Lighter, easier and stronger—there’s a reason carbon steel is the choice of professional kitchens. Pre-seasoned to get you started, this Obsidian carbon steel 12" frypan develops a naturally non-stick layer with use that’s ideal for frying delicate fish, crafting an omelet, or getting a perfect sear on pork chops. The more you use the pan, the better the non-stick patina layer will be. Precision engineered for powerful performance anywhere you need it, this pan travels effortlessly from stovetop to grill. This pan also comes with a removable silicone sleeve to keep cooking comfortably. Oven safe up to 600˚F/315˚C. Hand washes only.
My husband loves to cook with really high heat (which would ruin my 3-ply sautee pans). These OXO Obsidian pans are perfect for high-heat cooking! I'm a reader, so I knew before I used the pan that there are certain restrictions (eg, hand wash only) to keep the pan functioning perfectly. And it is SO MUCH EASIER to use and maintain than my cast iron skillet. I'm grateful to Oxo (great brand) and Perigold (great source) for this pan.. Rachel. FL. Fri Mar 07 2025
