WE LOVE OUR CARBON STEEL COOKWARE!! This past Christmas my husband surprised me with the beautiful Carbon Steel Paella Pan, Unseasoned! I've owned 3 paella pans in the past. Not one of them has ever cooked this evenly, maintained the heat this well, or been such an easy clean up. Watch YouTube videos (there are several) to learn the proper way to season Made In Carbon Steel. When they are seasoned properly, they are like glass inside and completely non-stick.
Next, he surprised me with the 12.5" Carbon Steel skillet, Unseasoned. I use it nearly everyday. It is responsive the way copper cookware is, cooks evenly like my great-grandmother's cast-iron but easier to pick up since it's not so heavy, and the best part; the handle stays cool when I'm using it on the stove top. It transfers easily to the oven from the stove-top which I do often when cooking fish. Again, it does not stick and cleans up easily.
Next, he again surprised me; and the Carbon Steel Griddle, Unseasoned, showed up at our front door! It came with a beautiful Press and a leather sleeve for the handle. We immediately bought all of the ingredients to make Smash Burgers! We preheated the griddle on our outdoor grill, it cooked evenly and perfectly! The next morning, we used it on our gas stove and made pancakes, again, perfection!
Then, he's nuts, and surprised me with the 10" Carbon Steel skillet (he's pretty awesome :-). This time it was Seasoned. I love the size! It's perfect for bacon & eggs for just the two of us. I kind of wish it was Unseasoned as well though. There is nothing wrong with the seasoning, I just prefer the process of seasoning on my own.
Memorial Day, Made In had an amazing holiday sale. I purchased a set of 3 Carbon Steel, Unseasoned skillets for my son's 40th birthday! He's watching all of the videos about proper seasoning and is super excited for their arrival!! He's an amazing self-taught cook and has always wanted to add Carbon Steel Cookware to his collection. I'm excited to see what he creates!!
Next on my list of "I wish to own" are the filet knives. We live on North Padre Island and fishing is part of our lives. A good filet knife is a necessity. Dropping hints daily :-) and trying to convince my husband that's the quickest way to receiving the "Husband of the Universe Award"! If you want to see all of the goodness we are cranking out and the versatility of Made In Cookware, take a peek at our IG page @the_stolen_spoon
PS I haven't received anything from Made In (no free stuff and nothing solicited) we just love their quality and craftsmanship! It's not overpriced and it does everything they claim, and that's awesome!!!
