Saucepans without teflon

If you're looking for a frying pan with some non-stick potential without Teflon, I'd look at carbon steel. It's a bit like cast iron, in that it needs seasoning, a bit of love and care, and most importantly regular use to develop a nice coating. It'll last a lifetime like cast iron, but carbon steel is much lighter. 

Stainless steel frying pans are an option too, but they have no non-stick qualities at all. If you want something you can chuck in the dishwasher without thinking about, they'd work, but you might have to run that dishwasher twice after cooking scrambled eggs as they'll have stuck to it.

Thanks, for scrambled eggs I just do them in the microwaves in a bowl  - so much easier to wash up
