Man you can cook up a storm in that pan. :>)

Hey, thanks for that pancake recipe. I have some besan I need to use and I would love to try wheatberries in the dry blender of the vitamix. It sounds lovely.

I've been using the Berndes non-stick pan for about nine months now. It is a very solidly built pan. It will never warp and the non-stick coating is still completely intact, no chips in it. I make pancakes and veggies burgers on it with no oil or other coating, just the dry surface of the pan. The pancakes were sticking a little bit the other day, I think because I'd used it for veggie burgers. Overall I give this pan an A grade.

I bought a new Green Earth Pan by Ozeri with the textured surface. I bought this one because it uses the ceramic coating which is hopefully safer than the regular non-stick surface used by Berndes and most other non-stick pans. I used it this morning for the first time to make pancakes and it was like a hockey puck on ice, extremely non-sticky, better than the conventional teflon type non-stick. I've heard that the ceramic coating eventually loses it slipperiness. I will report back in six months.

I cast another vote for Berndes -- love mine. Even though, I must tell you I had to close my eyes at the cash register when I paid for it -- and it stayed intact in its package for a few weeks until I could decide I could use it to cook on because it was so expensive, but I am a convert! It is great.

They have been amazing and continue to be!

THis is weird, but I have had the best luck with a pan I got at Target. It was with a bunch of those "As seen on TV type things. Only cost 20 dollars, I have had it for three weeks, and it still works fine. I let it cool then soak any bit off, just rub with my hand, not much is left at any rate.

I use my Paula Deen non stick(No comments...hate her diet, but love her pans)I have never used oil or cooking spray in them, and they are 4 years old...they work great
