The reason for this is very simple: food slides off easily, we hardly need to use any oil in our recipes, and cleaning is a matter of seconds. But there is one detail that often goes unnoticed and can make the difference between enjoying our beautiful pan for years or having to replace it in a very short period of time. Do you know what we mean? Exactly! The kitchen utensils we use to prepare our food.<\/p>\n<p>One of the questions we are most often asked is whether you can use metal spatulas in non-stick pans. The answer is quite short and concise: no, or at least it is not advisable. We are going to explain in detail why, the risks involved and the best alternatives for taking care of your pans without having to sacrifice convenience in the kitchen.

However, it is delicate, and depending on the type of pan, very delicate. A simple scrape from your stainless steel spatula can leave small scratches on them. Something that neither you nor we want to happen.<\/p>\n<p>At first, you probably won&#8217;t notice it, but over time and with continued use, the surface will begin to lose its effectiveness and food will start to stick, food debris will accumulate and cleaning will become more difficult, not to mention the premature deterioration of your pan.<br \/>\nIn short: metal spatulas and non-stick pans are not the best combination and, therefore, they are not a perfect match.<br \/>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Roboto||||||||&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;23px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Safe tools for caring for your non-stick pans<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; divider_weight=&#8221;2px&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;100px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.23.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Roboto|300|||||||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|130px||130px|false|true&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;|80px||80px|false|true&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;|0px||0px|false|true&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]Now that we know metal spatulas are not the best choice for your kitchen, what can we use instead? The key here is to choose utensils that will not scratch the surface of your pan. Among all these utensils, we recommend you opt for:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Silicone spatulas:<\/strong> flexible, heat resistant and very easy to clean.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nylon spatulas:<\/strong> lightweight and safe, perfect for cooking at medium temperatures.\u00e7<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wooden or bamboo utensils:<\/strong> the most traditional, as well as durable and with a very special charm.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Any of these options more than fulfil their function of stirring, turning or serving without compromising the useful life of your pan. In the Arcos catalogue, you will find a wide variety of kitchen spatulas specially designed to be gentle on your non-stick utensils, while also being practical and very durable.

Sin embargo, es delicado, y en funci\u00f3n del tipo de sart\u00e9n: mucho. Un simple roce de tu esp\u00e1tula de cocina de acero inoxidable puede llegar a dejar peque\u00f1as rayaduras en ellas. Algo que desde luego ni t\u00fa ni nosotros queremos que pase.<\/p><p>Al principio es bastante probable que apenas lo notes, pero con el paso del tiempo y su uso continuado la superficie comienza a perder eficacia y los alimentos empiezan a pegarse, los restos de comida se acumulan y se complica la limpieza, por no hablar del deterioro que va a sufrir tu sart\u00e9n antes de tiempo.<br \/>En resumen: las esp\u00e1tulas met\u00e1licas y las sartenes antiadherentes no son la mejor combinaci\u00f3n y, por lo tanto, no existe el match perfecto entre ellas.<\/p><p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.23.1\" _module_preset=\"default\" text_font=\"Roboto||||||||\" text_orientation=\"center\" header_2_font_size_tablet=\"\" header_2_font_size_phone=\"23px\" header_2_font_size_last_edited=\"on|phone\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]<\/p><h2>Herramientas seguras para cuidar tus sartenes antiadherentes<\/h2><p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=\"#000000\" divider_weight=\"2px\" _builder_version=\"4.22.2\" _module_preset=\"default\" width=\"100px\" module_alignment=\"center\" custom_margin=\"0px||0px||false|false\" custom_padding=\"0px||0px||false|false\" locked=\"off\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.23.1\" _module_preset=\"default\" text_font=\"Roboto|300|||||||\" custom_padding=\"|130px||130px|false|true\" custom_padding_tablet=\"|80px||80px|false|true\" custom_padding_phone=\"|0px||0px|false|true\" custom_padding_last_edited=\"on|phone\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]<\/p><p>Ahora que ya conocemos que las esp\u00e1tulas met\u00e1licas no son lo mejor para tu cocina, \u00bfqu\u00e9 podemos utilizar?
