Hi KerryAnn,

AFAIK the non-stick finish is optional. None of the Le Creuset I own

has it. I see both kinds at the cookware store. Are you shopping at

a store or online?

Most is ceramic coated, but they have an omelette pan that's

non-stick. It's easy to tell which is non stick because that coating

is black/grey. The ceramic inside coating is white/cream colored.

Here's a link (page down to find the non-stick info):

Jan,

I have a 9 or 11-inch frying pan with a black-grey finish inside and

it is *not* non-stick. The frying pans are not ceramic-coated on the

inside except for certain few specialty items afaik.

Jan,

They do also make black enamel with no no-stick coating, and white insides

with non-stick coating. You have to read the box carefully, as color is no

indicator. That's why I almost made a mistake.

Sounds like I'm wrong. I guess it was too much to ask that it be color

coded (and easy to tell what's what). Mine is all ceramic coated, and

white/cream colored inside. It was a set though, maybe that makes a

difference? My MIL had some small omelette pans that were non-stick

and greyish color inside. All of this was bought at least 10-15 years ago.

Thanks,

Freaky. The message below was sent right after KerryAnn first posted

her question and it just now showed up.
