Many housewives use frying pans with non-stick coating.

But it is important to take proper care of these dishes.

Otherwise, due to some mistakes in care, the frying pan may quickly become unusable.

You are heating up the empty one.

Sometimes housewives heat up an empty frying pan and only then put food on it.

However, it is not recommended to do this, as it may cause temperature differences.

Also, overheating an empty pan can negatively affect the coating of the product. Because of this, the pan will deteriorate faster.

In addition, you should not cook in such a frying pan at maximum heat.

Wash with hot water

You can't put a hot frying pan under cold water immediately after frying.

Again, there will be a sharp temperature change. And this can lead to the appearance of cracks or chips on the surface of the product.

Also, the shape of the frying pan may become deformed.

Use forks and knives

For a non-stick frying pan, use wooden or plastic spatulas.

Do not stir or turn food with forks or cut food directly in the pan.

This can cause scratches and damage to the coating, causing food to burn.
