I received the following product for review purposes, all opinions are my own.
When I was growing up frozen peas were not a stable. Fresh peas were abundant from my mother’s garden. Unfortunately I did not inherit her green thumb, so frozen peas are my children’s reality. Lacking the fresh vibrant taste of newly picked peas, I endeavor to add some flavor to our frozen variety by sautéing them with enhancing ingredients. A little salt, pepper, Parmesan, onions and butter can add make a typical bag of these vegetables come to life.
The latest enhancement to my sautéing is this Flare pan. With FIN-X technology, the idea is to cook fast and ultimately cook better. The noticeable difference in this pan is the flared bottom; it isn’t too hard to figure out where they came up with the name of the cookware. Made with cast aluminum these “performance fins” contain the heat and distribute it evenly across and up the pan.
I tested this UK developed pan by making eggs and our favorite sautéed peas. The efficiency of the locked-on heat combined with the nonstick surface made for quick results. The first time I tried the pan was on my gas stove. The gas while powerful can also produce uneven heat, my Flare pan did a great job of heating my eggs equally. I made both scrambled eggs and omelets with easy success.
The next test was on these sautéed peas with an electric stove at Nana’s house. I can attest the pan works well on both gas and electronic stoves. Our frozen peas were ready in no time. Based upon my experience with this 8-inch sauté pan I’m eager to try the stockpot. Any way I can make water boil faster for my always hungry fellas is a good thing.

GOOD LUCK!
I’ve not heard of the flare pan but I like the concept. I bet it heats very evenly and fast.
I have never heard of a flare pan before, but what I like about it is that the flared pan distributes the heat much more effectively than a regular pan. This pan sounds amazing! I made sauteed peas in Parmesan last night. It would be great to make this recipe in this pan!
I have not heard of this brand, I am curious about the heat distribution during cooking.

I have never heard of them before. I like the base of the pan, which would stabilize it while on the stove. I hate when I am cooking eggs and the uneven pan causes it to shift to one side.
This is the first time I’ve heard of a Flare pan.
I like how evenly and fast things cook in them.
thank you
I have never heard of a Flare pan until I ready your review, it would be interesting to see if with my gas stove it stays evenly cooking, very interesting concept, thank you for sharing this review

I have not heard of this brand before. I am intrigued by the bottom of the pan and how it would help heat distribute evenly. Right now I use cast iron and I still have to turn the pan often to cook food evenly.
