A square griddle is a grill pan with short sides and a conventional handle. The advantage of the square shape is that it can fit more pieces of whatever favorite food you might be cooking. An eleven inch square griddle can fit up to four hamburgers or four cheese sandwiches compare to round griddles that can only accommodate up to three hamburgers or cheese sandwiches.
What’s the difference between a grill and a griddle? A grill has a grid of raised bars that hold the food up and away from the heat source. It prevents the food that you are cooking from to be directly in the oil or in the fire. Let us say that the range heat is pushed high enough so that you can get that perfect grilling marks on your steaks, burgers and lamb chops that you usually see on an outdoor cooking grill.
One good quality of a griddle is that it has a smooth surface that is ideal for cooking pancakes and omelets. If you are to prepare really good pancakes, you can try using a square griddle. Of course a good recipe that is easy and simple to follow is good but what will even make it better is by using a square griddle that has been properly seasoned. Our favorite material for the griddle is of course cast iron. There are also electric griddles but those are usually round in shape.
If you live in a small apartment, definitely you can make your own food. Since the place is small, don’t be discouraged because there are still appliances that you can put and a very good example for this is a square griddle. Instead of spending to many in eating outside, try to invest in a good quality griddle and you’ll see what I mean about saving big money.
