For those who like cooking with cast iron but love the versatility of a clad stainless steel pan, shop the Viking Blue Carbon Steel 2-piece Fry Pan set. Featuring both a 10-inch and 12-inch size for added versatility, this fry pan set is made of carbon steel, an alloy that is a combination of iron and carbon. The “Blue” in “Blue carbon steel” references a heat treatment process to help resist rust and corrosion, a nuisance that can plague traditional cast iron pans. Stay-cool cast iron handles securely attach to the pans with heavy duty rivets for confidence in construction and a lifetime of use. Though cast iron also excels as maintaining even heating, it can take time to rise to temperature and since iron itself is so brittle, more of the material must be used to make it durable, making traditional cast iron pans larger and heavier. With blue carbon steel, you’ll have a pan that is noticeably lighter without sacrificing performance. And like cast iron, blue carbon steel also heats quickly and evenly, reducing the risk of hot spots from occurring. Blue carbon steel is also prized for achieving high temperatures quickly without fear of damage occurring to the pan itself. Viking Blue Steel is oven safe to 450°F for restaurant quality finishing in the oven. Like cast iron, your blue carbon steel pans will need to be seasoned regularly to maintain its nonstick properties. “Seasoning” refers to the process of coating the base of the pan with a thin layer of oil that imparts a flavorful taste to your foods while also protecting foods from sticking. There are plenty of methods to seasoning your pan, but if this is your first time seasoning the pan, we recommend using very hot water and dish soap to first scrub the pan, then wipe dry and place it on the burner at low heat to finish drying. Add some oil to the pan and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Then, let the pan cool and wipe with paper towels and your pan is ready for use! For future maintenance, simply rinse the pan with water after use and scrub gently with a soft-bristled brush or sponge if necessary (No need for soap!). Season with vegetable oil periodically to maintain its smooth cooking surface and nonstick properties. It is not recommended to put these pans into the dishwasher as it will remove the seasoning, reduction the natural nonstick and making the pan more susceptible to rust. Should you find rust on the pan, like natural cast iron, this can be normal. Just clean the rust off with a scrubby sponge and season the area with vegetable oil.

Great pans. Solid brand. Nice balance in the hand. Decided to do away with non-stick surfaces in the kitchen. Once these are seasoned properly, they slip and slide fine. And you can heat carbon steel to a higher degree for searing. Blackened salmon? Perfect. Cleaning? Not bad.. Jh. Scottsdale, AZ. Thu Apr 30 2026

Safe from metal utensils, Viking hybrid plus 3-ply nonstick fry pans are ideal for searing, sautéing, and browning while still delivering easy cleanup. Viking hybrid plus cookware is coated with an advanced nonstick coating that features long-lasting, superior release. The innovative design of the cooking surface features a raised diamond tread pattern that sits just above the nonstick coating. The raised stainless-steel pattern protects the nonstick coating from scratching, making this pan ideal for use with metal utensils. You never need to worry about what utensil you or anyone in your house uses – the scratch-resistant nonstick is protected. The 3-ply clad construction delivers professional quality heat transfer. The exterior stainless steel layer is induction-capable while the interior layer is 304 non-reactive surgical grade stainless. Sandwiched between these layers is a layer of aluminum that helps to conduct the heat evenly through both the bottom and walls of the pan so more of the pan is working for you. Together, the three layers make this pan more efficient when cooking. The Viking 3-ply hybrid plus line is oven-safe to 500°F. The fry pans are finished with rolled rims for drip-free pouring. The signature Viking ergonomic handles are riveted in place and fully cast stainless for a lifetime of use. Each handle is equipped with a heat break to help them stay cool during use and a finger guide for easy lifting and control. For best results, use a little oil or butter when cooking eggs or other liquid-based foods. Be sure to use low-to-medium and allow the pan to fully come to temperature before adding protein for the best results. Never use aerosol nonstick sprays with these pans as it will reduce the life of the nonstick. The hybrid plus pans are dishwasher safe, but we always recommend hand washing to extend the life of the nonstick surface and the cookware.
