Like the best antique skillets, the Finex No.12 has a polished ultra-smooth cook surface that minimizes sticking and cleaning. Unlike your grandparents’ skillet, its distinctive geometric shape is pouring friendly. That means less spills and drips, which makes for less clean up. The ergonomic stainless steel spring handle cools down quickly, so no need for bulky oven mitts or floppy grabbers while you’re cooking. We’ve added a ribbed helper handle on the front lip that makes it easy to lift the pan and transfer it from stovetop to table, and a brass cap that makes it easy to hang the pan when your done. Steam equals flavor so if you’re serious about capturing the best tastes your food has to offer, it’s worth investing in a matching 12” seasoned cast iron lid. You’ll find when you have a lid it comes into play frequently – especially when you want to slowly simmer a sauce or trap heat for poaching eggs or a salmon fillet. They’ve designed their lids with integrated self-basting rings that create ideal moisture control, helping keep the consistency of what’s being cooked just right. A lid also allows you to lower the heat of your burners while maintaining the desired temperature and is handy for avoiding potential splatters. Their oven safe lids are topped with a hand polished American-made solid brass knob that makes them easy to lift and set down. • 12” Geometric “Multi-Pour” Design and Easy Release Polished Cook Surface • Handmade in the United States and Pre-Seasoned with Natural Flax Seed Oil • Quick Cooling Polished Stainless Steel Spring Handle • Safe for All Cook Tops, Ovens and Grills • 12” Self-Basting Lid
