Frying Pans + Fat Free Cooking
Posting date: 5th November 2007 14:21
There is an ever increasing demand for fat free cookware ranges.
We currently have 3 recommended ranges for a fat free - or almost fat free - cooking regime:
Swiss Diamond cookware also promotes itself as fat free. It has a cast aluminium base with a diamond infused non stick surface. This is traditional non stick but Swiss Diamond assure us that none of the PTFE remains in the product. In terms of being fat free, we have one of these pans and I have found that most cooking works well fat free. However, an omelette does stick slightly, and you could choose to add a tiny bit of oil. When it does stick, it simply comes off with a wooden spoon so it is still very easy to clean.
Gastrolux Frying pans, sauté pans, griddles and woks, are made from a ceramic/titanium compound that forms pearls of liquid on the surface and can be cooked with entirely fat free. In addition, the non stick surface contains no PTFE, the compound which is found in the making of traditional non stick like Teflon, and has been named as a carcinogen by some, when heated over 235 degrees centigrade.
Cast Iron Griddles Any good quality cast iron griddle or grill pan with flutes can be used with only a very light coating of the food with oil.
