CRBON Carbon Steel High Wall Fry Pan

Size

This carbon steel 12” High Wall Fry Pan is 50% lighter than cast iron and heats up in nearly half the time, making it the preferred choice for many professional chefs who prize speed and precision in a restaurant environment. With exceptional heat distribution and responsiveness, the fry pan allows meat to develop a deeply browned crust in minutes. High curved sides make the pan ideal for tossing ingredients and flash cooking vegetable stir-fries. Although the pan has a black finish, it undergoes a blue annealing process – hence the name – which hardens the steel and makes it highly resistant to rust and corrosion.
