Default Tongs for non-stick pan...?

Howdy,

I am looking for a source for tongs that can safely be used with
non-stick pans. I would think that this would be a popular item, but I
can't seem to locate any such...

Might you know a source?

Sincere thanks,

--

We sell them at our store-
www.impressivechef.com
They're stainless steel, with a non-stick coating in the clamshell-shaped
gripping parts.
If you're not in the southern NH/northern Mass. area, the ones we carry are
from Cuisipro. If you do a search on that, you should be able to find a source.

Where do you live? In the area where I live (New Jersey), you can find
what you want in any cookwares store and even in department stores
and some supermarkets.

If you use tongs properly, they pick up the food and have no (or very
little ) contact with the pan. Never saw the need for anything special.

OXO makes locking tongs with nylon heads in 9" and 12" sizes. I have
both but I mostly use the 9". I got mine from Amazon.

Some people use them to stir food in the pans.

Hi Ed,

I think that the operative word is "you."

I have little trouble making certain that my metal tongs don't nick
the surface of the pan. Other folks, not so.

All the best,

Where's that Blasphemy thread when you need it? :-)

For the OP, when I have a situation which would call for tongs in a nonstick
pan, I usually use chopsticks. (Not much help, I know, since you
specifically asked for tongs.)

You can find bamboo tongs for woks pretty easily. In fact, in Asian areas
usually a bamboo set with rice paddle, tongs, and spatula

If bamboo tongs aren't available locally, try www.cooking.com I've always
had good service from them and swift delivery.

Try the bamboo tongs sold in Asian markets. We have two pairs of
differing lengths; work well for most things.
