And we did grilled cheese and spelt like cheese into the pans and, you know, sort of cooked on um cheddar and griier cheese just popped right off the pan, no problem.
So that's our impression of the overall choice of lineups in the Duboet carbon steel pans. They all cook absolutely beautifully.

So, I think it look great. Made in pan here. Little bit residue. Really nothing much. And residue, nothing on there.
It's got that that micro texture on it, which is a a purpose thing done by Maiden. They do several different finishings to the pan to give it a texture and then they season that to grab hold of that texture to make sure that it works incredibly well and that it stands up really well.
So, the seasoning that I've done from cooking has worked out great with a simple egg test.
But the heat is down on the maiden pan. But I would say that that pan is cooking a nice delicate crepe beautifully.
I am finding that using this seasoning that they've done and the the finish has worked out really really nicely. It's really even and it works beautifully. So I have no problem with how that pan has finished up. Like it's it's seasoning beautifully.

I love what they've done with this pan. They've replicated an old pan and what is old is new. And to me, that is a beautiful thing in cookware.
So, this is, you know, a a celebration of the history of cookware that Maiden has done. And I think that is a absolutely tremendous thing.
So, I'm a fan. I think what they've done is amazing.

9-in beautiful pan and it was sold out.
superficially, I'm in love with this pan. Like the first time I saw that amazing Ferrari in Ferris Beer's Day Off car that I could not get out of my head. This pan is the same to me.
this pan is in brilliant, brilliant shape. It's hardly any carbon buildup. It's just such a beautiful, beautiful pan.
Like, you know, this guy is wonderfully uniform in its in its color, and that's already started that way. So, it looks beautiful to start with.
here are some steaks that I cooked in it after about two months of use to be fair the pan was only two months old but it has been through several rounds of seasoning and regular cooking and yet it was still sticking

I can see some of the seasoning on the maiden pan dissolving let's wash it and inspect the damage well that's not good

here's some smashed Burgers see how unevenly they are Browning yes I tried to heat up the panel longer to get it to even out but even without the oil some parts of the pan got hot so quickly that they started to smoke this uneven Browning is easy to explain the pan is just too thin
but what I can't easily explain is how sticky the span is and how badly it holds seasoning
I don't know how to explain it but here is my guess after I wash the pan I dry it and set it over the burner to dry completely then I rub it with a tiny bit of oil and wait for it to harden over moderate heat for 10 to 15 minutes I have a feeling that some parts of the pan get overheated by the time all the oil pollen…

it wasn't great out of the box. It's a seasoned pan, but it's not ready to cook. It needs some seasoning. It needs like proper cooking seasoning, not just the protectant layer that's on it.

I think that's working well and you know the pan works and feels well like it's a it's a nice balance to the pan. Sits on the stove top really nicely.

the texture of the pan, it comes like the Lodge carbon steel. comes with this kind of like almost like a candy coating shell on it like a a rough texture all around it which isn't as appealing as the softness the rawness of when you open up a dubet pan or a mattifer pan or a lot of the brands you know that that you…

And in a tactile sense, I'm not excited about that part of it.

One thing that I found is that the brass handle heats up. Some people found it got really hot.

And that handle, it's starting to get warm. Like it's a bit too hot right in the middle. I'm grabbing the center.
It's got some, you know, negatives to it like the handle

This is bigger than I kind of want. I would have loved to have had the nine. I just like that size for that type of pan, but the 11 is going to be perfect for my family of four.

I talked about the the textured surface. I I didn't really actually notice it that much. I thought I would more, but uh you know, it's a nice uniform color. I'm not negative against it, I think, as I was now using it and seeing it sitting on the stove top.

but yeah, like comparatively that one's actually cold, but yeah, it's a it's a bit warm. It's warmer than the than the mineral B, but that's not a problem. I don't have any worry about that right now.
