Can newfangled designs improve on—or even stand up to—the tried-and-true pots and pans we've used for years? We tested lightweight cast-iron skillets (we shallow-fried breaded chicken cutlets, seared steaks and made pan sauce with acidic tomatoes and capers to see if it would react with the iron surface, baked cornbread, cooked crêpes to check browning patterns, and scrambled batches of eggs), innovative nonstick skillets (we made a series of single fried eggs without fat, not stopping until an egg stuck, and then we made crêpes to test for even browning and then moved on to beef stir-fry; frittata; and, lastly, scrambled eggs, which we also made without fat), innovative saucepans (we made pastry cream, sautéed onions, and rice pilaf), and innovative Dutch ovens (we browned meat and made it into stew, deep-fried a pound of frozen French fries, steamed 4 cups of rice, and timed boiling water).
