Carbon Steel Iron's benefits
Lightweight
One of the main drawbacks of cast iron is its weight. The carbon steel pan has many of the same benefits as cast iron but is much lighter making it easier to maneuver while cooking. Summit has found the best thickness of iron for the perfect balance between lightweight and heat conductivity to retain the best attributes of cast iron without the weight.
Naturally Nonstick
Carbon steel pots and pans are nonstick without the use of synthetic chemical-treated surfaces. Create a natural nonstick barrier by seasoning the pan with oil.
Low Maintenance
Once a carbon steel pan is properly seasoned, it is easy to maintain the naturally nonstick surface. After each use, simply wipe the surface clean and reapply a thin layer of oil before storage. For tough jobs, use a tawashi scrubber to remove any remaining food particles.
Durable
Like cast iron cookware, carbon steel is meant to last. Carbon steel cookware gets better with age and use. Regular usage of carbon steel ensures the building up of the nonstick surface.
