Every housewife has at least two or more frying pans in her kitchen.

The nesting doll principle is most often used to store them, when one frying pan is placed on another. This option is very convenient, because in this form the dishes take up a minimum of space, but this type of storage also has one significant drawback.

Because of this approach, the coating of the frying pan sooner or later becomes covered with chips and scratches.

At first, these defects cannot be distinguished with the naked eye, but gradually they transform into significant damage, as a result of which the dishes become unsuitable for use.

If you want to keep the non-stick layer intact and undamaged and, accordingly, extend the life of your kitchenware, look for special protective felt layers in stores.

They are supposed to be placed between dishes to protect the pans from chips and scratches.

These layers are multifunctional – in addition to being used as a protective layer, they can also act as a hot pad (but it wouldn’t hurt to read the instructions first).

The layers will protect not only your frying pans with a non-stick coating, but will also protect any other fragile items made of glass, ceramics, etc.).

For reference

Non-stick coating is a coating designed to reduce sticking to the surface it protects.
