But, before buying a non-stick pan, you should know some common mistakes when using a non-stick pan. By knowing this, you can minimize mistakes when using non-stick pans in the future, so that non-stick pans will last longer.

Common Mistakes When Using Non-Stick Pans

1. Using a metal spatula

It can scratch the surface of the pan and quickly damage the non-stick coating. Use a wooden or silicone spatula.

2. Cook over high heat

High heat makes the coating peel quickly. Use medium heat so that the pan lasts longer.

3. Wash it immediately while it is still hot

Extreme temperature differences can cause fine cracks in the coating. Let it cool slightly before washing.

4. Scrubbing with an iron file

Coarse wool can damage smooth surfaces. Choose a soft sponge and liquid soap.

5. Stacking pans without guards

Friction between pans can cause fine scratches. Cover with cloth or tissue when assembling.

So, now you know what things to avoid when using a non-stick frying pan so that it lasts longer. Now, it’s time for you to choose a non-stick frying pan according to your needs.
