inb4 'cast iron skillet'
I've always had bad luck with fresh cast iron, so I'm not interested in that. Just looking for a good nonstick pan. I was thinking about the ones with the hexagon stuff on it, but I just looked it up and its $180, so thats gonna have to wait.
Who got the recs?
I've got a couple Matfer Bourgeat ones, which are way marked up online. I didn't see the America's Test Kitchen review beforehand but followed their seasoning guide (potato skins + salt to remove the waxy layer that came from the factory, oiled and then blasted those brothers in the oven). Seasoning has lasted over a year, still more nonstick than any nonstick I'd used at the one year mark.
Will look into the brand, thanks!
