What is the difference between carbon steel, stainless clad, and non stick cookware?

Which composition works best for you differs depending on what you're cooking!

Benefits of Stainless, Non Stick, and Carbon Steel

• Non stick cookware is best for items cooked on low heat and that are fairly delicate, like eggs, pancakes, and fish.
• Stainless clad cookware is at retaining heat and is therefore great for a sear or a fry, or for your workhorse.
• Carbon steel is ideal for high heat cooking and cooking over a flame. Its ability to heat quickly makes it a perfect replacement for cast iron and like cast iron, it will develop a slick cooking surface over time with care and use.
