The Hammered Titanium Pan

I have been using this titanium pan for a couple of weeks and find it is a nice balance between my All Clad SS D3 and non-stick skillets. The weight is slightly heavier but comparable in performance and much less than carbon steel or cast iron. The non-stick performance compares to the PTFE coated skillet while the pan gives a good sear on steaks comparable to the D3. The pan heats up slowly but retains heat and will get very hot. They suggest to use a lower heat setting and I have been using a gas heat 4 setting with success. I have seared steak and chicken and cooked bacon, eggs and pancakes with ease on the pan. Last night I sautéed green beans with red onion and chili flakes and everything cooked evenly with just a little oil. The pan is very stable with no sign of doming which makes it good for frying and sautéing. As you can see from the photo there are no hot spots, the beans are evenly cooked all over the pan, and it cleaned up easily under running water with a little soap. I am pleased with the performance of the pan and find it a good alternative to PTFE coated cookware.

Of 41 pans I owned whether non-stick, ceramic, stone, or steel, none can compare to this. After 25 uses in a variety of foods, sugars, heavy, cheeses, rice burnt on, soy sauce, etc. Chinese to American to European to Hawaiian to Japanese the pan was easy to clean, the inner titanium surface did not scratch, only the bottom of the pain scratched on the gas stove. It’s not brown, yellow, and not covered with grease. Dawn and a sponge did the work. I cannot believe it. There is no way. All the other pans failed at 10 uses with stains, cooked on stains, etc. no way. But the pictures here shows the proof. Weight is heavy but not a cast iron pan, handles well, it is better than the 41 pans I owned so not compatible to other pans, it’s better. Ease of use, yes it’s a pan.

First use, breakfast. This is a remarkable pan. Heats quickly and evenly. I highly recommend starting on the lowest heat setting, letting the pan reach temperature. I prepared frozen hash browns and sausage links for one. I did use Avocado oil (highly recommend). And clean up was quite easy, once the pan cooled. I am looking forward to using this pan for other dishes. The pan I purchased was without the glass lid (cover). I do wish I would have purchased with cover. If I am aloud to update my review, I will as I continue using this pan with other dishes.

The Bottom Line: An absolute heavyweight champion of a frying pan that delivers spectacular, even heat distribution and genuine chemical-free nonstick performance when handled with proper culinary technique. What Works Well: Nuclear-Grade Heat Resistance: This thing is oven-safe up to a staggering 1000°F. You can transition it straight from a fierce stovetop sear right into a screaming hot broiler without worrying about warping the frame into a metal taco. The "No-Chemicals" Flex: It completely skips the traditional, sketchy nonstick coatings that flake off into your food over time. It is entirely free of PFOA, PFAS, and PTFE. Magnetic Compatibility: It boasts high magnetic conductivity, meaning it grabs onto induction cooktops immediately and heats up with blistering efficiency. Handles Acid Like a Champ: Because titanium is completely non-reactive, you can simmer heavy tomato sauces or lemon reductions all day without leaching a bizarre, metallic aftertaste into your dinner. What to Keep in Mind: Respect the Pre-Heat: This is a patented uncoated surface, not a slippery plastic playground. If you drop an egg into a bone-dry, cold pan, it will bond like industrial superglue. If you pre-heat the pan properly and use a proper splash of cooking oil or butter, food slides off like a dream. Just the right size for most of your cooking big enough to fit a large meal but not so big that maneuvering it is difficult. The handle is really comfortable and fits in your hand like was made for it. Cleaning is great just make sure you pre-soak it if there’s stuff baked on and it comes right off-you can use steel wool if you want, but I’ve been using Barkeeps Friend with great success.

Love this!!

I’m really happy with this 12” The hammered titanium construction feels sturdy and well-made, and the pan heats evenly for cooking everything from eggs and vegetables to meat and other dishes. I especially like that it is uncoated and free from PFOA, PFAS, and PTFE. It works well on my induction cooktop and is also oven-safe, which makes it very versatile. The large size is perfect for family meals, and cleanup has been easy. Overall, a solid, durable, and versatile pan that I would recommend for everyday cooking.

I was skeptical at first but after using it I fell in love. Not heavy. I preheated with grapeseed oil first. Only needed medium low heat to cook. I left it sitting on the stove for a few days and then washed it. Food came right off, didn't even need soap or presoak. Just warm water. Follow the instructions for care and use and it will go great.

I’ve ordered a number of 12-inch frying pans over the years, and this one seems to be the best one yet. It feels solid and durable, and I especially like that it’s all metal without a coating that can wear down or come off over time. So far, the cooking performance has been excellent. I used only a minimal amount of oil, and the food released easily from the pan. Very impressed with the quality and performance
