Long-Lasting: When properly cared for, enameled cast iron cookware sets can last for generations, making them a long-lasting and valuable investment for any kitchen.

A frying pan, or skillet, has a round shape, sloped sidewalls, and a lightweight design, which are helpful features when tossing foods in the pan. Its rim is wider than the cooking surface to promote the quick evaporation of liquids.

The sides of a French skillet are taller than those of a typical frying pan, with sides about 2 inches steep (depending on the dimensions of the skillet). While they are usually straight, some French skillets have slightly rounded or sloped sides.

Stainless steel is a highly durable material and doesn’t chip, peel or scratch easily like soft metals such as aluminium. As chefs have to handle vigorous, pan-clanging cooking day in and day out, they tend to lean toward stainless steel cookware instead of aluminium cookware.

Another massive reason why stainless steel cookware has always been the chef’s favourite is the fact that it doesn’t react with acidic foods. This means, unlike aluminium cookware, stainless steel keeps metals from leaching into your meals, resulting in healthier and tastier servings.

However, aluminium cookware has its own set of advantages too. For example, aluminium is a faster and more responsive conductor of heat, making it a great choice for fry pans. 

Again, these cookware measurements are taken at the top, so the flat cooking area of a skillet will be a few inches below its listed size. (Note: If cooking on a glass-top stove, the skillet’s curved sides won’t come in contact with the heat source.) 

The following is a side-by-side comparison highlighting the differences and similarities between the two pans.

    Another popular Dutch oven is the camping Dutch oven.  This type is designed for outdoor use and has features such as sturdy legs and a flat top for holding coals.  The Camping Dutch Oven is perfect for cooking over a campfire or using charcoal briquettes, making it a versatile option for outdoor cooking adventures.

However, they also burn food quickly. So, do not use a French skillet for food requiring low heat, such as sauce or creamy cheese.
