I recently replaced my old frying pan because it had developed several scratches, making it harder to clean. I had never tried a hard-anodized ceramic frying pan before, so I decided to test this new pan by cooking fish using my traditional method. I noticed that it required much less oil than my old pan, thanks to its excellent non-stick ceramic coating. The fish cooked evenly without sticking, which made the whole experience much more enjoyable and healthier. This pan is oven safe up to 500°F, so you can cook steaks using different methods. The manufacturer says the ceramic coating is free from harmful chemicals such as PFAS, PFOA, BPA, lead, and cadmium, making it a safer choice for my health. But what really bothers me is the fact that this pan is not dishwasher safe.
