sandemara Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I prefer cast-iron pans, dutch/camp ovens etc but now only buy the cheap ones. You could pick up great variety types in the old army disposal or camping stores. My first experiment with cast iron was buying a Le Creuset set (fancy, French, v/expensive) 20-30 years ago. They worked fine, but I dropped one frypan while washing up about a month afterward. I didn't notice till the next time I tried to use it that it had a fine crack across half the pan base - totally useless. The cheap ones also crack easily if you don't take care with handling, but the loss is not as annoying. If treated with oil before first use, the cheapies work just as well, develop a nice non-stick sheen. I wouldn't bother with anything else.

JHolmesJr Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Great tip on raro....le creuset makes a small frying pan for 4k baht....so these seem well priced. Will definitely hit the klang for one when im in pattaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably got more risk of cancer from the dishwashing liquid used to clean them with. I prefer the higher quality ceramic pan, where it is baked on thick as it was intended. There are many knockoffs which are basically a spray coating and then heating treatment. As bad as the teflon pans. The coat is too thin and easily chips and breaks off. The quality ceramics are a bit expensive, but work. However, I still have a cast iron pan that I season from time to time. It is indestructible and the iron filings that are shedded, are a low cost health supplement. (Corn flakes and other prepared cereals add their iron in a similar manner, so don't scoff.) BTW, teflon was safe when used as it was intended. Unfortunately the production methods we see today are cheap and that's why the pans don't last and give off the vapors when heated etc. Avoid.

CuriousAlways Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) The most dangerous frying pan is the one used by a passive-aggressive wife to finally kill her husband after enduring years of abuse. It is also not surprising that women sometimes use kitchen utilities to kill their husbands. It is important to maintain an equal power relationship in the marriage to avoid being killed by a fry pan. Women will not accept an unequal relationship, forever. Probably, in most cases, it is best to buy light-weight aluminum fry pans, because killing someone with an aluminum fry pan to the noggin is impossible. Most of the dangerous fry pans are cast iron. They both fry better than aluminum and also have a dual use as weapons during family strife in the kitchen.

(whew)... but now that I've seen it available I won't be able to sleep until I have one...absolutely perfect fer a lot of things that I make...and a perfect griddle fer my flatbread... and I am retired on a small pension and I have a broken leg!...a curse upon those who provoked me to investigate this item... btw...ye gots to consider that the heat inertia for cast iron is a lot greater than for the heavy bottomed aluminum saute pan that I presently use and would not respond as quickly to a desired cooking temperature adjustment...and the aluminum pan has a 'cool' handle... but who cares...

Got one (diamond series) for xmas last year, and it is the only pan I use now. Just wonderful. They had a recent special: 3300 Bt for 2. I bought 2 more. I saw those advertized on Lazada.

You can get the large Raro 12" skillet for around 1250B shipped.... It's hefty - unsure of what the weight of the Lodge is..... I'd love a good cast iron griddle but cannot find one here...Cabellas in US has some but at 12k/24# pretty hard to get shipped/delivered to here...

You live in Bangkok breathing in all that filthy air and are worried about getting cancer from a frying pan ? Cancer from frying pan are easier to get than from the polluted air, I believe . In ancient days many romans died from lead poisoning using cups, plates, cooking pots with lead contents. They mixed lead with other metals.
