Why choose Xtrema ceramic Skillets?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All Xtrema cookware, including their frying pans and skillets, are made from pure ceramic. They are an all-natural product, durable, and free of metals and nasty chemicals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The clay is fired at extremely high heat to make the surface tough on these items — so no scratches likely from even your sharpest knife<\/a>. The products are among the few pans that can handle very high heat<\/a> on both the stovetop and the oven. Xtrema all-natural ceramic cookware are oven, stovetop, and fridge safe as well as microwave oven safe<\/a> and dishwasher safe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 100% ceramic range is versatile<\/strong>. The pans can go from stovetop to oven to table and then onto the refrigerator to store the leftovers. You can use them for baking, roasting, broiling, searing, and saut\u00e9ing your food – basically all the methods for cooking meat<\/a> and vegetables, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Xtrema cookware safe?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pure ceramic means no metals or toxins leaching into your food, making Xtrema cookware a truly safe option. The glaze is lead-free and of food-grade quality–so no nasty chemicals, a position backed up by the manufacturer of Xtrema on their testing page<\/a> with third-party laboratory results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ceramic offers a healthy alternative to metal and non-stick cookware. The earliest use of ceramic cookware<\/a> dates back tens of thousands of years, indicating the tried and tested suitability of ceramic as a safe cookware material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With aluminum, stainless steel, or cast iron cookware, minute amounts of metals can leach into the food while cooking (see my article on cookware material).<\/a> Yes, even stainless steel cookware can leach metals, but nickel-free options are available, as covered in my stainless steel buyers guide<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking with 100% pure ceramic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The trick with cooking with an all-natural ceramic frying pan<\/strong> is to warm the pan first for a few minutes on low heat, then spray or spritz a small amount of cooking oil onto the cooking surface. A smidgen is all you need, but go ahead and add what you wish to suit your taste or cooking style. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Xtrema ceramic cookware range is heat resistant to very high temperatures, so you won’t need to worry about oil or high heat ruining your pan as you would with some nonstick ceramic pans<\/a> — to get the most out of nonstick see my guide to nonstick use and care<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once heated, pure ceramic frying pans hold the heat and so save on power usage. This is not unlike cast iron skillets, as explained in my write-up on the best cast-iron skillets for glass cooktops<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

frying pans \/ skillets \/ Saut\u00e9 pans — Xtrema cookware reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here, I start with skillets \/ frying pans \/ saut\u00e9 pans<\/a> in the Traditions<\/em> range. You’ll find the main features of this range compared to the Xtrema Versa<\/em> design in my guide to Xtrema 100% ceramic cookware sets<\/a> — primarily it’s the handles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All pieces in the Xtrema frying pan range use radiant heat to cook ingredients inside and out. This compares with induction heating<\/a>. And so, being 100% ceramic, the Xtrema frying pans aren’t compatible cookware<\/a> for use on an induction cooktop<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Xtrema Traditions frying pan 9.5-inch<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I’d describe this item as a handy piece of cookware for any home kitchen — a go to pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The difference you find with this unit is that it is flared. The design makes it easy to transfer food from pan to plate. This 9.5-inch Traditions frying pan has a wide base allowing you to cook a variety of dishes. It is versatile and simple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
