Caraway Non Toxic Ceramic Non Stick Frying Pan Sage

They push you to do these reviews early, so we haven't had a ton of time with our new Caraway pots, pans, and baking sheets yet, but I can say we are more than impressed so far.I get crazy with big purchases and do months of research. When we decided to go with a complete new set of pots and pans I did the same. Every site, so many reviews, and all the conditions I was wanting kept turning us back to Caraway. A big order later and we were in business.The frying pan we got in addition to our whole set has been fantastic. Size is just right for all we've used it for. Everything, whether it be eggs, fish, veggies, has cooked wonderfully and even. Clean up has been a breeze. Nothing is sticking. At most we've sprayed it with the heavy duty dawn, but still saw quick ... MoreThey push you to do these reviews early, so we haven't had a ton of time with our new Caraway pots, pans, and baking sheets yet, but I can say we are more than impressed so far.I get crazy with big purchases and do months of research.

The entire family loves cooking with these. The frying pan is great!

This is a very good pan based on using the pan for one month. Time will tell for overall build and non-stick quality after using for 1, 3 and possibly 5 years. Lasting 5 years would likely raise the overall rating to excellent, currently too soon to call. The Caraway fry pan is sturdy, having a hybrid steel base and aluminum pan. For this reason, it should work fine on induction cooktops. The pan is so non-stick, it is difficult to lubricate the pan with oil or butter which separates across the surface rather than adhering to the bottom flat. Lubricating the pan is therefore a question of flavoring and not needed to prevent sticking. I have not experienced any cooking result which stuck to the pan. When cooled, the pan is easily cleaned by warm soapy water, rinse ... MoreThis is a very good pan based on using the pan for one month.

When cooled, the pan is easily cleaned by warm soapy water, rinse and wipe dry.My only criticism is recommended care which came as a separate instruction in the Caraway pan box and limits cooking temperatures to medium heat or lower. While max. of medium heat will undoubtedly extend the life of the pan, this is undesirable in various cooking methods, especially when trying to brown. Due to this recommended cooking temperature, I use another non-Caraway pan for browning. On the Caraway web site, having bottom browned eggs with runny yolks, sunny side up would be nearly impossible using medium heat or less, as recommended by Caraway provided cooking care instructions.I considered buying a lid but prefer glass lids to be able to view cook status without letting the heat out. If glass lids are offered, I will also purchase a lid but not from the currently exclusive opaque lids offerings.

Purchased as a Xmas gift for my mom who didn't have a non-stick frying pan for years. I gave it to her early while home for the holidays after she read a food preparation instruction that required a “non-stick” pan for stir-fry.Unboxing was a beautiful presentation. My mom was really impressed!The cork trivet with bow, and Caraway logo’d protective bag are very nice touches, as well as the box it came in. Perfect for gift giving.We prepped the 10.5” gray fry pan as instructed and very pleased with its performance so far. I used it everyday during my 1 week stay, and plan on getting myself one as well. The quality is definitely noticeable, both in fabrication and performance. It does what it’s intended to do, and distributes the heat evenly while cooking.

The quality is definitely noticeable, both in fabrication and performance. It does what it’s intended to do, and distributes the heat evenly while cooking. Note that my mom has a new slide in electric range with glass cooktop that heats very quickly, and cooking on medium heat worked well with this pan. The handle remained relatively cool as well. Love how it arrives in its own protective bag, which is used to protect the pan while stored away in the cabinet. Not sure if it’s necessary, but instructions do advise to use wood or plastic on the ceramic cooking surface, so the bag will keep it protected if other pans happen to be stacked on top.One thing to note is that I shopped for a 10.5” cover elsewhere and it did not fit, but a 10” did, even though a bit loose. A 10.25” would have been ideal, but couldn’t find. It’s due to the metal thickness of the Caraway pan.So, this was a perfect Xmas gift, that I was happy to use as well.
