Cooking

[Rustbucket]

We use mostly stainless steel and one cast iron skillet for most day to day cooking. I have two enamel coated cast iron Dutch ovens and a carbon steel wok I use 2-3x a week. SS is necessary for the cheese making my wife does.

I don’t trust teflon and try to limit plastic dishes and utensils of any kind. With all the lobbying in this world, I don’t trust what the FDA says is safe.

Once the nonstick starts to flake they are gone.

I've Heard that before- I don't know what people are doing to these pans; I've worn out many non stick pans over the years and never had one flake. The best test is to simply put some water (not soapy) in the pan and pour it out- if it sticks anywhere, the coating is no longer non stick.
