  • Matfer Bourgeat 8 1/2-inch Black Carbon Steel Fry Pan

    An 8 1/2-inch carbon steel pan is the size for two eggs, a single omelette or a pork chop, and it is a manageable size for learning how carbon steel behaves. It heats in a minute or two, and once seasoned it releases eggs much like a coated pan.Its light weight makes it easy to toss vegetables or swirl butter around an omelette with one hand. For full meals, a 10 or 11-inch pan gives more room; the table in the Details lists every size.Home cooks buy these pans as well as professionals. For a lower-sided pan for crepes, see the 8 5/8-inch crepe pan.

Fry bacon or a few potatoes in it the first several times, since fat-rich cooking lays down the patina fastest, and save eggs for when the surface has turned a deep brown. The small base heats evenly on a standard burner, and the pan is light enough to hang on a rail by the stove. Learn More
