How to Choose Frying Pans And Sautés

Start with material and your go-to cooking method. Carbon Nonstick™ frying pans use nitrided carbon steel plus an aluminum core, they are coating-free, induction compatible, and heat safe up to 1100ºF. Stainless steel frying pans use 5-ply stainless steel plus aluminum, and they are dishwasher safe and oven safe up to 800°F for searing and stovetop-to-oven cooking. If you want to browse by material first, use the Carbon Nonstick collection or the Stainless Steel collection.

Then pick the pan shape that matches what you cook. Deeper Carbon Nonstick™ pans trade cooking surface width for higher side walls, which helps when you are tossing food, working with liquids, or minimizing splatter. Standard Carbon Nonstick frying pans keep a wider cooking surface (for example, the 8 in standard pan lists a 7 in cooking surface diameter), which can be useful for spreading food out for contact and browning.

Decide whether you want a tempered glass lid included. Only SKUs labeled “+ Glass Lid” include the tempered glass lid for frying pans, and those glass lids are oven safe up to 450°F and dishwasher safe. Stainless steel sauté and all-purpose pans in this collection may include their own lids, so “+ Glass Lid” is specifically about the tempered glass-lid frying pan sets.

Finally, match care to your routine. Carbon Nonstick and pre-seasoned carbon steel frying pans are hand wash only, and Misen recommends preheating 1 to 2 minutes and cooking with a small amount of oil. Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel is also oven safe up to 500°F, which can matter if you finish steaks or frittatas in the oven. For conditioning steps and long-term maintenance, follow the Carbon Nonstick Care guide.

Frequently Asked Questions About Frying Pans And Sautés

What is the difference between Deeper and standard Carbon Nonstick pans?

8" Deeper Carbon Nonstick™ Frying Pan styles have higher side walls than standard Carbon Nonstick frying pans, which helps when you cook with liquids or want more splatter control. A standard option like the 8" Carbon Nonstick™ Frying Pan prioritizes a wider cooking surface for spreading food out.

Do all frying pans in this collection include a glass lid?

No. Only items labeled “+ Glass Lid” include a tempered glass lid, such as the 8" Carbon Nonstick™ Frying Pan + Glass Lid and the 10" Deeper Carbon Nonstick™ Frying Pan + Glass Lid. Pan-only options are sold without the tempered glass lid, and some sauté-style pans may include their own lids.

Which pans are dishwasher safe, and which are hand wash only?

8" Stainless Steel Frying Pan and other stainless steel frying pans are dishwasher safe. Carbon Nonstick frying pans like the 8" Carbon Nonstick™ Frying Pan are hand wash only, and pre-seasoned carbon steel pans like the 8" Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel Frying Pan are also hand wash only.

What are the oven-safe temperatures for these pans and their lids?

Carbon Nonstick™ frying pans are heat safe up to 1100ºF, while stainless steel frying pans are oven safe up to 800°F. Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel frying pans are oven safe up to 500°F. The tempered glass lids included with “+ Glass Lid” frying pan sets are oven safe up to 450°F.

How should I preheat each pan to reduce sticking?

For stainless steel, Misen recommends preheating an empty pan like the 8" Stainless Steel Frying Pan on medium-high for 3 to 4 minutes, until a splash of water forms round balls, then adding oil or butter. For Carbon Nonstick and pre-seasoned carbon steel, preheat 1 to 2 minutes and cook with a small amount of oil, like on the 8" Carbon Nonstick™ Frying Pan.
