Can anyone recommend a set of saucepans the type of which don’t stick but aren’t non stick, we have bought non stick in the past but so far haven’t had any that don’t stick. :-( if any of that makes sense. |

It’s a ceramic hob, we have tried some good quality ones so now we are hoping for a recommendation from someone who is using them and can say that they don’t stick. |

I have a cheap set from The Range. They rarely stick but sometimes things like scrambled egg need a bit of help and standard steel pans are alright to give a bit of a scrub with a scourer. |

I don't like non-stick or anything else you have to be careful with! |

I have two different sets and have used them for many years. |

I’ve got Stellar stainless steel pans . They are not cheap but mine must be 20 years old and still look good. They have a solid flat base so suit most hobs. I used them on a ceramic hob in our old house and I have a gas hob here and they are fine on both. They also go in the dishwasher which is a plus :-) |

I always do scrambled egg in a pyrex jug in the microwave. You have to watch it and stop it a few times to chop the mix and stir it as it sets and get it out when it is still slightly wet or it overcooks. Just plunge the jug in water after and the residue comes straight off. That's just for 2 eggs though so it might not be so good for a larger quantity. |

I've got Prestige stainless steel copper-bottomed pans - had them for 30-odd years. However I didn't like the frying pan, use a non-stick one when I do (occasionally) fry anything, or for scrambled eggs. I replace it when it gets manky (as they always do). I also have a Chasseur cast iron pan, again old, which is brilliant for lots of things. |

even in a nonstick frying pan, I always use a drop of oil or lard for frying eggs.... |

Just had a look online and it seems as though the Viner's signature range is no longer available - I did say I'd used them for years. |
