  Buying a skillet for cooking involves making important decisions, as well as taking time. This will allow us to make a good choice and avoid inconveniences in the future. Usually, we pay a lot of attention to the price, and at other times to the quality without considering the cost. It is important to keep in mind that many times higher prices do not always translate into superior cooking performance. To make a good purchase, here are the following tips: Look for a skillet that does not have a non-stick interior surface. Make sure the skillet is slightly thicker at the edges. These types of skillets are used for sautéing vegetables and other ingredients. Ensure that the skillet measures 12 inches in diameter, as smaller skillets are not large enough to cook for more than 3 people. You should take into account that these 12-inch skillets are not heavier, and their price is also not that high. Choose a skillet that does not have too many layers of metal, neither on the sides nor on the bottom. These extra layers increase the price of the skillet without improving its performance. Select skillets that weigh no more than 900 grams. If the skillet is heavier, you will have difficulty handling it. Avoid buying skillets with stainless steel handles that heat up.
