Will his pan fry eggs without burning?

I wouldn't try it. I've seen professional cooks use smaller non-coated pans to cook eggs, but they had to use a lot of oil the pull it off. For eggs or cheese recipes I use one of my professional Tramontina coated skillets. If need be, the 12" coated Tramontina skillet uses the lid from the All-Clad pan. The lid fits like it was made for it.

As long as you set your stove's temperature correctly, you will not burn anything. You will notice that this pan gets hotter faster than most other pans due to the high conductivity of the pan, so you may want to set your stove at a lower setting at first, and try it.

Yes. You want to use a little butter or some type of oil. Make sure you use low-to-medium heat, and just the right amount of heat so that the eggs cook but not so much that it will scorch the eggs. You may have to play around with the heat settings to find out the right amount for your stove and this pan.

Technically the answer is yes but you certainly will need to use some kind of lubricant (butter, oil) or it will stick badly. This is not a non-stick pan so you will always have to use a lubricant to avoid sticking.

No, and I would never use a teflon non stick pan for deep frying. Use a Silverstone skillet and not a electric skillet.

Yes, absolutely. The key is to let the pan cool before washing or any pan may warp causing less than optimal heat distribution.

Relatively speaking, it certainly does. As an example, I heat the pan for 5 mins first, then heat oil in it for another 4 mins or so. Then cook a fried egg in it, which is probably about another 3 mins. The handle will warm up slightly near the pan, but where you grab it, it stays perfectly cool enough for normal use. (Should point out that my 'prep time' is for the all stainless, not the 'non stick')

Yes, but be careful not to let it boil dry or boil over as this can damage both the pan and the stove.

No non-stick. But I don't think it would move that much. I think a child would have to rock it really hard to do so and my son hasn't done anything like that.

Yes, I have a standard flat-top electrical range. However, I echo the caution about being careful about not overheating--on our hottest burner 3 is actually about as high as we go with this pan. The secret with the pan--and I imagine this applies to any cooking surface--is to make sure it is nice and hot before you put food into it. Huge difference with eggs sticking if you put them into a fully heated pan vs pan not adequately warm.

Brenna was right on with the reply. I would spray the pan with some cooking spray first and let the pan warm up, because if you are putting the eggs in a cold pan that could be a problem.

Of course, depending on what you are frying in any pan or any fryer you musr must monitor and adjust the temperature. Always be sure to heat this fryer with the lid OPEN. We think this is a Great Fryer!

depends on what you are cooking. certain things like veggies or bacon can cook in their own juices, no additional oil needed.when I make fried eggs I use olive oil that I put in a spray (search for Misto sprayer) and just lightly coat the bottom of the pan to get that fried texture on the egg. I can cook without it but the egg looks funny flat and shiny, almost rubbery. The nonstick coating on this outperforms all the other pans I have had, but then again I really baby this set. Stray away from metal utensils that can scrape and damage it, stick to wooden or plastic/rubber. Cleanup is a breeze with just the rough side of a dish sponge and some dawn. Rinse->Soap->Scrub->(soak, if you have time)->Rinse->Dry. depends on what you are cooking. certain things like veggies or bacon can cook in their own juices, no additional oil needed.when I make fried eggs I use olive oil that I put in a spray (search for Misto sprayer) and just lightly coat the bottom of the pan to get that fried texture on the egg.

Not in my experience. The pan and handle are big enough that the heat dissipates before getting to the handle.

It is cast iron, so yes it would be just like a cast iron frying pan, but the burner would only cover part of it so the heat distribution might not be the best.

Short answer: Yep.Longer answer: Yep. Just keep the heat on medium-low, and wait for the pan to heat up.

I have round electric burners and the fry pan heats very evenly. I haven't noticed any cool spots. I love this pan.I can cook 4 eggs at the same time and they all get done at the same time.

No, not if you season the heck out of it and use some kind of oil or butter when you cook the eggs.
261732
Yes. Set the heat just a bit lower and lift, don't slide the pan on the cook top.

Most definitely, it gets hot. Before the egg is even done, you don't dare touch the handle. I have to use an oven mitt. That is my only complaint. It should have a rubber or plastic coated handle. The handle, about 1/8" in diameter, is connected right to the pan, and the heat very quickly conducts to the handle.
