Frying Pans and Skillets

Asked By Customers - Answered By Staff

Which frying pan is good for health?

When deciding which frying pan is good for health, you need to consider how you are frying and which is the healthiest option, like whether you are using cooking oil or not. Philip Morris and Son stock a variety of high quality frying pans from a range of brands. Our favourite is Le Creuset, who vigorously tests all their non-stick coatings for toxins and harmful chemicals. Le Creuset doesn’t use Teflon in their non-stick range. All Le Creuset products are PTFE and PFOA free and made using their own proprietary technology. Signature stainless steel is another popular non-toxic collection from Le Creuset, however, it does contain nickel and chromium which some people can suffer allergies from. If you want to invest in a really high quality piece of cookware, then look no further than Le Creuset's enamelled cast iron. Raw cast iron can cause leaching of iron, however, the enamelled coating on Le Creuset cast iron pans are made from specialised glazed clays, so prevents this from happening.

Do the bottoms of these pans or skillets warp?

The bottoms of cheaper single ply pans or skillets made from softer metal, such as aluminium, are more prone to warp. Warping can occur in cheap frying pans for a number of reasons, including thermal shock (e.g. rinsing a hot pan in cold water), overheating and mismatched pan and hob size. Using durable, multi ply pans that conduct heat more evenly are less likely to warp. We recommend investing in a cast iron or multi-ply stainless steel frying pan such as the Le Creuset Signature frying pan for its durability. Philip Morris & Son only stock premium quality frying pans and cookware that are designed to be durable, long lasting and resist warping.
