Sonora small pan is a work of art!!

I have read consumer reports to good housekeeping testing to reading reviews on cookware safety. I enjoy cast iron big pans for oven cooking and I was looking for stovetop. My BIL had texted me about carbon steel pans. I looked and found Santa Barbara. In the US is very important to me to buy in the US products. It came in a nicely packed box and burlap sack. The handle is beautifully made. It feels amazing to cook food in it. It cleans really well. I follow their instructions on cleaning it and oiling it. It’s a beautiful piece of art that can make delicious and safe food to nourish our bodies. Keep up the hard work! It shows in your products. I am saving up to extend my collection .
