Know your dreams

 

I had them

 

and realized them by circumstances 

 

and an excellent exchange rate.

 

Paris.  

 

the pans you mention

 

and the ones I had and still have

 

can't be that different than what you picture.

their web site is impossible for me to navigate 

 

my pans are 3 mm w a stainless interior ' Nickel '

 

I washed them but did not spruce them up :

I used these pans since 1982.  I think they are called Fry pans

 

I have two :  this one : 8.2/4  "  ( you get to do the Metrics "

 

and it weights 1600 grams

 

its sibling it 10.3/4 " and I did not take it down from the rack

 

5 minutes w BartenderFriends on the interior :  just like new

 

i never polished the copper surface , as its pointless

 

unless HomeBeatiful is on its way.

 

I had 4 true  saute pans , that's the same w a striating up side

 

and about 6 if not more sauce pans

 

pans you put water in and simmered your veg or made sauce

 

in 1982  they did not make a saucier.

 

I had a number of oval pans w handles for baking / broiling

 

and two stock/braise pans , for ' stew '

 

start ion the gas cook top

 

move to the oven and wait

 

I do encourage to get one or two

 

of the finest thickest Steel cooking surface pans you can afford.

 

don't bother w classic  straight sided sauce if you can get ' fry '

 

don't bother w ' sauce '  if its a strait sided pan you might

 

boil potatoes in

 

the key is the weight , the thickness of the copper and the cooling surface

 

after that , the cooper on the sides of the sauce pan just radiate heat

 

and take the water in the pan longer to boil

 

once in the oven , the stock / braising pan

 

heating characteristics do not matter much.  its just the bottom

 

then after you find one or two pans you are going to enjoy

 

then decided on others

 

1 - 2 is all your need for the pure enjoyment of profession cooper

 

its all about the bottom

 

good luck

 

I hope your are successful

 

as I was just about to push return and Post

 

the Pan spoke to me from the Kitchen

 

just just around a corner

 

I think it was in French , and i used to speak it well

 

a very very long time ago

 

could not make out the accent.  very guttural 

 

I did recognize  " gendarme " " DGSI "  " DGSE "

 

and possibly " Flying Squad "

 

so I went in and polished the pan w BTF :  3 minutes :

D4.thumb.jpg.cdb8ed5dd6fecdd67fa3e041fb15db0b.jpg

 

 

note the bottom changed a bit w no effort other than  slight movement over the wood board.

 

I have lived in France.  Lesson :  Official looking French folks

 

w those funny French hats :

and machine guns 

 

well  , avoid them
