Anodized v. stainless steel saute pan
Does anyone have a Cuisinart saute pan? I got both the anodized and stainless steel saute pan, and I can't decide between them
Any pro's or con's to either? I want to cook with little fat (IMO anodized is better) but I also want to be able to build a nice sauce (IMO stainless is better)
This is the anodized
this is the stainless
they are both the same size and weight
I've never used anodized before
thanks for all opinions
and maybe this should be on recipes  but I think its more home

You will definitely get a better sear on the stainless but for me I find the anondized more versatile.

Re: Anodized v. stainless steel saute pan
I am a little afraid of cooking with aluminum because it is so reactive. The anondized negates the reactivity and that is fine... but it can wear off - especially if you are hard on your cookware like I am. I use metal spatulas and wire wisks often enough that the surface does tend to scratch and flake after a while.
I actually think deglazing is more difficult with the anondized pans because scraping up the browned bits is a little challenging when you are trying to do it with rubber or wood. I use a wire balloon wisk on my stainless and it works perfectly! It also seems to give a nicer browning to meats.
So for me - because I am very rough - I'd choose stainless.

Re: Anodized v. stainless steel saute pan
I have the cusineart anondized one. I am not happy because the center popped up and now it doesn't cook right. I am so mad.
