This durable skillet is designed for everyday use and is an ideal choice for the home chef. The forged aluminum promotes quick and even heat distribution throughout the pan for cooking everything. The premium Nonstick coating ensures quick and easy release of foods and allows you to prepare healthier meals using minimal oil during the cooking process. Our Nonstick coating features a top coat in a decorative geometric pattern that sets this cookware apart from others, adding a protective layer to the three-layer Nonstick coating. This beautiful geometric pattern is carried throughout most of the Taste of Home product lines, adding style and function to the tools in your kitchen. The soft-touch Sea Green handles are designed for both comfort and stability while cooking and are a perfect match to the beautiful Sea Green exterior of the cookware. The finished bottom is ideal for all cooktops, except induction. High heat is not necessary when using your Taste of Home cookware. Start with a medium-high temperature and lower when pan comes up to temperature.
