pots & pans

[kaigou]

Anyone on my flist familiar with and/or know of any good cooking pans that are non-teflon, but aren't cast-iron? I've heard of some kind of cast-iron hybrid that doesn't require seasoning, but isn't coated with teflon, the most prominent brand-name being Creuset, I think. I'm just not sure of spending that much money on new pans without being certain it's really as good as it's supposed to be, especially if there are equivalent (but less brand-name pricey) pans by someone else.

It looks like we're going to need to take a trip (to wherever) and investigate Revere Ware and Faberware in person -- those two sound like the best bets when it comes to durability for the price.

Thanks, everyone!

though I'd still really love me some Le Creuset, but only if someone else is footing the bill...

Scanpan titanium-ceramic stuff is a bit on the amazing side. It doesn't seem to scratch at all, but it's almost non-stick. Better than teflon is, anyway.

It's dishwasher safe, too, which is nice.
