Comment on YSK You don't need Teflon pans for nonstick

I keep seeing people urging to go back to cast iron or stainless steel, but when I left the nest 5 years ago, I picked up ceramic pans, and you can use them the same way as teflons and I have yet to lose the nonstick.

Don’t use bar keepers friend to clean them. That fucked up ours.

  Could be cheaper enamel. Le Cruset specifically mentions it in their cleaning instructions
  
  Bar Keeper’s Friend, or a paste of baking soda and water, also comes in handy for cleaning tough stains, oil residue and marks on your Dutch oven as well
  
  I use it on my enameled dutch oven all the time and I’ve never had an issue.

    Le Creuset enameled cast iron isn’t the same kind of thing as the ceramic nonstick the person upthread was talking about.

Don’t those use very similar coatings as Teflon?

Some people, like me, can’t possibly keep non-stick pans safe. I live on a sailboat, and the effort to keep non-stick pans (even ceramic) safe from damage is disproportionate to the advantages. Also, I am away from resupply for long periods of time. If my pan gets damaged, I can’t just hop down to the store to replace it.
