Questions?

Carbon Nonstick™ is a carbon steel pan with an aluminum core. It’s 3-ply, meaning it has three layers. The inner layer is the aluminum core, which helps the pan heat and cool more quickly than other carbon steel pans. The top and bottom layers are nitrided carbon steel.

Nitrided carbon steel is essentially carbon steel that has been super-heated in a nitrogen-rich oven, which creates an extremely durable, corrosion-resistant, and virtually nonstick surface without the need for coatings.

Nitriding is extremely safe and widely used in industries beyond cookware, including aerospace, automotive, surgical, and industrial machinery.

Carbon steel (Carbon Nonstick's™ primary material) relies on something called “seasoning” to achieve its non-stickiness. Unlike ceramic (aka Silicon dioxide) and nonstick (Teflon) which both require a special coating, seasoning is completely natural and builds up more and more over time.

This process of seasoning is called polymerization: when any type of fat is heated in the pan, it chemically bonds with the metal to create a durable surface that prevents rust and improves nonstick properties. The more you cook, the more the seasoning builds up. Over time the pan will become even more nonstick.

Our pan takes things a step further: through a process called "nitriding," Carbon Nonstick™ is fully nonstick right out of the box, and even moreso over time. Nitriding is a process by which a metal surface is super-heated in a nitrogen-rich environment, which creates an extremely durable, corrosion-resistant, and virtually nonstick surface without the need for coatings.

Nitriding is extremely safe and widely used in industries beyond cookware, including aerospace, automotive, surgical, and industrial machinery.

No, Carbon Nonstick™ is free of PFAS, PTFE, and PFOA.

Traditional nonstick pans (Teflon) and ceramic are both made with coatings that wear off over time, making the pan useless. Carbon Nonstick™ does not contain any chemical coating; instead, it self-seasons over time as you cook with it, creating a lasting, nonstick surface.

This process of self-seasoning is called polymerization: when any type of fat is heated in the pan, it chemically bonds with the metal to create a durable coating that prevents rust and improves nonstick properties.

This process happens naturally as you cook. The more you use the pan, the more layers of seasoning build up, and the more nonstick the pan becomes.

Carbon Nonstick™ takes it a step further: through a process called nitriding, this pan is made even more nonstick out of the box and over time. Nitriding is a process by which a metal surface is super-heated in a nitrogen-rich environment, which creates an extremely durable, corrosion-resistant, and virtually nonstick surface without the need for coatings.

Nitriding is extremely safe and widely used in industries beyond cookware, including aerospace, automotive, surgical, and industrial machinery.

TL;DR: At first, no. But soon, yes.

The longer answer: Traditional nonstick (Teflon) and ceramic are both made with chemical coatings that create a nonstick effect on your pans. Carbon Nonstick™ does not contain any chemical coating, therefore it may not be quite as nonstick right out of the box. However, while ceramic and other nonstick pans lose their nonstick coating as you use them, Carbon Nonstick™ will actually become more nonstick with use as cooking oils build up on the pan’s surface (this is called seasoning, and Carbon Nonstick™ seasons itself naturally as you use it). So while your other nonstick pans will be useless in a matter of years, your Carbon Nonstick™ has the potential to last forever.

Absolutely, bring on the lemons! Whereas most carbon steel pans will lose their seasoning and rust if they're exposed to acid, Carbon Nonstick™️ can stand up to acid without a problem. (We find it especially useful for finishing our pasta in tomato sauce.)

That said, our factory recommends waiting about 30 days before you go heavy on the acid, so that the pan has a little time to build up its seasoning.

No. Unlike traditional carbon steel cookware, you don’t need to season your Carbon Nonstick™️ pan. By simply cooking with it, you'll be seasoning it; the more you use it, the more seasoned it becomes.

That said, we like to apply a thin layer of cooking oil to the pan’s surface after cooking, and rub it in with a towel. This step speeds up the seasoning process, but it is completely optional.

Carbon Nonstick™️ is not pre-seasoned. This sets it apart from our Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel, which is pre-baked with neutral oil to jumpstart the seasoning process. Carbon Nonstick™️, on the other hand, does not need to be pre-seasoned because it's been nitrided, which does the same job. Instead, the pan is simply wiped down with a thin layer of neutral corn oil after nitriding. This moisturizes the pan and makes it nice and slippery right out of the box.

We still love and use our Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel pans. But there are some key differences between that pan and Carbon Nonstick™️.

First, Carbon Nonstick™️ is lighter: only 2.48 pounds, compared to 3.2 pounds. It's an easier pan to hold and use on a daily basis.

Second, Carbon Nonstick™️ doesn’t require seasoning. Our original Carbon Steel needs to be regularly seasoned as you use it, that seasoning can come off depending on what you cook, and sometimes the pan needs to be re-seasoned from scratch. That won’t happen with Carbon Nonstick™️ because it’s nitrided, aka heated in a super-hot, nitrogen-rich oven to make it extra-hard, extra-smooth, and extra-durable.

Third, Carbon Nonstick™️ has an aluminum core, while our Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel pan does not. The aluminum core makes the pan lighter and helps it heat and cool faster. This responsiveness to temperature changes makes your cooking more efficient and precise, whereas our Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel has slightly better heat retention for tasks like heavy-duty searing.

Fourth, Carbon Nonstick™️ is resistant to rust. Our other carbon steel pan isn’t nitrided, so it will rust if you don’t wash and dry it immediately after cooking. Carbon Nonstick™️ can soak in the sink overnight without issues.

Nitriding is a process by which a metal surface is super-heated in a nitrogen-rich environment, which creates an extremely durable, corrosion-resistant, and virtually nonstick surface without the need for coatings like ceramic or Teflon.

Nitriding is completely safe and nontoxic, and is widely used in industries beyond cookware, including aerospace, automotive, surgical, and industrial machinery.

Carbon Nonstick™ works on all stovetop types - gas, electric, and induction.

Reviews Summary

Customers say this carbon nonstick frying pan delivers excellent nonstick performance right out of the box, with food sliding easily without sticking. The pan heats evenly and quickly, requiring minimal oil for cooking. Many reviews highlight the durable, scratch-resistant surface that improves with seasoning over time. The glass lid fits snugly with its silicone seal, and the higher-sided design prevents splashing. Users appreciate the lightweight construction compared to cast iron, easy cleanup, and long-lasting quality. Some note it requires preheating with oil and occasional maintenance, but most find it superior to traditional nonstick alternatives.

The Holy Grail of nonstick pans?
I have been searching for a nonstick frying pan for a few months. I had already tried out the traditional nonstick pan with teflon coating but wanted to move away from potentially harmful chemicals. It worked well but it didn’t hold up to high heat and scrubbing. I tried the ceramic coated pans next which also works great until the surface scratches from metal utensils or scrubbing. It didn’t last much longer than the teflon pan. I gave a titanium coated pan advertised to specifically be nonstick. Unfortunately, the surface is tough and holds up a lot but despite trying to let the food self separate from the surface, it would stick, even with using oil which it claimed not to need. I ordered the Misen nonstick frying oan and have been extremely happy with its performance and being able to tolerate a good scrub and stay nonstick. I do still add a little oil, but it’s a small amount and doesn’t affect the food other than to add a little flavor. I tried out the 8 inch pan but just ordered the 12 inch version. Looking forward to a long lasting answer to my nonstivk cooking woes!

It has been a year - and I still love this pan!
I bought this pan a year ago to transition away from classic nonstick, and have used it almost every day since. I love that you can use metal tools, and it requires slightly less maintenance than carbon steel or cast iron. It is lightweight, and it worked beautifully for the first few months with little to no maintenance. As the patina layer built up, I found that I have had to condition the pan more frequently (described on the Misen site) but it still works very well! I think the main keys to success with this pan are to never cook above medium heat, condition if the pan looks dull, and use either butter or a high smoke point oil. For the eggs cooked in this video, I used about 1/4 tbsp butter and had no issues. I still reach for my stainless steel and cast iron for searing meats and high temp things, but this pan works for just about everything else! I would recommend the “deeper” newer version though, which I think is a great improvement.

The Deeper Carbon Nonstick set is built for cooks who want more room without switching materials. The extra height on the 8", 10", and 12" pans means you can scramble a full batch of eggs, simmer a pan sauce, or fry without worrying about oil splashing over the rim — while the nitrided carbon steel stays coating-free and safe for metal utensils from the first use. The square griddle rounds things out for pancakes, smash burgers, and grilled cheese on the same coating-free surface.

Tempered glass lids add real versatility here, since they trap heat and moisture for braising or covered simmering, and they're oven-safe to 450°F if you want to finish a dish under cover. If you already own pans and just need lids, the standalone Glass Lid fits this same line. For care, a quick look at the Carbon Nonstick care guide will help keep the surface performing well for years.

If the deeper profile isn't essential for your kitchen, the standard-depth Carbon Nonstick Complete Set + Glass Lids offers the same coating-free cooking in a more compact size — worth comparing before you decide which fits your stovetop and storage best.
