Because AllClad, in my opinion, had gotten pretty tired. They were making more different types of cookware, but they were not being very innovative and they were not pushing the market to where the market was going.
Cites reputation (against)
Uh, amazing pan. They partnered with Dubet and had a French-made carbon steel pan made. Did a bangup job and they took that wave as carbon steel cast iron was was coming back in.
Cites build quality
I bought one of their original carbon steel pans that I have here.
We can all understand that cookware like AllClad has only just gotten more and more and more expensive.
Cites price (against)
It's a French looking 2 and 12 mm carbon steel pan with a beautiful brass handle.

He showed the guys at Maiden his original and most prized fry pan. So the his prized possession that he owns in his cookware collection is this amazing carbon steel pan that he picked up in the beginning of his career, but he still uses every day.
Cites durability
And they had created this small run of this amazing looking pan.

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.
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.

cuz I'm very confident that Maiden knows how to make a good pan.

It's very close to the same design that Movial has been using for a couple of hundred years and it's wonderfully balanced.

and be as refined as my copper Moel.

I think in my head I'm thinking this pan is going to work a lot like my favorite mineral B duboet pan
Overwhelmingly, people really enjoy the pan and it's doing what they want it to do

This guy is conducting more heat. More heat's being pulled into it. So, it is a little bit of a hotter pan.
I had brought this down just cooking this on a one out of 10. So really, really gentle heat just to get a nice even fry.
Uh, but you know what it's done in such a short time I think is completely adequate.
Uh, but you know what it's done in such a short time I think is completely adequate.
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.
So, you know, the ease of maintenance to what they've done makes it great.
there's now a lot of reviews online from the previous 9-in pan that was launched a a year ago and they've got 4.6 six out of five stars.

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.
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…
