Enameled cast iron frying pans boast the same durable construction and heat retention as unfinished cast iron, but with a smooth, elegant enamel coating for easier cleanup. These pans are made the exact same way as an enameled cast iron Dutch oven: Molten iron-carbon alloy is poured into a proprietary frying pan mold and then left to cool, before being coated with an enamel made from powdered glass.
Both lightweight enameled cast iron cookware and heavy enameled cookware are available in a variety of bright colors, adding a touch of style to any kitchen. Whether you prefer the convenience of lightweight cookware or the sturdiness of heavy-duty enamel, there's an enamel cookware option to suit every cooking style and preference.
Choosing a pan definitely doesn’t need to be stressful—and it shouldn’t be. But choosing a great pan definitely takes a bit of research and forethought. First off: what recipes do you actually plan to use it for? If you’re a single cook whose typical weeknight meals consist of single-serving dishes or reheated takeout, a non stick pan is a great affordable, low-fuss option. If seared duck confit, skillet cornbread, and Spanish tortillas sound more like your speed, it may be worth investing in a stainless steel, enameled cast iron, or carbon steel pan in any size.

How to Clean Aluminum Pans
When using a cast iron griddle plate, it's important to properly maintain it to ensure its longevity and performance. Clean the griddle with hot water and a scrub brush after each use, avoiding soap, which can remove seasonings from the griddle. Dry the cast iron griddle plate thoroughly and apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust.

Frying pans are also useful for toasting nuts and seeds, melting chocolate, and cooking pancakes.
