Hi... I don't really know much about decent cookware.
I just went ahead and bought a 9" frying pan from viking, but their non-stick version. I know that's some type of culinary sacrilege but I certainly don't need to be using too much oil at this point. I enjoy great ingredients but I really try to keep it as healthy as possible. My question is, can one still brown some meat in this pan, then stick it in the oven? I am not sure if the non-stick surface will accept that.
I am also wondering about the 5 qt Le Creuset french oven, if one can put it in the dishwasher? If I cook something onto it and it won't come off, will I damage the inside by really scrubbing at it? I don't want to ruin it obviously.
Thanks a lot, I'd appreciate any advice.
