It was a sad day recently when I realized that I needed to replace our big non-stick skillet. It's been getting heavy use in our house for the past ten years and was a great skillet. As always I set out to find a replacement that is made in the U.S.A. and happily I did find one. It is made by Nordic Ware. Nordic Ware is based in Minneapolis Minnesota and has been producing cookware for over 60 years. I got their 12" Pro Cast Saute Skillet along with their 12" Universal Stainless Steel Lid.
I've bought some of their stuff in the past, like a bunt pan, and have been very happy with them, so hopefully this skillet will be as loved by me as my last one.
Not 100% of Nordic Ware's products are made in the U.S.A., so if that's important to you I'd look for them in a cooking store and check where the product is manufactured. For instance their 12" Universal Glass Lid is made in China. Shame they couldn't have found a U.S. based manufacturer to produce those lids for them.
i love non-stick skillets. i was just recently reading an old better homes & gardens where they were talking about the u.s. availability (finally) of non-stick skillets that everyone had been hearing so much about from sweden, etc. i plan to write a bit about this story in one of my planned, upcoming previews of Christmas.
