Good bakeware is hard to find...
When you look at all the different bakeware that’s available today, it is
easy to be confused about what you should use. The materials used include
steel,
aluminum, ceramic and now even flexible silicon. Pans may be
insulated or non-insulated, coated or non-coated. So, how do you know what
to buy?
A good place to start is in the bakery. Bakeries will typically use
solid, uncoated aluminum baking pans. Why? Because aluminum is
the best conductor
of heat that is practical for baking. Steel is much
heavier than aluminum, but doesn't conduct heat as well. Steel is also
prone to developing hot spots,
so your results may be uneven. Aluminum
is lighter than steel, will heat up quickly and cool down quickly when it
comes out of the oven.
In spite of aluminum's preferred characteristics for baking, most
manufacturers use steel to make their pans. A steel pan will either be
stainless steel,
or covered with a non-stick coating. The coating is touted
as being important so your baked goods won't stick, but we think the real
reason steel is used
so often is because it is cheaper to buy than aluminum,
and easier to form than aluminum. The heavier weight gives the
impression of quality, but steel
pans aren't preferred for baking.
And, when the coating finally wears off, the pan beneath it is going to
rust.
If that weren't enough, the darker the coating on the pan, the more
likely you are to see burning on the bottom of your baked goods. Think
how you feel when you wear black clothes outside on a sunny day. You
heat up quickly! The same thing happens in your oven, and the result
may be that your cookies are burned on the bottom before they are cooked on
the top.
