Lancaster recently introduced the new No. 4 Cast Iron Skillet, as well as a new significant enhancement across all skillet offerings — the addition of a "helper handle."
The No. 4 Cast Iron Skillet boasts a seven-inch diameter and is said to retain Lancaster's hallmark traits of lightweight design and exceptional performance in heat retention and even cooking. Priced at $100, the No. 4 Skillet caters specifically to smaller households and culinary tasks that require more compact cooking solutions. It is pre-seasoned to ensure a natural, easy-release finish that improves with each use. This cast iron skillet, like all Lancaster products, is proudly made in the USA using traditional casting techniques.
The "helper handle" update, on the other hand, addresses customer feedback for improved handling and maneuverability.
