Matfer Bourgeat Black Steel Frying Pan, 11' dia.

(More customer reviews)
I recently bought this pan and have used it and I'm very happy with it.First, this pan is HEAVY and solidly built.The quality is excellent--for example, the rim is nicely finished and the spot welds securing the handle will last forever.The steel is very thick, at least twice the thickness of an American made Vollrath steel fry pan that I own.

I fried a couple of steaks and this pan really retains the heat.You don't have to crank up the heat to cook a steak in this pan.

I highly recommend this pan.The merchant packaged it carefully and it arrived very quickly.

Product Description:
The traditional French black steel fry pan is amazingly strong and durable, an excellent heat conductor suitable with all types of heat sources. The flat 10" iron handle is solidly fixed with spot welds, and arced, French style, for convenience and grip. Steel pans achieve and maintain both very low and very high temperatures and are thermal shock resistant, making them highly effective and versatile in the kitchen. A steel pan lasts forever. They are lighter than a cast-iron pan and won't break, scratch or peel. Carbon steel pans will change color under heat and over time - this is normal. Steel pans are suitable with all heat sources, including induction. Steel Pans are NOT dishwasher safe. Care for your Matfer fry pan by washing in hot water without soap, and wipe immediately with a paper towel. Oil lightly, if you wish, and store in a dry place. Steel pans should be re-seasoned after intensive cleaning. Seasoning the pan is simple, following the manufacturers Instructions. Dimensions: 11" x 2"

Mauviel Cuprinox Style 9.4-Inch Round Copper Frying Pan Review

Mauviel Cuprinox Style 9.4 inch Round Copper Frying Pan

I felt so guilty about spending the money on this when I first placed the order, and yet I was getting sick to death (perhaps literally) of Teflon pans, of skillets (even stainless steel ones) "Made in China" that seemed to impart weird flavors to my morning bacon and eggs, et al.The vague feelings of guilt persisted -- until the pan arrived and I started using it.This is wonderful cookware: it uses a substantially lower flame for cooking than other skillets I have, it cooks with amazingly even distribution of heat, and -- this was one of my biggest concerns -- it cleans very easily, I've experienced little difference between cleaning this and cleaning Teflon skillets.So, the comparable Teflon-coated skillet I once used has now been cheerfully tossed into the trash.True: few of us can afford a whole line of Mauviel Cuprinox, but really you should have at least one of these in your kitchen; I feel much safer cooking my food in it, and ultimately it's a lifetime investment.

I purchased this to be used exclusively as an omlet pan. It is a bit heavy, but perfectly balanced. The copper conducts heat evenly up through the sides of the pan. Not only is it perfectly functional it is beautiful hanging on my pot rack. I chose this brand because I refuse to cook on tin or aluminum and this is stainless steel lined. PERFECT!!!! I am looking to add more Mauviel products to collection.

Product Description:
This Mauviel Cuprinox frying pan features an extra-thick 2.5 mm copper exterior (0.5 mm thicker than the Cuprinox Style line), making it a favorite of chefs who value conductivity in their cookware. Copper is an unsurpassed cooking material known for its ability to heat rapidly on the burner and cool nearly as quickly when removed (it's twice as conductive as aluminum). The 10.2-inch frying pan performs particularly well when browning meats or sauteing vegetables, as its wide, flat bottom efficiently absorbs heat. The pan also features shallow, sloped sides for easier turning when mixing up stir-fries or scrambles. Style-conscious chefs will appreciate the pan's reddish-brown façade, which brightens up the dullest of kitchens.
In addition to its copper exterior, Mauviel Cuprinox cookware includes a thin layer of stainless steel on the interior of each pan. The stainless surface cleans easily and doesn't impart metallic or other off flavors, as copper typically does when interacting directly with foods. The cookware also offers durable cast-iron handles with stainless rivets that hold up to heavy use. Mauviel recommends hand washing the cookware, which carries a limited lifetime warranty.
