This is far from a conventional frying pan. The low, slanted sides give plenty of space to turn your food, which is a great advantage for fish and other delicate ingredients in particular. Furthermore, the flared sides help food slide out easily from the pan, and also help produce a nice sear since the pan quickly leads away steam, and the pan stays dry. The extra-long handle is well balanced, so it makes it easy to keep the pan in motion while stirring, for instance to get the eggs to curdle, and the pan has a nice weight for tapping to help get the omelette out. The pan is ovensafe up to 260°C. INDUCTION COMPATIBLE
