How to choose the perfect pancake pan - useful tips

Who doesn't love delicious, flavorful pancakes, with fresh jam, young honey, fruit, and autumn vegetables like cabbage, pumpkin, beets, and healthy spinach? Everyone knows that the most important thing here is to cook the right dough, but don't forget that a bad pan will ruin even the best dough and the pancake will definitely be lumpy.

Today, FoodOboz editorial team will share with you useful tips that will help you choose the best frying pan for perfect pancakes.

Tips:

1. Never take a cheap frying pan, firstly, the dough will definitely stick to it, and secondly, unscrupulous manufacturers often use the cheapest, and therefore harmful, metal for making pans.
2. To make excellent pancakes, you need minimal sides in the pan, as high ones only interfere with the process. The maximum height is 1-1.5 cm.
3. As for the diameter of the bottom, it should be approximately 20 to 28 cm.
4. Thickness: remember that a thin bottom in a pancake pan not only heats up instantly, but also overheats, and then cools down very quickly, and this is what leads to uneven baking of pancakes, as well as burning and sticking.
5. But thin pans also quickly fail because the metal is subject to constant temperature changes: hot stove - cold dough.
6. It is best to choose cast iron or aluminum pans for frying pancakes, they are more reliable.
