Made In 11-inch Tom Colicchio Carbon Steel Frying Pan

Tom Colicchio cooked for decades with a carbon steel pan he bought at Zabar’s in the 1980s. Made In spent 18 months with him reproducing it, using 3D scanning to capture the shape, and built the result in heavier-gauge carbon steel with a long, solid handle.

The extra steel holds more heat when a cold steak or a pan of scallops goes in, so the sear keeps going instead of stalling. A broad floor leaves room to baste with butter, and the tapered walls make it easy to tilt the pan and spoon. The long handle reaches into the back of a hot oven for finishing a thick chop or a whole fish.


Colicchio Pan or the Standard 12-inch?

The Made In 12-inch Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan has a slightly larger floor, 9.25 inches against 9, and weighs about the same. Choose the Colicchio pan for the thicker steel and the brass handle, which conducts heat and calls for a towel. Made In also offers a matching Tom Colicchio Carbon Steel Roasting Pan.

    Before First Use

    • Rinse with warm water and dry completely, then warm over low heat for a few minutes with a thin film of high smoke-point oil such as grapeseed.
    • For the first several cooks, choose fattier foods. The rendered fat bonds to the factory seasoning and builds the patina faster.

    Tips for Best Results

    • Preheat over medium-low heat for a few minutes, add fat, then add food. Thick carbon steel needs less heat than you might expect for a full sear.
    • Keep a towel or mitt nearby. The brass handle gets hot on the stove and in the oven.

    Care

    • Hand wash only. Let the pan cool completely before cleaning.
    • For stuck-on food, cover it with water, bring to a boil and scrape gently with a wooden spoon.
    • Dry immediately to prevent flash rust, then wipe on a thin layer of oil and warm it gently.
    • Scrub stuck-on bits with coarse salt and a little oil. The Made In Carbon Steel Cleaning Set and Made In Carbon Steel Seasoning Wax cover cleaning and re-seasoning.
    • The steel darkens with use as the seasoning builds. Spotty color in the first weeks is normal.
