What is "non-stick"?

Non-stick refers to a type of coating applied to cookware surfaces to prevent food from sticking during cooking. This coating is typically made from materials like polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), commonly known as Teflon, or ceramic. Non-stick cookware is valued for its ease of use and cleaning, as it allows food to slide off the surface with minimal effort and prevents the need for excessive oil or butter. It is commonly used for frying pans, saucepans, and bakeware, however, it is important to follow manufacturer instructions and avoid using metal utensils or high heat with non-stick cookware to prevent damage to the coating.
