Made In Cookware - Seasoned 12" Blue Carbon Steel Frying Pan - (Like Cast Iron, but Better) - Professional Cookware Sweden - Induction Compatible

Absolutely loving this carbon steel pan! My first made in pan was the Chefs pan and for the money the quality is fantastic and so on par with the likes of All Clad etc. Anyway this carbo pan is absolutely top notch quality and the blue carbon steel looks so much better than the carbon pans from De Byer, even the stainless handle is a looker. The size is just right for searing a good sized steak too and the nice deep sides are ok for a bit of stir frying. Also nice that it comes pre-seasoned too, but its not hard to season carbon (and cast iron) when the time comes and cooking in it will season it as you go as well. Superb piece and well worth the money. Highly recommended. Cant wait to buy my next piece of Made in!

This is a great pan! Love the weight and size personally, but may be a tad heavy for a small person. Needs some cooking and post cooking washing care as it deserves. Acid dishes set back the 'base layer' you build - so try to avoid lemon in your dishes (whilst in the pan) and other cooking with other acidic additives. Give it the care it deserves. Looking forward to many years together ahead. As expected, delivered efficiently.

I’m new to carbon steel and an struggling with maintaining the non stick but love that I can use it on any heat source, even in my Roccbox!

Gift for someone and they are raving about it.

Love them

This is the best Frying Pan I have ever used. It took a bit to season it because this was the first time I've used one of these but it took well and now its as slick as ice. Everything cooks wonderfully in the pan and I love the feel, weight, and folded sides that keep my food in the pan perfectly. I am already looking to replace all my pans as they are mostly nonstick Teflon pans. A nice carbon steel wok and 3 of these frying pans will make the perfect set of cookware. I'm trying a different brand called Matfer Bourgeat because Made-In doesn't make a 15" carbon steel pan. However, I cannot express to you how much I love this pan by Made-In! It is well worth the money and your cooking will be better because of it. Just take the time to season it and take care of it properly which is not much and it will take care of you.

I've own other brands like De Buyer, Matfer, Lodge, etc. But this Made In's blue carbon steel is so different than the rest. Yes, it is a bit thinner to those of comparison, but I've found that being thinner, yields a bit more versatility and quickness. I work from home, so it's vital that I'm able to just turn the gas on, and my pan is extremely hot (like it's very hot), much hotter than those I mentioned. It's a noticeable difference. There are things I did notice. I noticed that the manufacturer seasoning, it is a bit more difficult and takes longer to apply the "natural" seasoning from just following the additional seasoning and natural cooking process. The manufacturer seasoning is less non-stick. I have both 10 inch and 8 inch. On my 10 inch, I noticed that when I stripped away the manufacture seasoning and have my own natural seasoning apply itself over time. My own seasoning is much more non-stick than the manufacturers, delicate eggs, omelettes, bacon, potatoes, anything delicate won't ever stick. It's actually more non-stick than teflon. Overall, this pan is amazing. This broke my brand allegiance to other brands like De Buyer. The shape is to die for. I love the higher than normal sides but fits your standards lids.
