The Best Stainless Steel Pans: $70 VS. $200 - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

Thank you ma’am you’ve answered my questions about stainless pans just getting into better cookware👍!
There’s also all-clad d3, which is only $30 more than the Sadel, and you get all the customers service benefits with all-clad. It’s consistently rated 1st place by America’s Test Kitchen
This was super helpful, thank you so much!
I saw America's Test Kitchen's demo. Their findings were that there is no difference between D5 and D3 from All Clad, except price.
🤔
So it's useless? Well she ain't informed huh
The D5 holds hea better then the D3. This is due to the fact that more dense metal has more thermal mass. As a rule of thumb a heavier pan of the same size is going to be better, due to how it holds heat.
A problem for many newer cooks is there they don't understand how much temperature effects sticking. You can properly heat a pan, put a handful of chicken cutlets in and they still stick.
Why is this? If you are using an inexpensive pan made of a thin steel all of the heat from the pan is being transferred into the chicken, cooling the pan. There are ways to avoid this of course; add your cutlets into the pan one at a time, crank the heat so the heat being added is equal to the heat being removed (hard to accomplish if you're a newer cook, and difficult to do on an electric stove without switching burners), or pick a pan that has a higher thermal mass. This means that a pan can give up more heat and still be at a high enough temperature to cook properly.
The D3 pan is good enough for most things, certainly. However if you just want something that's a bit more consistent, that is why the D5 is there. If you're searing a bunch of chicken before you bake it, you'll be introducing cold product to the pan almost constantly. If you're doing several batches the D3 might cool just a hair too much and you get sticking.
Demeyere has their Atlantis line that takes this concept to the extreme. It's the same thing with how thick the metal is on commercial griddles.
actually they prefer the d3
@@tees926 I'm aware, I just happen to disagree. They don't think the benefit of the set is worth the extra weight and $100. I do.
That Sardel pan will spin in your hands when pouring, especially if your hands are wet or if you are using a towel or hotpad. The All Clad handle stays cool and you rarely need a hotpad, and it never slips because it has a groove along the top of the handle that holds spoons and spatulas, and allows you to place your thumb on top which prevents it from spinning. The All Clad D3, 3 ply is also about the same price as the Sardel with better features and warranty. It's the top rated skillet in numerous reviews, in both pro and amateur kitchens.
@Any One That's a ridiculous statement, All Clad makes a fantastic product. They make a time tested and highly rated product that remains the #1 cookware brand in commercial and professional kitchens around the world. You may prefer Made-In personally, but there are millions of All Clad users out there that wouldn't trade them for anything else. All Clad handles are made to prevent spinning and increase control of a full and hot pan, although some people take issue with the design. The fact that they're still the most popular design after 50 years shows that the design works, even if a very small percentage of people disagree.
so you just compared 5 layer sardel with 3 layer all clad ? for real?
I have the All Clad D3 12" pan. Love it. I expect my great grandchildren will love it as well.
I love mine too but that sardel pan looks interesting.
You bought a BMW when you should’ve bought a Lamborghini. Demeyer Proline/ Atlantis is what’s celebrity chefs use at home. A little more expensive than All Clad but much much better.
But it does have aluminium isn't?
the All Clad D3 12' is $129 and a great pan for the value. On America's test kitchen they rated it highest and said stay away from the bonded base pans and that the 5 ply is a waste of money and offers little additional value
All-clad made in the USA, Pennsylvania to be exact. Quality that will last like cast iron, and supports USA workers. The only way to go in my book.
thank you. very informative
Ordered the Sardel full set during BF and am impressed so far. I just did not like the All-clad handles from their D3 classic line whatsoever.
I tried to really get into cast iron but it's heavy. And I'm old lol!! Stainless steel for me. Besides it's prettier than cast iron.
I have EDS and can't hold heavy pans also. Tried carbon steel which is a bit better, but I will now try a small triply stainless for every day cooking.
Carbon steel if you want cast iron but lightweight
Have a 12 inch copper core all clad pan and it is the most versatile tool in my kitchen
Dalstrong or all clad?
All-Clad has fantastic initial quality. But god forbid you actually need them to honor that “lifetime warranty”. My customer service experience really soured me on the brand.
What do you think about Made by Design pans SS from Target?
Again, my 5 ply is cu, al, and SST - dalstrong 160, I love it and never have to buy another SST pan for my whole life
Worked at crate and barrel and food stuff's in the 1980ies. Purchased all clad use it every day I cook a lot. The pans are just as beautiful as they were when I purchased them.
I do not let anyone touch them. I heat them first then add oil or butter. I NEVER use high heat. Med heat is perfect. I never clean them right away I let them cool. They are all stainless NO nonstick! Because I heat them first nothing ever sticks to them. They make cooking a joy. They were worth every penny I paid. Over 30 years of service and they look brand new.
Calphalon pan not so great. Same age as all clad pans over 30 years old. Paid $75.00 in 1980 something for a frying pan. Warped bottom, dark steel finish almost gone. Terrible!! Never again.
I also have pans from a company called copco, cast iron with enamel finish. French company I think. I love love love them. Fantastic for omelettes. Again heat pan first med heat, eggs slide right off. Love love love. Then there are the Dansk pots and pans they are visible beautiful incredible design, they are my princess pans. They look beautiful on the table but not a work horse like all clad and copco. But they sure look beautiful. They just look good. Best looking stock pot ever. You can make and serve in the same vessel for casual or formal dinning. But not for every day. But they are beautiful!
Thank you, Rose! You just sold me on the All Clad!!
I was looking for the health benefits of stainless steel cookware compared to cookware made of other materials.
Side note I know cook wear has a warranty but I have never used it. Everything is perfect except the calphalon frying pan. How do I use that warranty?
I got my Tramontina tri-ply 12” for 30$. No complaints.
I have noticed that some brands have a more expensive polished stainless steel interior and wondering if it being a polished vs a satin stainless steel interior has any impact good or bad. Can you comment?
Try SolidTeknics Nöni range of stainless steel. Cooks almost like cast iron. Cooks evenly. One piece. No rivets.
If you buy Sardel, it’s going to take atleast a month to get your pan. It ships from Italy. I had a pretty negative experience with the pans I received from them . Both had deep scratches when they arrived. Which was disappointing because I waited so long to get them. I never had that problem with my all clad. That being said; their customer service appears to be pretty good. I loved the feel of the pans but I’ll likely send them back and stick to all clad to avoid the hassle. Unfortunate.
I got my set in about a week or 2 and they had no issues at all and are amazing.
I find it really odd they only ship in the US and there's no European site. I wanted to order from within Europe... Sketchy
"sardel" is either just a brand name for the US market or it's just from China and just a little bit better
In fact, this brand does not exist in Italy or in Europe
My pan has the 5 ply with copper between fir better heat conductivity. It cooks evenly. A little pricey still.
I used to have copper with steel u wait till copper expands after to use. All I can say is u better be fast as when that pops the pan pops with all the shit in it
This video doesn't delve into type of stainless steel grade 304 or 316 etc.
Besides it doesn't discuss about food grade of the cookware which I believe is the most important point of the whole video.
Better than Carbon steel?
Thanks for the review? I never heard of Sardel before? They seem pretty good? Think I'll click on the link? Cheers?
What
Aluminium pans and aluminium in general are toxic when heated.
Questions: Does aluminium layer inside the steel pan release toxicity?? A link to study would be nice(for my own curiosity).
Are there pure stainless steel pans without aluminium? Link to those also would be cool ^_^
What the hell is the difference between three layers of thin aluminum or one layer of thicker aluminum? I have All Clad D3 and except for a copper core vice aluminum and polishing the inside of the pan I wouldn’t change a thing.
Hands down the best cookware line in human existence is Demeyer Proline which makes All Clad D3 look like crap. And 5 ply isn’t better than 3 ply. It’s all about how it’s made and thickness of each layer.
Too heavy, weighs twice what it should.
Demeyere Atlantis isn't on this list so don't waste your time. The All-Clad D-5 warps just like the rest of All-Clad pans.
At 2:02 the MUSIC???!
What about Salad master?
How are there like no views? Isn’t this channel popular?
No, this is another channel.
What about Made in, Mauviel, Demeyere
No Vollrath or Vigor?
Commercial restaurants do not use these outrageously expensive showpiece style cookware. You figure a restaurant has upwards of 30+ pans, not even including pots. They aren't buying pans for $70+. Watch the chef who recommended sardel. He was at home using it on his residential stove top.
Residential cookware is more about looks then functionality. That doesn't diminish the craftsmanship of say allclad, but who truly needs to spend 5000 plus on a cookware set unless you're trying to get the attention from guests who salivate at your ridiculous spending habits.
Calphalon stainless steel cookware seems to lowered the product Availability as Anodized Aluminum has been the Push of Manufacturers for the General Public....Items that were Available 10yrs ago from Calphalon (Stainless)are Vastly better Quality than items Available last 5yrs in my Opinion...All Clad has Always been Expensive be it 3 ply or 5 ply or 5 ply cooper
I’m sure I ca get an all clad for 90 bucks in Marshall’s
Just bought a 10" Caphalon 1390 at Goodwill for $2.88. Haven't tried it yet
20 Years ago - I bought both a 10" and 12" Calphalon Tri-Ply - at a local Flea Market - They were filthy and Paid $5 each. Cleaned up completely with Oven Cleaner down to the shine. A the time - I had 8 of MY children - and over sometime - another 18 foster kids so the pots were used - and they still look new.
The All-Clad are notably awkward to handle. Their "handles" are constructed in such a way that the pans are a bit difficult and sort of a challenge to use.
What's your take on the brand *Steel Heritage* ???
I have used the All-Clad D3 frying pans a few times only to have the stainless still tarnish deep into the steel. It will stick and burn most anything I try to cook. I have used all the precautions you are suppose to use for stainless still from the very beginning. I have sent to in for warranty and it took them over a month and a half to decide there was nothing they could do for me and then sent it back. Don't waste your money, nothing special there. There website says the handles are made in china.
4:07 AHHWHWHWHAHA
Kirkland ! :-)
How do you unwarp a pan?
By buying a new one
@@ashenwinter I have both stainless and non stick....unless searing, I cook on a medium heat and keep the contents moving so it won't stick. Has anyone heard of "seasoning" a stainless pan? like one would do with a cast iron pan....
@@markstrasberg4573 he asked how to unwarp a pan not how to make it nonstick
By not buying a cheap one in the first place LoL
Does food stick to pan when frying?
Mine doesn't because by the time I paid for the pan, I had no money left for any food. Still, I got something shiny that will last, unlike most my cars, jobs, and marriages.
@Any One Checkout the video"which pan is better for you''by Tasty channel.
Mulher gostaria muito de ganhar uma panela dessa.
All-clad all the way
im sorry but $70 isnt really that cheap homie
You get what you pay for. They will last for years. Teflon coated pans are cheaper but don’t last long and the coatings are not healthy as they wear or when high heat is used.
@@dalbriggss i grew up with some scratched ass $12 at most pans so I wouldnt know. We still used those bad boys for a long time tho ngl
@@govaic9183 - SAME here. I had a pan SET for the price of the all clad pan. $100 for 15 pieces. Kept it for 15 years. It recently showed a lot of warping and hot handles so I broke down and bought a set for $350. The difference is clear, but you'll survive with a cheaper set. LOL.
It's all about knowing that quality, cuz you can find them at goodwill often 👍,I can't bring myself to spend too much either, even if I got it.
They sell calphalon and all clad in TJ Maxx and Home goods for 50% of that listed price so yes $30-$40 for one pan is expensive but they last waaaaaay more that the crap at Walmart. For a $30 set.
All clad is high end and very expensive and personally too expensive for my budget. Costco has Calphalon set for $150 on sale by and that’s 18/10. If anyone is a pro chef and has had a lot personal experiences with these materials please weigh in.
I bought $50 stainless steel pan in Japan.
Pan expert
All Clad Copper Core > All Clad D5
Ikea has good quality stainless steel pans for not too much money
Wow I'm first even though the video got uploaded a day back
im getting married next year and Idk I find this so interesting
I wish I had put some of these items on my registry when I got married. Tools, pots and pans from All Clad are expensive and run from around $50 - 1,000's. LOL.
So who are you getting married to?
Amazon Commercial SS pan 👍
*Tramontina * brand is the dupe of All Clad
In a world where my phone has better audio and video quality than this... its hard to take any opinions in it to heart. Also, curious omission of 360 brand cookware.
why did the sub just be gone?? Last vid was 57k views lol
D5 is heavy get d3
Wtf happened in this video? Isn’t insider like really popular?
Thiago Vinicius who knows?
Insider reviews doesn’t have as much reach as the original insider
y’all calling $69.99 a small budget price??
It is cheap. Most of really quality stainless steel pans are 200-1000 dollars
in the market of quality stainless steel pans, yes, not in ur cheap-o dollar store pans world which is clearly not the subject of this video, why do you need this to be spelled out for you, it is truly mind boggling
you never had quality cook ware, have you?!
🤦🏻♂️ worry more bout quality nd how to take are of it.
If it's meant to last for decades, yes
Versa Tile😂😂😂😂
Copy of worth it
Is this reporter calling in on her lunchbreak from her backyard to read someone else's script?
Why does she end each sentence in a question?
So that you become more an engaged listener than just a passive listener? :)
It's a new fad with college chicks. They also croak the ends of sentences. Check it out and see. Ive even heard grown women talk like that. Guess they teach that crap in college .
@@axiomist1076 yeah. The croaking is called a vocal fry. I hear it a lot with the Kardashians.
Wow, all the wrong info in one video. Well done.
4:03 look at this bellend seasoning lul
Just use cast iron. Problem solved.
sorry but I dont trust someone that recommend something 100000%
You rralize you are really broke whenever you get youtubers recomendations for "budget" appliances
That's quite a zit.
I think you could work on your presentation. It sounds like you are unsure of your own findings
All-Clad is a garbage company that makes garbage pans. Everybody makes cladded pans now, and they're much better than those awful All-Clad pans.
Woman am i right boys
women*
Wahman
It's regrettable that Connie cannot speak without ending almost every sentence with an uplifting inflection as if it is question.
Wow. Reviewing cookware without actually cooking anything. How Innovative.
First. Nobody cares about stainless steel pans. True chefs use non-stainless steel pans.
So they use pans that corrode?
This is absolute not true.
glad u stopped at first
Get a life talking bout frist
You mean carbon steel?
Seriously biased views.
