Cooking with non-stick cookware has become pretty customary for me. I use non-stick pans to fry, sauté, and generally cook many of our meals. However, I was uninformed about the toxic fumes that are sometimes released with traditional non-stick coatings. That’s why I was intrigued when I learned about ceramic coated non-stick cookware during a visit to the Walmart headquarters earlier this summer. The makers of Green+Life cookware introduced us to their line of ceramic non-stick cookware and bakeware, which uses Thermolon technology. Since my visit to Walmart headquarters and seeing the Green+Life cookware in-person, I was offered the opportunity to review a couple of Green+Life cookware products and learn more about how ceramic non-stick cookware works.
I received the GreenLife Ceramic Non-Stick Soft Grip 12″ Open Fry Pan ($24.98) and GreenLife Ceramic Non-Stick 9.5″ x 5″ Loaf Pan ($8.98) for review. Both use the Thermolon technology, which is heat resistant to high temperatures and conducts heat better than other non-stick coatings. This means that even with high heat, no toxic fumes will be released, plus the ceramic coating will not peel off. I noticed that the pan seemed to heat up pretty quickly and I rarely had to turn up the heat higher than medium, even when cooking food like sausage.
When cooking a breakfast omelet, I purposely did not use any oil or cooking spray and the omelet did not stick to the pan! In fact, the literature that comes with the pan states that though using oil is okay, you should use a minimal amount and should avoid using olive oil altogether. Other things to keep in mind are that metal utensils are not safe to use with GreenLife ceramic cookware, though plastic, rubber, and wooden utensils are perfectly fine. Additionally, I like that the fry pan is oven safe (up to 350 degrees) and it was super easy to clean. You’ll also be glad to know it’s dishwasher safe, though I didn’t personally test that out.
I’m looking forward to using the loaf pan to bake some bread or perhaps make a delicious meatloaf for the family. If the ceramic non-stick loaf pan works just as good as the ceramic non-stick fry pan, cleaning up after making meatloaf should be easier than ever before!
