Product Description

The 12 inch Excalibur Non-Stick Stir-Fry Pan is a heavy weight at 2mm thickness of carbon steel. It is made for use on gas or electric burners and the pan's heavy weight carbon steel body is designed for rapid, even heating and cooling ¿ a must for any stir-fry. Its generous size will enable you to make delicious Asian meals for your entire family. This pan is perfect for creating such authentic Asian-style recipes as curried shrimp with lemon rice and Szechwan beef stir-fry. This pan features a Stay-cool Bakelite® handle and the flat bottom sits securely on stove tops. Excalibur® is a premium non-stick coating that is far superior to most nonsticks in the market. Its strength and long lasting durability is so important for the high - heat demands of stir fry cooking. The pan is first prepared by blasting it with an abrasive material to create a roughened surface. Then, white-hot molten stainless steel is applied to the surface and, when cooled, becomes welded to the pan. The permanent peaks and valleys that are formed provide a strong, tough base for two coats of a high-grade nonstick finish.

Designed by Helen Chen, daughter of renowned Chinese food pioneer Joyce Chen, the Asian Kitchen Excalibur line of cookware helps bring Asian cooking into the Western home. Crafted from durable carbon steel with a 2 mm thickness, the cookware combines rugged construction with convenient non-stick coating, so food cooks traditionally but cleans up quickly. Named for their premium 2-layer non-stick coating, Excalibur pans feature secure riveted handles made of stay-cool Bakelite. Perfect for the rapid heating conditions of searing and stir-frying, they are safe for use on gas, electric, and induction stovetops.
This Excalibur stir-fry pan is a substantial cooking tool, suited to rapid cooking of meats, seafoods, and veggies. It features a flat bottom, steep sides, and a handle ring for hanging. Measuring 12 inches in diameter, it should be washed by hand for best results. A 14-inch version is also available. --Emily Bedard

"Helen Chen's stir fry" 2010-07-25
By Sandra D King
I bought this pan for my daughter's birthday and she loves it. She and her family love oriental food and she wanted to be able to make it at home instead of buying it out all the time. She has made stir fry and several other dishes with this pan. She was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the pan--it is great.

By David Dilworth (Jamesport, NY United States)
Pretty good nice and heavy, nice handle, nonstick coating has that grainy substantial feel not super flat on my glass cooktop, if the nonstick wears off I will sand off the nonstick coating and have a nice carbon steel wok

good construction workmenship. But non-sticky coating wear off quickly. I now simply have buffed off the coating and use it as a seasoned corbon-steel wok.
