What is the best material for pan handles?

The Best Types of Pan Handles

When you're shopping for new pans, consider buying pots and pans that have metal handles instead of wood or plastic like Anolon cookware. All-metal handles means that a pot can be placed in the oven to keep food warm, or as an alternative to cooking on top of the stove. Wooden or plastic handles can warp, crack, split, or even melt when placed in the oven. Handles made of phenolic plastic can withstand oven temperatures up to about 350 degrees.
