Matfer carbon steel pan
so you know Matt fur I would give you know a big big thumbs up I think they're tremendous I love that they have non-vivided handles onto the pans the shape of them of course are ideal I really enjoy that they the handles don't have epoxy on them and they can easily just go straight into the oven they're great

really happy with these map for pans I would say to me for good carbon steel that's a 10 out of 10. I would highly highly recommend them
The two pans I don't recommend are Matfer because of the ongoing recall situation and De Buyer Mineral B because of its limitations while cooking in the oven.
Cites safety (against)
I loved this pan so much that when I was testing it, before I was even done, I was like, "I want this pan," and I ordered one for myself, which I never do. So I've had mine for several years and I love it. I cook in it all the time.
We tested eight pans, and believe me, they were not all good. Some of them were real clunky, some really just never took to seasoning. They had sides that were too high, really off in balance. They just were not worth it. This one's our favorite. It's Matfer Bourgeat 11 7/8-inch Black Steel Frying Pan.
This pan passed France's national safety standards, but regional regulators found that the pan released excessive levels of arsenic, chromium, and iron when cooked in a highly acidic solution for 2 hours.

once you build up that seasoning after a couple cooks it is gonna be perfect for eggs this is actually the the you know ultimate egg pan it's what I use mine for the majority of the time
Cites non-stick surface
and if this is a pan that gets you out of non-stick then my job's done so that's why I'm telling you about these pants today

Cites induction compatible
if you're on induction I'm leaning this way you know even though I'm a mineral B seller I sell the product this if I'm going to sell something in the future is the way I'm going to go for induction because this is proving itself as the right pan for induction
they now are putting into a plastic bag and coming with a little moisture absorbent um little pillow inside to allow you to get a pan that is basically raw from the factory so seasoning should be a lot easier

Cites coating, ease of cleaning, handle, heat control, heat resistance, induction compatible, maintenance, non-stick surface, oven safe, shape and form, warp resistance
and the thing that's great with the matte fur is that the handle can go into whatever temperature into the oven we want
it now is kind of kind of turned like a golden orange color because it's oxidizing a little bit so it's very obvious that that pan is being exposed the raw metal is being exposed to the air
and now the new matte fur come without anything on them they're really nice and easy to clean
but this guy is definitely you know non-stick on there there's no doubt about that right
so looking at these two pans we've got that this was the first time that I ever cooked on them you know that you know nothing's really stuck on here
this guy here behaved a lot better in being at a preheat of 250 previously like I was saying I was at 250 preheat it looked like I got too hot I went down it got too cool and it wasn't a great result this guy's looking quite perfect at the moment sitting at 250
so that's a really nice result right there doing its thing induction burner gets a little bit mad when you do that this guy here same thing so great result okay so definitely that factor of that first cook with a new pan you know seedling that surface definitely helps so our second result here is really great
right now there is zero spinning from this is the one that was abused this is the one that was not and they are not spinning whatsoever
okay so clean and cool cool zero spinning so that is great that cheap what I think is kind of crappy induction cooktop I have been able to make spinners out of other carbon steel with that cooktop um it does make spinners these guys didn't that's a tremendous result so super stoked
so you know Matt fur I would give you know a big big thumbs up I think they're tremendous I love that they have non-vivided handles onto the pans the shape of them of course are ideal I really enjoy that they the handles don't have epoxy on them and they can easily just go straight into the oven they're great

But one brand recently made headlines for the wrong reasons. Matfer Black Carbon Steel pans were recalled in a region of France after testing showed high levels of arsenic, chromium, and iron when the pan was used to boil a highly acidic solution for 2 hours.
It also really took to seasoning well. It basically got seasoned and kept getting more and more non-stick. Some of the other pans seemed to really take a step back occasionally. You'd go through the whole seasoning process, cook something, and it would just come up. This really just kept building.
Cites seasoning durability
Brands like Matfer Bourgeat, made in France since 1814, and De Buyer still forge their pans from a single sheet of steel with no coatings, no rivets, and no weak points.
Cites build quality
but for some reason sambal completely wrecked my pan about six months ago and i had to restart so that is definitely one i would advise you watch out for

Cites handle
Matt fur makes sense if you love no rivets awesome
One other factor that was important with skillets, especially ones that you're gonna be searing in and that you might be baking in or cooking in, is rivets, the way the handle is attached to the pan. A lot of them had big, lumpy rivets, and they actually acquired a lot of schmutz, basically. This is nice and smooth.…
Cites build quality, ease of cleaning
There are several things that we really loved about this pan and one is you want some space to cook. This is 12 inches or 11 7/8 rim to rim and that's how they measure it. Then, the sides come down, and some of these tapered down like a wok to this little tiny space at the bottom. This one gives you a good broad…
Cites even heating, size and capacity, handle
Finally, the angle of the handle, this goes up a little bit. A lot of European pans do that. They tend to angle up. American pans, for whatever reason, tend to go flat. This is a French pan. It is angled up a little bit, but not so high that it was hard to get into the oven. When we were making tarte Tatin, you start…
this pan already cooks non-stick no problem and yours should too if you're using it properly
Cites non-stick surface
i bought it in april it's now january so after a few mishaps there's been about six months in between this being a stripped silver pan and now being completely black
Owned 9 months
Cites seasoning durability
i have a new larger style mat for carbon steel pan here that i got for christmas and i've used about less than 10 times and you can already see the seasoning is developing on it
this guy as we know was the one that got overly preheated at the beginning so it looked like it had like damage but it's not damaged it has discoloration in the middle

Cites durability, heat resistance
this is a great pan that could be used for anything before you try to fry some eggs in it
Cites versatility
This ruling may not be totally fair, but until it's fully resolved, there are plenty of other carbon steel pans that don't come with that level of uncertainty.
Cites safety (against)
The handle is all metal and that's a good thing. Some of them had other things on the handle. You you wanna be able to use this in the oven or on the stove top, and we like that this one has an all-metal handle. It's not super comfortable, but it's not bad. Some of the hands we tested had very awkward balance when you…

I am a big fan of of the mineral B pen they work extremely well but there's really no difference here you're splitting hairs

now some people have a lot of trouble getting off because it's actually on there real good especially for this model pan

I've been cooking with the pan for months and it's worked up a good seasoning

i use mine one to two times a day it's always kept on the stove
these guys have gone a tiny little bit more blotchy than I'm used to but you know this doesn't really matter seeing the blotchiness is is not a big deal

it takes time for the nonstick qualities to really build up and be effective enough to fry an egg and not have it stick
Cites non-stick surface
Matfer is appealing the decision and says the test conditions don't reflect real-world cooking. They also point out that their pans meet all EU and French safety standards and are safe when used as instructed.
