Even if you're the kind of home cook who takes comfort in the ease of stainless steel cookware, your kitchen should still be home to at least one cast iron skillet. These invaluable pans are not only trusty but incredibly durable, designed to be used for a number of tasks like frying eggs and baking fluffy cornbread, and will only get better over time.
