Ceramic? Stainless steel? What should I get? I'm getting a lot of mixed answers and "AI" bullshit from trying to research it myself.

You have to hand wash it though and take care not to damage the seasoning.

Honestly, I feel like pots and pans should all be hand washed. Maybe I'm crazy lol.

You also don't have to take all that much care to not damage the seasoning. All that weird advice comes from the days when soap had lye in it. Don't soak it though obviously.

I dunno I think with stainless steel it's probably better for the pan to put it through the dishwasher than going at it with a scourer. Using the dishwasher also saves water over hand-washing, somewhat counterintuitively

A little bit of powdered detergent and hot water will lift damn near everything out of a stainless pan.

Not damaging the seasoning isn't that hard. Just use soap and a cloth. Re-seasoning is also super easy
