Cookware - Seasoned 12" Carbon Steel Frying Pan - Professional Cookware - Crafted in Sweden - Induction Compatible

New favorite pan! Easy to use, easy to clean, cooks food evenly. Made In has great videos on how to take care of and use their pans.

I gave this pan a double season in the oven over 2 days with plain old Crisco in a can. My first fry was a homemade sausage patty and two over easy eggs. Came out perfect. Don't rush for perfection. Work for it and you won't be disappointed. I'll use this pan more than my mother's Griswolds. Much lighter and, so far, has given me great results. I always clean with dish soap but season immediately with the fat in the can and medium heat. A quick wipe with a cotton bandana and I'm good to go. Love this pan.

I was very disappointed in this pan. I had high hopes because of the many recommendations. I seasoned the pan as instructed but it is still not nonstick. Everything sticks to it. It is heavy and difficult to wash. At least I didn’t pay full price. I will never buy Made in again.

Love this pan, almost, just almost better than cast iron. It is easy to clean and seasons quickly. I use both and am incredibly satisfied with this pan!!

This is a good quality pan, easy to use and clean. It heats evenly and leaves a good char when you want one. It has a smallish cooking surface and curved sides, so be aware that it feels smaller than 8". Fits 2 large eggs, max. I am not a fan of the handle, either. It is wide and flat and hard for me to grip securely, and it gets hot.

You’ll never need a nonstick/ teflon pan. No more coatings to worry about. Made In or stainless.

If you have used their carbon steel pans before then it's similar to those. I start by washing the pan with soap and water before an initial seasoning/cooking something greasy. I let it build up over time and many cooks. Preheat the pan, add fats, then add whatever you're cooking. I don't put it in the oven or season it over a heavy flame. I cook with it, clean it well and add a bit of oil for storage. This way doesn't build a pretty glossy finish on it but my eggs don't stick. It's a great pan but it just takes some time to get it the way you want.

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.

Gift for someone and they are raving about it.

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!

The pan is a little more hard work than most. Even though pre-seasoned it suggests doing another season (placed in oven at a high temp after oiling for about an hour) for better non-stick. Food stuck regardless of me doing this. Further oiling is needed after each wash which isn't easy when food sticks.

Für 140 Euro sollte man eigentlich meinen ein vernünftiges Arbeitsgerät erwarten dürfen. Das ist hier leider nicht der Fall. Erstmal zum Positiven: Nach dem Einbrennen mit Öl hat die Pfanne gute anit-haft Eigenschaften, die Reinigung ist einfach und schnell zu bewerkstelligen. Negatives: Der Pfannenboden dehnt sich beim Erhitzen aus, sodass die Pfanne nur noch im Zentrum auf dem Ceranfeld aufliegt, der Rest der Pfanne hat keinen Kontakt zur Hitzequelle. Für einen Gasherd und ähnliches mag diese Tatsache bedeutungslos sein, da der Hersteller aber mit einer Kompatibilität für faktisch alle Kochmöglichkeiten von Lagerfeuer bis zum Induktionsherd wirbst, kann ich hier nur den Kopf schütteln. Entsprechend ungleichmäßig ist natürlich die Hitzeverteilung. Im Zentrum der Pfanne heiß, zum Rand hin kaum noch ausreichende Hitze. Ob dieses Problem ein allgemeiner Designfehler ist, oder ob ich einfach nur ein Montagsprodukt erhalten habe ist bei diesem Preis eigentlich auch nicht relevant, da mangelt es an Qualitätskontrolle beim Hersteller. Kurz und knapp gesagt: Ich habe mich sehr auf dieses Produkt gefreut und bin leider enttäuscht worden, die Pfanne geht zurück...

Bought this before the US Trade Tariffs pushed the prices into the realms of silliness. I use cast iron pans but was curious to try the blue carbon steel alternative, if it's good enough for my straight razors then... It took a few goes to get the pan properly seasoned, even if it comes as "ready to go," but that might just be down to me. This reacts to heat incredibly well and gives an impeccable Maillard reaction. I can understand these are not for everyone, her indoors hates it. They require work and thought, but if you learn how to use them and Made In do a good job on their website then you shouldn't go wrong. Take the time with cleaning and seasoning and enjoy your cooking.
