I didn't have much but shipping to Germany was a no go.
Now I have had glass and now induction I'm using some iron pans. The smooth bottoms play better with the glass top. They can be seasoned like cast iron. I can buy cast iron here.

Be careful as you age. Cast iron is great but heavy and seems to get heavier with each passing year. justhanginon Wednesday #11
