One of the items going on my Christmas list is a new frying pan. I have a big, deep skillet with a nice handle and a glass lid that I bought several years back, and I absolutely love it. It’s the perfect size for me and I use it ALL the time. That is, until I noticed that the non stick coating was coming off. Gross! I really don’t want to fry up some chicken and have pieces of non stick coating in my chicken. That can’t be healthy, right?
Other than that particular skillet, I haven’t been happy with any of the cookware I’ve bought over the years. They don’t hold up well, or the non-stick coating comes off the bottom, and now I’ve heard that Teflon, which is in most of my pans, is bad for the environment. What’s a girl to do? I don’t want to spend a ton of money on pots and pans, because I’m just not much of a cook. It would be like having a Mercedes to drive once a week. LOL! I’ve seen commercials for these new Green Pan non stick pans on TV and learned that the non-stick coating in the Green Pan doesn’t contain PTFE, which is the ‘bad stuff’ in traditional non-stick pans. The manufacturer promises that these pans won’t wear out over time, which means in a few years, the non-stick coating will look good as new, versus flaking off each time I cook, like my current skillet does. The best part is that you don’t need any oil because the pans are SO non stick. I guess that would make my fried chicken recipe a LOT healthier!
