WincoAluminum Stir Fry Pan, 11-Inch,Silver

I saw this pan being used in a video on YouTube to deep fry and it interested me enough I bought one. Have to admit, I use it for everything - stir fry, soup, one-pot meals, boiling spuds and eggs, deep frying. I don't even put it in the cupboard. I leave it on top of the stove because it is now my go-to pan for everything. And nothing sticks to it. Clean up is a breeze. I see some complaints on how it gets marked up, but that just goes with using aluminum cookware like this and the superficial marks don't affect how it works. If you want something that always looks brand new, don't get aluminum cookware.

The best saltapasta I’ve tried. Amazing buy.

The pan sturdy and is made of thick aluminum providing excellent temperature control. I specifically bought it to prepare pasta sauce and toss the pasta in (wirectter/serious ets recommendation). The high walls allow to stir vigorously but they are too steep to toss the pasta without making a mess so that is a little bit disappointing. Also, the pan showed heavy oxidation after boiling salted water all over the surface in contact with the water. It does alter functionality but it looks pretty terrible.With hindsight, I should probably have gone with a carbon steel small wok. I would allow one to cook acidic food for a long time without worry, offer non stick surface, ease of cleaning without sacrificing sturdiness.

Im sure you have read how good of a pasta pan this is. Im here to tell you its true. It is the right shape for tossing pasta in sauce and getting nice emuslifcation as you do so. Great pan.

I like the weight, the handle and the size of the bowl. Easily making a pasta dish for 2-3 people. Good quality overall. Careful cleaning though, one does not want to put too many swirl marks on it.

Perfect for pasta finishing: deep and rounded, lightweight, fast to heat, indestructible interior, and big enough for 4-6 servings. Pasta finishing is quick and easy and very consistent using this pan. (Finishing is using starch-laden pasta water as the last step of mixing sauce with pasta, this is the key point to making silky smooth pasta; absolutely essential to recreate Italian recipes)

If you want to cook some nice Italian pasta. This one helps with the mantecatura.

This pot is worthless. Everything you cook on it sticks to it. Tries to used it on many different dishes but I give up. It’s now in the garage.
