The American-based company Lodge has been fine-tuning its construction of rugged, cast-iron cookware for more than a century. No other metal is as long-lasting and works as well for spreading and retaining heat evenly during cooking. Now Lodge has added a new component: stainless steel. Handsome and contemporary, the award-winning Signature Series gleams with marine grade 304 stainless-steel handles that are riveted to the cast-iron body for strength. Specially designed silicone gaskets around the rivets prevent water entrapment, so rust won't become an issue. Each Signature Series pan comes foundry seasoned and ready to use right out of the box.
This handy 10-inch Signature Series skillet is the slightly smaller sibling of the 12-inch skillet that proudly won the 2008 Fifth Annual Housewares Design Award. The skillet's gleaming stainless-steel primary handle and loop-style assist handle add a real touch of class to the black cast iron. But it's not all about looks. The cast-iron pan heats thoroughly on the stovetop and features vertical 2-1/4-inch sides that keep in splatter and juices from frying sausages, blackening fish, and sautéing vegetables, in addition to cooking up everyday eggs, pancakes, and grilled cheese sandwiches. The pre-seasoned finish helps prevent food from sticking and rust from developing. To take care of the cast-iron finish, simply scrub the pan by hand after use with a stiff brush (never steel wool) under hot water, and dry immediately. If the handles discolor from oven-use or over-heating, they may be cleaned with stainless-steel cleaner. Cast in the USA, the skillet matches other pieces in the Signature Series and is covered with a lifetime warranty. --Ann Bieri
