Reply to comment by ElderScarletBlossom in Can anyone suggest a durable non stick cook set? Preferably one which doesn't break the bank by revnhoj

I find this hard to fathom as I watched my 90 year old grandmother use cast iron !

What exactly are you doing with it that makes it hard to handle ?

Depends on what cast iron she’s using. A modern lodge 10” will weigh a bit over 5lbs while an old Griswold will be between 3.8-4lbs.

Nether of those brands were sold in Australia in the early 1900 when she would have ether bought them or given them as a wedding gift.

Regardless she lifted the big old Dutch oven on and off the AGA wood stove with ease. Still doesn’t explain why they need to do so much lifting with a pan , when l use mine I put it on the trivet and cook , doesn’t move till I wash it .
