What coatings are there and what are the differences?
A Granitium pan coating combines outstanding non-stick properties with high scratch and abrasion resistance. This sounds good: these pans are extremely durable. Like all coated pans, Granitium pans are especially good for gently frying scrambled eggs, vegetables or fish. The frying temperature can be up to 230 °C
For gently frying pancakes, omelets or fish dishes with little fat and up to 230 °C, pans with traditional non-stick coatings are ideal. The plastic-based coating ensures an extraordinary non-stick effect, also enables easy pan cleaning and “glistens” with its extremely long life.
Selection with traditional coating
If healthy cooking is paramount in your kitchen, your probably not only concerned about preparing the food, but about the right cookware too. Ceramic coatings enable wonderfully low-fat frying of fish, vegetables and egg dishes. As well as its good non-stick properties this coating is highly scratch- and abrasion-resistant and also allows for easy cleaning. Maximum frying temperature is 200 °C.
MORE TIPS FOR WORKING WITH COATED PANS
Heat your coated pan slowly on a medium heat and use low or medium temperatures when cooking (2/3 of the maximum stove power). Do not use oil sprays when frying. They cause residues that are difficult to remove from cookware. With regard to cleaning: It is best to clean non-stick cookware by hand.
The following is important regarding temperatures: The non-stick properties will wear off after a time with normal use. Over-heating and burning food can accelerate this process. The pan can still be used safely. Your ZWILLING pan with non-stick coating is suitable for ovens up to 230°C and for ceramic coatings up to 200°C, with a plastic handle up to 150°C.
