United StatesLatke perfection
This may be a Joan Second Best pan, but she made excellent latkes! Beautiful finish inside and out. Cleans up great. Fries perfect eggs when you’re patient and let the oil/pan heat up properly. I bought the Heather Second Best at a previous sale. I might “need” the Estee pan next! I like that the pans are a little lighter in weight and have the helper handle. Thank you for making a beautiful, useful product.
United StatesGreat pan
I love my pan even it being a 2nd very little issues with it. Modern pan with old school looks and feels
United StatesWOW!!
Just WOW. I gave it a wash, dry, heat, oil, spa day and then the next day, I put down a full extra seasoning. (Not used to this quality and smoothness, so there's a few leopards spots which doesn't bother me at all. Finally, to cook. Started with a simple hash with potatoes, onion, protein, make small wells and drop a few eggs on top. And that was in the top 3 meals this year!! First time to cook in the new pan and nothing stuck? Yes, it is possible and lovely. Now I need to decide what to make in which skillet for All Yules Eve - I'm thinking a pecan chess pie from a receipt that's about 100 years old (my great grandmothers) will be a perfect ending. Maybe ask everyone what their fav holidays food is and make them all? (I got 4, for myself, for Yule this year because I had to throw out all the old, peeling teflon/other names all new skillet for the Holidays.) I also got 2 for my daughter who recently earned her PharmD and has spent the last decade supporting her fam as a souz chef. She may be a doctor now, but she still realizes the health benefits of a good diet. (NO you do not get iron in your food from cast iron. The layer of seasoning is between the "iron" and the food.) I am beyond excited!! I haven't enjoyed cooking like this for a very very long time.
