Carl Schmidt Pro-X 3 Pc Set Frying Pan Stainless Steel Cookware Non-Stick, which also has a non-stick coating. It's heavier than a single layer pan, but it cooks the food more evenly.

Now this is a pretty tricky one. Frypans and skillets both rarely come with lids. When a frypan does come with a lid, it’s often made from glass which allows you to monitor food easily. Even so, it’s pretty rare for a lid to be available unless you specifically purchase the lid as an add-on.

    Cast iron cookware has been a staple in the kitchen for centuries, and for good reason.  Its durability, versatility, and ability to retain and evenly distribute heat make  Cast iron cookware a popular choice for home cooks and professional chefs alike.  From enameled pots and Dutch ovens to griddles, skillets, and griddles, there are various types of cast iron cookware to suit different cooking needs.

Worried about choosing the “best” frying pan? Well, don’t—it doesn’t exist. Instead, think about which pan is going to enhance your daily cooking experience. And while you don’t need to spend a ton on a good frying pan, we definitely recommend investing a little bit more: Not only will a higher-quality pan perform better, but it’ll also last longer.

Non stick pans have a relatively short lifespan, and require a bit of extra care to protect them from damage.

Skillets vs. Pans: Why the Confusion? 

As a result, various frying pans are available that blend the best of both worlds. Frying pans differ from French skillets. Higher sides give them a more open feeling. They do appear to be quite similar, however.
