All about pot handles

Handles for utensils are of great importance for cooking. High-quality and convenient handles will help in the preparation of even the most complex dishes. At the same time, inconvenient handles with poor attachment only interfere with the culinary process. Therefore, when buying pots, the side handles of which can break, you should pay attention to these elements of the dishes. Nowadays, pot handles are made from a wide variety of materials. Consider the most common options.

In the recent past It was customary to make pens directly with the body. Currently, such dishes are becoming less and less. It is understandable, because this technology requires the use of strong materials, which, in turn, have a large mass. And as you know, a large mass of a pan or pan will indirectly counteract the cooking process, and especially washing by hand.

But there are also pluses. For instance, this design significantly increases the number of possible use cases. You can bake, for example, pies directly in the pan, putting it in the oven without fear, you can not worry about the breakdown of the fastener, because it is not there, dirt will not clog anywhere, and there is more than enough reliability in such designs.

Such designs are much more convenient and interesting. Let's take a look at the pros and cons. Let's start with the pros:

• this device allows you to most conveniently take and put the instruments;
• washing will be much more convenient and simple;
• it is much more practical to store such dishes, since a removable handle will save a lot of space;
• you can take a frying pan preheated from the oven or gas / electric stove without fear.

• Insecurity. Such a device is far from the most reliable - the mount may break at any time.
• Variety of choices. Many will say that diversity in options cannot be harmful, but in fact, the wider the choice, the more products unverified by real people, so you can buy a "pig in a poke." Therefore, you should choose the products of well-known companies - there are more reviews and they will most likely be of the highest quality, because every major manufacturer values ​​his reputation.
• Materials There are types of pens made of plastic, and if they are not removed, they can melt from high temperatures, and not only will you lose the pen, it will also fill the room with a very unpleasant odor. That is why you should wisely approach the choice of material for a removable handle.
• The need to constantly flush the fixture itself and its fastening for the reason that over time it becomes clogged with dust and dirt. As a result, the handle ceases to fit snugly on the dishes.
• Construction impracticality some varieties of mounts. There are various mounts, both reliable and not very reliable, but the mounting methods are also different. Fasteners can be screws, fasteners and many other technologies. Therefore, you need to choose the most convenient mount specifically for you.

Not so long ago, in 1909, one talented scientist invented bakelite material. Immediately, this material spread to many fields of application. Bakelite has many useful properties. It freely withstands temperatures up to 150 degrees without any damage.

In general, bakelite can be heated to 300 degrees, but in this state it will begin to char, remaining intact. The substance itself during production is not the safest, but after the production process it becomes completely harmless.

In addition to the above, alternatives may be considered.

• Stainless steel handles are no doubt very common. But they have enough flaws. One of them is unreliable fastenings, and the second - they can become very hot and easily break. But you can buy a few spare handles, fastened with rivets.
• Another way to get rid of discomfort is with silicone pads. With them, you no longer have to burn your hands; instead, the silicone will heat up.
• As handles for covers, a completely cheap handle, ordered, for example, with Aliexpress, can serve. Find it will not be a problem, there are always a lot of reviews, the price / quality ratio is at a decent level.
