They’ve taken the place of nonstick pans in her kitchen, and she even prefers them to her cast-iron skillets most of the time. Wirecutter editor Gabriella Gershenson has been using the Made In 10-Inch carbon-steel skillet and the Mauviel 3651.28 M'Steel 11-Inch frying pan regularly in her home since 2019. As the flour browned, it gave us an even clearer picture of hot spots and allowed us to judge how quickly each pan heated up.

To test how well induction-friendly pans distributed heat, we dusted the encapsulated-bottomed pans with a light coating of flour and heated them over medium heat on a portable induction burner. The browning pattern on the crepes themselves also showed us how well each pan distributed heat across the cooking surface. Making tall stacks of crepes helped us judge how comfortable and maneuverable each pan felt in the hand while we swirled the batter across the surface. Flipping fried eggs over easy is a delicate task, and we looked for pans with flared sides that made this simple to do without the help of a spatula. French omelets are traditionally fluffy and colorless, so we used them to test how gently the skillets cooked eggs without browning and how quickly they released. True to the company’s claim, it performed identically.įor previous updates, from 2017 to 2021, we pared down our testing to cooking French omelets, fried eggs over easy, and crepes. We tested the version from Walmart, which has two rivets instead of three, and a handle that’s more maroon than red. A Tramontina representative told us these variants are the same pan, aside from aesthetic differences (such as the color of the handle and the number of rivets). Note that you can find variants of the 10-inch Tramontina pan sold specifically by retailers like Sam’s Club and Walmart. If you have an induction cooktop, however, go with one of our other picks, because this Tramontina pan isn’t induction-compatible. With proper care, the Tramontina pan’s nonstick coating should stay slick and scratch-free for at least four years (based on our experience so far). This lightweight pan is easy to maneuver, and we appreciate its comfortable-to-hold handle, with a removable silicone sheath for heat protection. The flared edge let us easily scrape the corners with a spatula, flip fried eggs, and slide omelets onto a plate.

In our tests, the Tramontina Professional 10-Inch Restaurant Fry Pan distributed heat more evenly than other nonstick pans, thanks to its thick, cast-aluminum construction.
