Timely question as my wife is battling cancer. We just purged all the teflon and other PFAS products out of the house including plastic utensils and anything else that sees heat.

We like cast iron for some tasks but nonstick is required for many things like eggs. Currently testing various higher end ceramic pans from MADE IN, ALWAYS, CARAWAY to see which we like best.
Lots of great sales this coming week.

It’s a little harder to do and facilitate at first but I disagree with non-stick being required for eggs. With a properly seasoned carbon steel pan eggs aren’t a problem. I’ve been around the block a few times with seasoning techniques. The easiest and what I use now is the lower temp methods using beeswax. I’ve been using BuzzyWax specifically. French omelets cooked with butter are easy once you get a pan just right.

Do you make sure the cast iron is up to heat before cooking? If not give it a try, I only use cast iron for cooking and have zero issues with sticking.

Sorry to hear that your wife is battling cancer, I pray she can overcome this.

I just bought a restored cast iron skillet and seasoned it and have made eggs the past couple days with very easy clean up. I cooked the eggs in fat from ground beef with little bits of meat my wife cooked so it was really tasty.... Maybe try it again after a good seasoning.
