      Thanks, wetracy! One great thing about cooking is it's a great monkey-see/monkey-do activity. If I see someone on TV making a nice dish, I assume if I practice a little I can make it myself. If I see tom Brady throw a TD pass or Beckham score a goal, I pretty much know I'll never do that. But we can all learn to chop, heat, stir!

    I bought my first DeBuyer carbon steel frying pan after watching your videos. Now, I cannot sleep during the nights waiting for the morning to drop there some eggs. Then, I bought my first Turk hand-made pan. Now, way excited to season it as you showed it in your videos. Now, my brother is crazy for the omelettes I make and he thinks to change all the frying pans. You don't know what your videos caused here ...

    Sad news from France. Mauviel to discontinue 2.5mm thick lineup due to copper price surge and other undisclosed reasons! Now Mauviel 2.5mm products are almost nowhere to be found on the internet. I was in the market for a skillet over 12inches and was going for Mauviel 2.5mm one but every website said the same thing. The workshop in France does not make it anymore. So I bought this De Buyer copper 12.5 instead. It is currently on the way to me from Germany now and your detailed review already gets me super excited! thx again for great work!

    Hi Uncle Scott, just wondering if you could make a video comparing this inocuivre to a 2.5mm copper pan (say Falk) to see if the .5mm difference in copper thickness really makes no difference in performance as Mauviel claims? Thank you for the great review as always!

    Hey Scott, great review! Will definitely try some of the dishes in my Inocuivre, also got one for cheap earlier this year. By the way: I also could get an egg to slide in it first try. I wanted to thank you in particular for your videos. Because of them I have been putting more thought into cookware and cooking, switched my induction hob out for a gas hob and couldn't be happier. Its a night and day difference for searing meat and now I can finally properly enjoy my carbon steel pan. Keep up the cool reviews and videos, wishing you all the best! Greetings from Germany

    I loved this review so much that it inspired me to rush out and buy the exact same pan off of Amazon. I found a deal on a returned one that I could kinda afford. "Used -like new" it was described as. It arrived in about 3 days in the original packaging which was a little damaged. The pan looked pretty good with only a few minor scratches on the bottom. Even with the scratches the pan is SOO nice looking I hardly dare use it. It is by far the prettiest pan I own. Thanks for the great review.

      Thanks, Gilbert! There are great pans in all different market segments. I have some stainless steels that I have been using for almost 20 years now that do a fantastic job. Also have an All-Clad copper core that is almost a blend. I think with copper you get a little more even and quicker heating, and it looks really nice just sitting there on the stovetop, but I have had a lot of luck with my stainless as well. Just different pans in different segments.

  • @UnitedStates.
    @UnitedStates. 4 года назад +1

    Hey Uncle Scott so the carbon series is better since you don’t have to be as careful, right? I am assuming this new line 1) you put it in high heat and you ruin it and 2) eventually the stainless part will wear down and you will have to re-apply the 10% layer?

    • @UncleScottsKitchen
      @UncleScottsKitchen  4 года назад

      Hi States. Different pans are better than others depending on the task. For a high heat sear, carbon steel or cast iron are fantastic but you wouldn't want to do that in copper. For simmering an acidic sauce (like with tomatoes), the stainless-lined copper is great but you wouldn't do that in cast iron or carbon steel. I think the tin-lined copper can actualyl get ruined, but it would be much harder to ruin the stainless lined. The tin lining will eventually need to be replaced, but I can't imagine stainless ever needing to be replaced.

    • @UncleScottsKitchen
      @UncleScottsKitchen  4 года назад

      Thanks, Genius! There are great pans that do well in lots of different categories. I have a tri-ply that works well, I have a copper core that works well, and these 90/10 coppers work well. I think with the regular tri-ply you get good performance and also less maintenance. With the copper, I think you get about the best heat distribution possible and quicker heating times and as a bonus they look really nice. No matter what category of pan you can find something that works well though.

    You are not wrong about lean pork. Due to the lies that are pushed on us by the so called "experts" regarding fat, there has been an incredible push to raise lean pork. When we slaughter our pigs, there is non stop line of friends and family that would like some of our pork. Nice fat back on the hams and inch thick fat on the back and ribs.
    I really enjoy your channel and have learned a great deal about high carbon steel pans. I have two of your favorite de Buyer nine inch egg pans. When I do my part they are incredible!

      Thank you very much, Ranger! The cost of these pans is either outrageous or a bargain, depending on how you look at it. Like you said about the nonsticks... this pan might cost the same as five non-sticks, but if it lasts 20 years and you go through a nonstick every two years, it's actually cheaper over the long run. At least that's what I tell my wife when I buy one.

    Great to see the 2.0mm thickness performed so well in your video, I'm curious about Mauviel's thinner line (1.5mm) copper pans, if they can deliver most of the performance that the 2.00mm thick ones do I will be very interested getting one, those thinner pans cost substantially less and I personally prefer lighter weight too. Anyway thank you for the great review.

      @federicomarzocchi7169 11 месяцев назад +1

      hi^^
      i have some 2mm debuyer and also a 1.5mm mauviel. what i noticed is that there are no critical differences in performance between 2.5mm and 2 mm copper pans (probably because you dont use high heat with a copper pan so the mass variation is not that important)
      between the 2mm and the 1.5mm, on the other hand, you can notice that the heat transfer is not that efficient and you may have some hot spot in the pan. the 1.5 mm (in my opinion) is still perfect for the home use, because the burners are less powerful in comparison to a commercial one.

    I made some sausage gravy the other day for the first time in years and noticed the same thing; hardly any grease got rendered (I used regular Jimmy Dean bulk sausage). It didn't matter though; it still worked fine without adding any extra fat. I don't remove the cooked sausage from the pan when adding the flour; you're removing all of the grease that's coating the bits of sausage when you do that, which probably amounts to at least a tablespoon. I just mix the flour in with the cooked sausage and stir it all around over medium-low for about 2 minutes and then add the milk and proceed as normal. If I were to add extra fat, it wouldn't be butter though. I'd add bacon grease, since it's the same thing as sausage grease (rendered pork fat). In fact, I may try that next time even though I don't need to, just to see what it does for the flavor.
    When I make "egg gravy", which is the same thing as sausage gravy, and is also served over biscuits (or toast), except it has chopped or sliced hard-boiled eggs in it instead of sausage, I do use butter for the roux.
