Rant: I swore by my old heavy-bottomed pans for years, but a demo at the Portland food show changed my mind.
The chef seared scallops in a carbon steel pan that went from fridge to ripping hot in under 90 seconds. Anyone else made the switch from cast iron to carbon steel for searing?

That "doorstop" line is too real. It's the same with a lot of stuff we think is the best tool for the job. We get comfortable and stop asking if there's a better way. I held onto my old heavy laptop for years because it felt solid, until I tried a lighter one and realized I was just carrying extra weight for no reason. Sometimes a demo or just seeing something new in action is all it takes to break that loyalty.
