Frying Pans
Buying a Frying Pan
A frying pan is commonly used to cook food over high heat, such as searing meat, frying bacon, or cooking eggs. The frying pan is round with a low edge and comes in various sizes, typically ranging from 20 cm to 36 cm. Suitable for preparing a variety of dishes, from omelets and eggs to large quantities of fried potatoes.
Small Frying Pan
Small frying pans, around 20 cm in diameter, are practical for everyday use. Perfect for quickly frying an egg, cooking bacon, or reheating leftovers. Additionally, they require less washing up. At Kitchen&More, you'll find a wide range of medium-sized frying pans, 24 cm in diameter, from various brands such as Sola, Cosy&Trendy, BK, Royalty Line Switzerland, and more.
Large Frying Pan
If you enjoy cooking for multiple people, consider a frying pan with a diameter of 36 cm or larger. These large frying pans can accommodate a lot of food at once. Opt for a robust stainless steel pan from Cosy&Trendy, commonly used in professional kitchens, or go for a beautiful, durable pan with a stone coating from the Italian brand Bialetti. With a large frying pan, no dish is too much for you!
Frying Pan 20 cm
A 20 cm frying pan is ideal for quickly frying an egg or making a small batch of sandwiches. Using a smaller pan is more efficient as it retains heat better for smaller portions. Kitchen&More also offers a wide range of frying pan sets, ensuring you have various sizes on hand for any cooking task. All our frying pans feature a healthy non-stick coating, free from PFOA and other harmful chemicals. Most pans are also dishwasher safe.
Frying Pan 30 cm
A 30 cm frying pan is ideal for cooking larger quantities, suitable for 5 to 6 servings of meat/fish/vegetables or one-pot dishes. However, these larger pans are more prone to scratches, especially when stacked. Consider purchasing pan protectors to prevent damage.
Buying an Induction Frying Pan
Not all pans are suitable for induction cooktops. An induction frying pan is identified by its smooth bottom and efficient heat-conducting metal. Some pans with thin bottoms may take longer to heat up and are not recommended for induction cooking.
Ceramic Frying Pan
One of the most popular frying pans features a ceramic coating, preventing food from sticking and offering a healthier alternative to PFOA-coated pans. Ceramic frying pans are available in sizes ranging from 20 cm to 36 cm.
What Makes a Good Frying Pan?
A good frying pan should distribute heat evenly and have a non-stick surface.
Considerations When Buying a Frying Pan:
- Compatibility with your heat source
- Presence of a non-stick coating
- Price
Which Frying Pan for Induction Cooktops?
Most frying pans nowadays are suitable for induction cooking, featuring flat bottoms with a thick magnetic metal layer.
How to Clean a Frying Pan?
Avoid putting frying pans in the dishwasher. Clean them by hand without soap and avoid using abrasive sponges.
Which Frying Pans are Oven-Safe?
Pay attention to the pan's handle; if it can withstand high temperatures, the pan is oven-safe.
