Cooking is poisonous. Eat raw foods only.

I question how non-stick though. Anyone have personal experience using ceramic?

You wonderful, beautiful, stones of tradition and purity.
Use cast iron, treat it with love.

If you're cooking at 500+ degrees ... you've got a fucking problem.

The pot can reach that temperature in a few seconds if it is heated while dry. You set the pot on an active burner, are about to pour the liquid in, and the phone rings ...

Aluminum is a neurotoxin
[–] Commie_Meta ago
Aluminum is probably not a neurotoxin. It is one of the most common elements in soils, and it is present in bentonite clay that some people consume in large amounts. It would be blatantly obvious by now if it were a significant neurotoxin.
I fry eggs perfectly in mine.
I have a castiron frying pan coated in ceramic; first off - what do you think of ceramic coating?
Secondly, my castiron takes a long time to heat up so I only break it out on special occasions, do you have any tricks about heating up the pan faster or are you just more patient?

Turn on the burner and put the cast iron on first thing, before touching anything else.
Can't remember to? Put a sticky note on every ingredient that should go in the cast iron. "Cast iron! Now!" Before long it will be a habit. You'll think bacon and find yourself plunking down the cast iron skillet.

I was just about to say that.
Ever since I bought my cast iron grill pan, I use that fucking thing all the time. Seasoning it can be a pain some times when I want to eat something now, but still worth every penny.

How do I cook so that I don't have stuff getting stuck to the pans if I can't use nonstick pans and the spray stuff?

Cast iron pans, when seasoned properly, are pretty nonstick. Just as nonstick as the teflon stuff
