Made In Cookware - Seasoned 10" Blue Carbon Steel Frying Pan - (Like Cast Iron, but Better) - Professional Cookware - Crafted in Sweden - Induction Compatible

Outstanding pan. Putting the cast iron away! Wish the bottom was one inch wider for ribeye steaks.

After a rocky start I have grown to love this pan. I seasoned it according to directions, and tested it out with scrambled eggs. Not successful, they stuck like crazy and I had to really scrub to get the pan clean. I have a gas range and it’s very easy to turn the heat up too high. I seasoned again and tried other recipes. What I’ve learned: It works best when you use medium low heat on a gas range. I’ve had the most success when I use a LOT of oil — e.g. sautéing chicken with a mix of butter and olive oil. When you use adequate oil and keep the heat low the pan literally wipes clean with a paper towel. Food browns quickly and evenly and takes less time than in my ceramic cookware. I’ve also done stir fry type dishes in the pan, smaller portions. It works better than my wok. If you want a real treat fry eggs in duck fat :) Seriously, I like this pan so much I’m actively looking for recipes to use it with. If you are looking for low maintenance cookware to use for quick meals this may not be a good fit. But if you want a good tool that makes your cooking better I highly recommend this pan. I’ll be buying other sizes in the near future.

I am a fan of the Made In product line. Well made and made to last. I have a 10" version of this fry pan that I have seasoned myself, and it works so well that it has relegated my non-stick pans to the back of the cabinet. Looking for a larger version, i ordered the pre-seasoned 12" model. The pan quality is great but the seasoning surface was rough, felt like a poor quality cast iron pan, and was definitely not non-stick. After 6 months of using the pan and unsuccessfully trying to build up the non-stick surface I was used to, I reached out to the company to see what the problem was. Their response was quick and I am now in the process of following their directions to strip the surface down to the steel and start from scratch. Save yourself the trouble and go for the unseasoned version.

I haven't used my seasoned 12" blue carbon steel frying pan yet. But this is my initial impression. The build quality is impressive, perfect weight not too heavy. I plan on doing an additional seasoning, then I will start cooking. I will then submit a second review. I have been using my 12" carbon steel pan for about a week now, no complaints. If you use the pans correctly, you should have no issues with sticking or any of the other complaints posted. I have been in the restaurant business for the past 30 years, I would of loved to have such good equipment to work with.

Did not realize you could not wash it in the sink with other items. Instructions say not to use soap unless you plan to reseason it. You are to wipe it out after use and use oil with course salt as a scrub if needed to remove stuck on debris. I was careful the first 2 times I used it to not cook anything that might stick, and used oil. Third time bits of chicken did stick and I used the oil/salt but cannot get the pan 100% clean. Did not realize it was going to be that much of an effort to clean. It does heat evenly, handle is comfortable, fairly heavy as expected. Excellent quality. Pricey but I expect to use it for years.

Take the time to season it well for the best results. Heat distribution is even and browns meat perfectly. Not the best for a beginner cook, however a great product when you understand carbon steel. You can not soak this pan, just rinse and wipe dry. You can still do a a deglaze with wine after meat has reached desired temp. Serve and clean straight away.

🐴💩 warping my a*s this pan is one of the best pans ive ever bought. i think people arent following the directions. its not light its heavy as my cast iron. its heavy duty. maybe they sent me the wrong one but this pan is great.>>>>>>> ok its october 2 months since i got it. ive used this for all my cooking and its held up great. the color has changed it has patina great. i have cleaned it in the sink and have no problems reseasoning it. i heat it up like stainless steel. i throw it in the oven as well. ive even reheated spaghetti with tomatoe sauce and have had no problems. just reoil it after using and cleaning. gonna buy a smaller one next.

It's a good pan, little pricey. Suggest shopping around.
