Non-Stick Carbon Steel vs. Regular Pizza Pan: Deep Dish Tested for Cookie Cakes

Non-Stick Carbon Steel vs. Regular Pizza Pan: Deep Dish Tested for Cookie Cakes

We've put the Chicago Metallic Professional 14-Inch Deep Dish Pizza Pan to the test, comparing its non-stick carbon steel construction to a standard pizza pan. The results? A game-changer for both pizza and cookie cakes. The non-stick surface eliminated the need for oil, letting us craft a golden, crisp crust without the hassle of greasy residue. Its seasoned carbon steel base ensured even heat distribution, baking our deep-dish pizza to a bubbly, perfectly charred perfection-just how Chicagoans love it. For cookie cakes, the pan's generous depth and sturdy build held up under layers of batter, creating a moist, evenly baked dessert with clean edges. Unlike regular pans, which can struggle with sticking or uneven cooking, this one feels like an ally in the kitchen. The versatility is impressive: from pizza to specialty treats, it adapts seamlessly. While the learning curve for using carbon steel might take a few attempts, the payoff is worth it. Our kitchen has never felt more confident in its culinary adventures-this pan is a reliable workhorse for all things deep-dish and beyond.
