Wahei Freiz Enzo Frying Pan

Made by expert metal craftsmen in Tsubame, Japan, Wahei Freiz’s Enzo Frying Pan is the small and medium pan built for frying. It’s made from carbon steel, a lighter weight professional-grade iron durability of cast iron without all the heft, with a wide, thick bottom that heats evenly and deeply sloped sides that are perfect for saucework. The pan won’t cool down if you add more ingredients to it, a benefit of Wahei Freiz’s proprietary carbon steel, and the custom shape has to be finished either by hand or lathe, since it’s optimized for maximum surface area, efficient cooking and hard sears.

This lightweight pan is easy to maneuver and lift; we could toss and flip its contents with ease during testing. It’s fabulous for steaks, chicken thighs, fillets of fish, eggs and even stir-fries, thanks to the higher sides. The pan works on gas stoves as well as induction stoves. Like other premium carbon steel pans, the pan will get even better with time. Very limited availability in the United States.
