The Pivotal Role of Fiberglass Transport Tanks in Modern Industry
- A griddle plate made of cast iron is a versatile and essential tool for any kitchen. Its flat surface allows for even heating, making it perfect for cooking a wide variety of dishes. From breakfast favorites like pancakes and eggs to lunch and dinner staples like burgers and grilled vegetables, a griddle plate can do it all.


As well as its classic contemporary look, stainless steel cookware performs well due to its superior heat conduction. Highly durable and long-lasting, stainless steel pans do an excellent job at producing deliciously browned food and searing meat at high temperatures. While it’s true that they require somewhat more upkeep than other types of cookware to ensure they continue to perform optimally, but if you’re okay with giving your frypan a good scrub after cooking, then you can expect it to last you well over a decade.

Best for: searing a nice crust on meats, such as chops and steak (not good for acidic foods, like tomato sauce, as the iron reacts, imparting a metallic flavor)
Pans are measured according to the diameter of the lip, not the diameter of the cooking surface. Most home burners can only comfortably fit a pan of around 12 inches in diameter. Because of its straight sides, a 12-inch sauté pan will also have a large, 12-inch-wide cooking surface (about 113 square inches). A skillet, on the other hand, loses at least an inch on each side, making the effective cooking area only 10 inches wide (about 79 square inches). This means that, given a skillet and a sauté pan of equal diameter, the skillet will have 30% less cooking area than the sauté pan. That's not an insignificant amount.
Carbon steel cookware boasts the naturally non stick properties and great heat retention of cast iron, combined with the cooking speed and heat control of stainless steel. We’d recommend reaching for carbon steel when cooking steaks, cornbread, or anything else cooked over high heat—though it’s versatile enough to use for low-heat cooking as well.
