Making a frittata doesn’t appear to be too hard. Or maybe not.

The great chefs at bon appetite® have a few tips for you to follow.

Here are two:

Use the Right Pan for the Job
We like well-seasoned cast-iron pans for our frittatas—emphasis on the well-seasoned, which combats crusty-egg-on-the-side-of-the-pan syndrome. Whatever oven-safe pan you choose, be aware of how well it conducts heat. Because it retains heat well, a heavy pan like a cast-iron will continue to cook your frittata after you remove it from the oven.

4. Fully Cook (Most) Add-Ins
A frittata makes use of fully-cooked leftovers like last night’s roasted potatoes or this morning’s leftover sausage. But if you’re starting from scratch, it’s best to fully cook any addition that might release moisture into the eggs—mushrooms, tomatoes, and summer squash or zucchini are common “wet” culprits than can water down your eggs. Sauté them separately.
