This video is by far and away the most concise, informative video I have watched. This gentleman provides an elegant, meaning sleek, informative explanation, the whys, and what-for. Next up and this is why I am so impressed this cook/chef is the first person that has addressed the fact that not all of us have a gas range. Thank you. Next on the docket, he provides a thorough chart of the oils and their smoke points. I love the simile he uses for opening the pores. A thousand thank you's. Sincerely, Ann Korach

Best explained content for seasoning a carbon steel pan/wok. Available. Perfect amount of content well delivered. Goes over over the do’s and dont’s and explains polymerization process in simple layman’s terms. His pan sample is what perfect season layering should look like. Forget all those other videos and just take under 6.5 minutes to watch this one. He’s the real deal. Thank u kindly

5:26 i honestly spent 4-5 hours just watching videos about how to season a carbon steel pan and when i seasoned mine i had my oven temp just a little too low and it came off way too easily.

I don’t think any of the videos i watched gave this info or they weren’t clear enough about it as you were.

Thanks for this i got mine seasoned properly❤

Just to clarify, when you repeat the process, I do not mean wash with soap and water each time. Try to avoid soap if you can.

I bought a 12" and 8" stainless Made-In pans as well as a saucier. This is my first purchase other than "department store" quality. They are affordable and well designed/made. They are great pans.

I spent last summer deciding stainless, carbon steel and non stick. After my husband nearly ruined my new All Clad and kept unseasoning my cast iron, I settled for a non stick workhorse as much as I hate non stick lol. Son proceeded to cook in non stick with a fork.

I mean the thumbnail alone warrants a like. Great video, I’ll be investing in some carbon steel pans

I love my Matfer and my Ballarini pans. Both are made in France or Italy. They cook so well, and are so easy to clean it makes you want to cook more often.

“Get the cleansing liquid inside the pores, wash them out, face is clean.” Best beauty YouTube video! 😆 Just teasing... !! I pretty much only cook with cast iron (it’s so cheap!) but I’m intrigued by carbon steel bc it’s so much lighter and I have a bad shoulder.

Thank you! You are the best! Very easy to understand speach and you even throw in the reasoning in between. Wish me the luck, the very first time carbon steel wok owner!

I love your show, your pasta recipes are very precise, your tips always to the point, I love your love for food and people , greetings from Greece

Dude, you continue to be my top educational resource for the kitchen! Thank you!

Spot on! I use my carbon steel pans for eggs and have zero stickage problems so I don't have to but non-stick, cancer inducing disposable pans. The only thing I use stainless pans for are acidic dishes (like tomato sauces) if I need good evaporation.

[tiffanygrandjean]

I'm so thankful for your show! You have taught me how to make authentic pasta dishes like my grandmother used to make! Since I started watching your show, I've made a few of them so far. I have to say I'm pretty impressed 😊 Keep doing what you're doing!

Probably the best seasoning guide out there

[Poraqui]

The best seasoning video with the best end result. Just look at that pan! 😁

[sanathsambamoorthi]

Thank you so much! I love all the simple how tos you have on the channel and how detailed you are with your explanations, even for the simple stuff. You make cooking so much more approachable for people who don't have a lot of experience in the kitchen.

I was literally doing this yesterday with the exact same pan. I did 3 seasonings using the oven method. This is my first carbon steel so hopefully it turns out
