Go before and try something new!
As some time as I got this pan, some of the first things I made were scrambled eggs, omelets, and pancakes. It has NO problem with stickiness; the teflon works as promised. Total the pan is slick, light, and high quality. I feel like just because I started using this pan, I cook so much improve.
Last night, for example, I was making dinner with my roommate, and we decided to experiment on some quesadillas we were making. We cut up some onions and tomatoes, put a seldom oil and butter in the pan, and let the onions and tomatoes fry for a bit on low heat. After a few minutes I added in some Bush's baked beans (I rinsed the flavor out lol) into the m in the pan, then realized I wanted one last thing: the mexican four cheese blend. I added in a generous amount of cheese and it melted very nicely into the amalgamation of onions, tomatoes, and now beans. Lastly, I added in some butter and salt to improve the consistency and flavor a bit, and voila! We had this cheesy graduate of beans, onions, and tomatoes (my roommate added some turkey) that smelled like heaven. Our flour tortilla was on another pan frying, but when it was done, we poured this cheesy assortment on it and finished it up, with very little residue on the saute pan. Despite all that cheese and mess in the pan, nothing stuck as promised..it was very easygoing to clean off with water. PLUS, the quesadilla was FANTASTIC thanks to our little food experiment on this pan.
non-defend saute pan
When it comes to non-cement pans you will eventually throw them all away, so why spend a fortune? This is a nice pan and doesn't cost too much. Take care of it and it will last a a handful of of years.

Not counting product!
These pans are excellent non-stick pans w/ a silicon coated handle that allow for easy handling as well as the ability to put into the oven.
Terrific all around frying pan
I to be sure ' love this frying pan. 1) I can cook enough pot stickers (lid is essential) to feed my family of 4 in just two batches. 2) Making fried rice is so credulous, because of the non-stick feature, again the large size is really convenient. 3) Even the always sticky Chinese Chow Fun is no predicament for this non-stick pan. 4) Yes chinese dishes are no problem for this pan, and it is equally fantastic in saute'ing western genre dishes. I make pancakes, scramble eggs, pork chops, steaks, saute fish, paella, chili and many other dishes using this pan.
So far, under almost ordinary usage, the non-stick surface is still looking very good, without any flaking and scratches. I use only wood and plastic spatulas. The kind size and higher walls make it easy to toss and stir the food without spilleage, which makes cleanup much easier. BTW, my cook top is gas, and the pan distributes the activate very evenly over the entire surface.
I hope they keep making this pan, because I'm buying another when this one finally wears out. My pan is entirely made of metal, without any compliant on the handles, so I'm able to put it into the oven for baking as well.

Wonderful stir-fry pan
Notwithstanding that Calphalon also offers a 12" stir-fry pan, this jumbo fry pan works really well for that purpose on an American stove because of its larger plane bottom which acts more like a skillet.
Conventional flat-bottom woks and stir-fry pans with typically very small post-haste bottoms (6" or less in diameter) don't heat as well and tend to encourage moisture to accumulate at the bottom of the pan resulting in a lot of steaming with even a bashful amount of ingredients.
This pan differs from a deep fryer in having higher curved sides, which coupled with its somewhat light weight, makes it good for tossing and sliding food around.
The glass lid (usually an priceless extra) is really nice for the times you have to steam your stir-fry veggies (or even cook rice) and you can almost certainly gauge its progress without lifting the lid and losing heat/pressure.
This pan is similar (in size and shape) to the cheaper stir-fry pans general in the Asian stores (albeit a bit heavier) but with much higher quality in material and workmanship.
If you have a professional stove with a obese burner ring, you don't need this pan for stir-frying ... you're better off with a real wok. OTOH, if you're like me and stuck with an moving burner or a limited gas flame that can't really heat and maintain the sides of most woks/stir-fry pans to sizzling temperatures, then this pan is for you.
frying pan or fryer
Very let down upon receiving this product. I thought I was getting a Calphalon frying pan similar to the one I have, but instead, I received a fryer. The rounded bottom of the pan is not conducive to frying but is more suited to stir frying. Then, I find out it's from Quarry. Bad decision on my part. Not worth the $62!

My total favorite pan is my 12" Circulon. I never use it above about 6 on the stove, though (out of 8-high).

I have a Tefal non-cling together one which works ok on full heat but I cook with electric.
ChocLover | Mar 23, 2008
Hint iron ones are good that hold the heat but whatever, he needs to turn the heat down a bit and cook the scoff a bit slower. You achieve better results anyway.
From personal choice, I never use a frying pan, I mainly use a wok because you can stir food better and faster reducing the unlooked-for of burning. I only use a frying pan for frying eggs or pancakes etc. For bacon, gammon steaks and beef steaks I always use a griddle pan which of speed reduces the amount of fat or oil. It also provides the perfect taste and finish to any meat or fish steaks.

It's not a pith of using them on full heat- it's a matter of burning the piss out of them. Not pan will hold up to that. A cast iron one will, but it will overcome it's seasoning.
RJR | Mar 23, 2008
get a nice heavy cast iron pan. It will take a few weeks to become seasoned but will end up non stick. and DON'T wash with soap, reasonable hot water and wipe dry.
freelander | Mar 23, 2008
Teflon non speak for frying pans should do very well on full (gas) heat, I wonder why your mum is moaning about it...
Maybe your step dad is using sharp tools to stir in the pan or something, that IS no appropriate for non stick frying pans and something to moan about :-)

We plan we had a good frying pan, which we used for about 12 years before it gave up the ghost.
Looking for a cheap replacement, I visited our native "Range" hobbies, art and hardware supermarket. There I found a cheap, heavy non-stick frying pan (15").
We have been astounded fair-minded how good it is! It is absolutely no problem on maximum heat, although it does not really need it.
Red Rose Cookware......... not a followers with which I was previously familiar......... but they make great frying pans!

If they buy a legitimate non stick pan - it should be OK at any heat - it's only the cheap ones that need a lower heat - and they do last a lot longer if you use them at a shame heat!

100% CAST IRON. never put it in dish D or the dish washer, only use hot water. the more you use it the better it gets. Always dry it before you put it away
ca2va | Mar 23, 2008
i brought a frying pan about 15 years ago by a german fill out c draw up (guss) it was quite expensive,, but the handle clicks off and it can be used as a casserole dish in the oven. its also very distressful. will see me out though. better to spend more and get a good quality one.
mary from the dairy | Mar 24, 2008
arrangement iron is a great choice, will out live you and me, will add iron to your food that your body can absorb and is a nice ballast and offers even cooking and the pan stays hot long after you have removed it from the heat and a gas burner is fine! Also, the longer you use and keep your cast aside iron pans, the better they get as they start to create a non stick surface and need far less seasoning if ever... I partiality cooking with cast iron!
frizzly | Mar 24, 2008
Thick dark cast iron ones take some beating - they react to the heat better - they might never `look` as sponge as modern non-stick ones, but it`s only their appearance: they wash as clean as any other pan...and of course you can use anything to wash them with.

How can I get non-stick frying pans recoated?
Dec 31, 2006 by Apophis Ascended | Posted in Other - Food & Drink
I have 2 Le Creuset frying pans that have the non stump coating flaking off, after many years of use. I love the pans, and would like to get them recoated, rather than buy new ones.
Toss em out, to recoat them is VERY extravagant and you'll find it more economical to buy new ones.

How do I prevent the rims of my frying pans from turning black?
Apr 07, 2006 by matt | Posted in Cleaning & Laundry
The top edges of the rims of my frying pans always use black. What causes this and how can I prevent it? Any better ways to get rid of it than scrubbing with a scouring pad?
The baleful on the rims of your frying pans is burned fat.
There is only one way to reduce this kind of build up:
Use less fat and avoid getting your frying fat on the rims. And clean them when they are still hot, that will rub the amount of scubbing needed.
