More surface. Better browning.

The Enzo 28 cm frying pan is made for cooks who want more room: steaks, pancakes, fish, vegetables, and batch cooking.

Made in Japan from nitrided carbon steel, it combines heat retention, high-heat performance, and a wide cooking surface designed for serious searing.

At 2.5 lb (1,133 g), it is lighter than the average 12" stainless steel pan - which often weighs 3 lb or more - so all that extra cooking surface stays easy to handle.

Expanded Description

Crowding is the enemy of browning. The Enzo 11" gives your food more space to cook properly.

Built from 2.0 mm nitrided carbon steel, it offers even heat distribution and strong heat retention for high-temperature cooking. Its wider base gives you more usable surface area, while the steep 70-degree sides make the pan easier to maneuver.

The body is formed through a deep drawing process - details that are difficult to produce with a standard press machine and that make the pan genuinely useful for searing, batch cooking, and high-heat work.

The nitrided carbon steel treatment improves surface hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion protection. No synthetic coating, made without PFOA, develops seasoning as you cook.

For people who believe food deserves room to become interesting.

Despite the extra surface, it stays easy to handle: at 2.5 lb (1,133 g), it is lighter than the average 12" stainless steel pan, which often weighs 3 lb or more.

Safety & Materials

Material: Nitrided carbon steel (high-quality domestic carbon steel)

Surface treatment: Nitriding - an 8-hour heat treatment process where nitrogen diffuses into the metal surface, improving hardness, wear resistance, and corrosion protection.

The nitride layer remains intact under normal use and does not affect food - safe and non-toxic

Made without PFOA. No chemical coating of any kind.

Handle: Natural beech wood (hand-shaped) + stainless steel flat bar (304 stainless rivets)

Origin: Tsubame-Sanjo, Niigata, Japan - over 400 years of metalworking tradition

Dry immediately.
Oil lightly.
Reheat briefly
Do not use the dishwasher.

The clean-kitchen guide

Good to know

Is there any coating on this pan?

No. No PTFE, PFOA or PFAS, because there is no coating at all. The surface is nitrided, a heat treatment that hardens the steel itself. Nothing is applied on top.

Can a carbon steel pan warp?

Any thin pan can, ours included, if it is blasted from cold on high heat or shocked with cold water while hot. Ours tends to move evenly and settle back toward flat rather than lock a wobble in. Preheat on medium and let it cool before washing, and you will likely never notice it.

Is it oven-safe?

The pan is, but the beech handle is not. We chose wood because it stays cool and comfortable on the stove, so these are made for the stovetop.

Does it rust?

It is rust-resistant, not rustproof. Hand wash, dry, and wipe with a little oil, and it stays happy for years.

Do I need to season it for weeks first?

No. Nitriding gives it a naturally non-stick start from the first cook, and it only improves as your own seasoning develops.

I own a stainless steel, a cast iron and over the years have tossed out a few Teflon and ceramic coating pans. Was determined to find something that is a bit easier to maneuver than my cast iron and actually doesn’t catch food on high heat or require a half inch of oil like the stainless steel..

Was a bit hesitant due to lack of reviews but the price was attractive so decided to give it a shot.

I’ve only had it for about 2 weeks but I already reach for it more than my other pans. The pan is really really pretty and is much more nonstick so you can get a lot more crisp without necessarily using more oil. I can’t say if it will last longer than the ceramic pans but it’s looking hopeful and from what I can tell it lives up to Japanese quality.
