Does anyone have #advice about cast iron #cookware they can share? I've acquired these pans that have been in storage for a while. They have no branding on them. I've read there can be different quality of cast iron and the poorer quality ones can be a bother (flaking etc).
1. How can I tell if these are decent quality?
2. How should I clean them? (remove rust)
3. How can I make sure they are properly seasoned?
4. How should I maintain them, if I decide to keep?
Ooh, I love the color of these pots and pans!
What I am finding works better is to set the pan on medium heat, then add the beaten egg. I will then drop the heat level to low to finish cooking. This has been more successful at getting a uniform, pliable cooked egg layer to fold over to make the omelette, though I have not yet been able to get that slight degree of browning on the outside that I like to see in an omelette. Perhaps the efficiency of the ceramic nonstick coating prevents the browning. In any case, it has been a learning experience for someone who has been cooking omelettes for quite a few decades now.
I believe I shall enjoy these pans once I get comfortable with how I need to use them. They appear quite sturdy, and while they are a bit heavy, my hope is that they will last as long as the Calphalon pans did. The Caraway pans are rather pricey, but if they last 15 years, the per-year cost is quite small.
Those are my observations of the Caraway fry pans after a month and a half of use.
And if butter or egg or anything else drips over the side of the Caraway cookware, if the outside is too hot, it will burn and discolour the painted outside surface of the pan, which does not have the nonstick ceramic coating.
The photo below shows where I have done just that.

With my Calphalon pan, I had the burner on high when making an omelette so that the beaten egg would quickly form a solid layer in contact with the pan, then I reduced the heat to medium, which enabled me to raise the edges of the omelette, allowing the still-liquid uncooked egg to travel underneath the cooked egg, slowly building up the thickness of the layer of egg.
I quickly discovered that will not work using the Caraway pan. The pan is too hot, so the beaten egg overcooks, and the too-thick cooked layer falls apart when trying to raise the edges.

I thought I would share my experiences using my new Caraway fry pans, which I received as a holiday gift. The small pan is 8 in/20 cm in diameter, and the larger pan is 10.5 in/27 cm in diameter. The small pan is pictured below.

I'm increasingly of the opinion that 8" and 10" #cookware would be better if they were 7" and 9". I have two 7" skillets, vintage Commercial Aluminum Cookware (the company which later renamed itself "Calphalon") 1307 omelet pans, and they are much better for #CookingForOne than the 8" pans in my #kitchen.
I don't have a partner, family, or children, and I'm unlikely to ever have them again. This #neoliberalism world is not made for #singles, even though it is designed to divide and conquer us.
New Year Promises rarely stick (bear with me, there's a punchline here), but I think I've come to a point where it's time to decommission non organic and non-stick kitchen tools where possible.
I cook at least 10 meals a week on the stove, from the ground up. By the end of '25, I want to have replaced as much teflon, silicone, and plastic shit as possible in my kitchen with carbon or stainless steel, and wood
"..some imported cookware products made from aluminum, brass, and aluminum alloys known as Hindalium/Hindolium or Indalium/Indolium demonstrated the potential to leach lead when tested under conditions designed to mimic their use in contact with food, according to information provided to the FDA by the Public Health Department of Seattle and King County (PHSKC) in Washington State."

@VeroniqueB99 I have made all of the suggested changes. I find I have difficulty keeping food from sticking to my good quality stainless steel frying pans, no matter what technique I use. I have well seasoned cast iron skillets that work well for most foods.
I have seen titanium pans advertised as non-stick, and am considering buying one. They can be a bit pricey. Wondering if anyone here has tried titanium?

Oh that βnewβ glow! Mama got a new set of pans. 13 piece set of granite ware/ceramic ware is heavy bottom aluminum, Sensarte brand. Yes, Amazon Prime Days got me. Iβve had 4 other skillets from this brand that are sturdier than any others and non-stick but not Teflon. $69 is too good a price to pass up. Woke at 4:15 am and got going on housework since I canβt sleep from back pain. But hey, may as well enjoy seeing new shine and make my aromatic percolator coffee. π#Pots #Pans #Cookware
