Matfer Bourgeat Black Steel Fry Pan: The Next Big Thing in Cookware

Matfer Bourgeat Black Steel Fry Pan review

Very popular in Europe and Asia, carbon steel cookware is slowly becoming more mainstream in North America. If you didn’t have a chance to cook on frying pans made of this material, imagine a cast-iron pan but light weight. The special coating of the pan is of paramount importance as the pan becomes better after each use, like a common cast-iron pan. After a while, the frying pan gets a patina making it non-stick and suitable for cooking any foods.

Among the companies that manufacture carbon steel fry pan, Matfer Bourgeat makes the best carbon steel (or black steel as they called it) frying pan. The Bourgeat Black Steel frying pan is high performing, durable and versatile. And the major bonus: an affordable price at the Bourgeat frying pan.

You can cook with carbon steel as well as with cast iron and even better.

Pros:

  • Using the Bourgeat pan is game and glee when it’s newly seasoned with a patina, especially when it comes to high heat cooking and searing.
  • Good weight and feel overall with very solid construction.
  • The fry pan is very forgiving. If you accidentally scratched it, just scrub it and season.
  • Fast heating.

  • This is one of the best fry pans for frying eggs.
  • Can be used on any kitchen stove.

Cons:

  • You have to learn the seasoning process. However, it’s quite simple and described in the manual.
  • The carbon steel cleaning method is the same as for cast iron. You’ll have to learn some new cleaning rules if you haven’t used cast iron cookware before.
  • Rare sales. As distinct from consumer brands, restaurant kitchen stores offering carbon steel kitchenware aren’t lavish in sales.
