American Road Trip: 12 tuuman maustettu valurautapaistinpannu, New Hampshire

The etching on the handle is such a nice touch—it gives the pan a real collectible feel without being gimmicky. Seasoned it lightly and cooked a batch of cornbread tonight, and the surface is already slick as glass. This one's a keeper for sure.

The New Hampshire etching on the handle is such a nice touch—it’s a real conversation piece when I’m cooking for guests. Seasoned it once before my first use and it’s been perfectly non-stick for eggs ever since, with a great even heat distribution that crisps up cornbread beautifully.

The state outline on the cooking surface is such a fun touch, and the pan heats evenly enough that I’ve already made cornbread and seared steaks in it without a single hotspot. It’s well-seasoned right out of the box, so cleanup has been a breeze.
