Title: Unsuitable for gas: unstable, uneven heat (electric OK?)
Review: A good format for a small pan: enough for 1-2 fried eggs, or a small sauteed garnish or side dish, all that.BUT this is not the right pan to buy if you use gas.First of all, it is unstable. It is fairly stable on a flat surface such as a countertop or an electric burner, but on most gas burners, it will be unstable and tip over when empty or near-empty. The handle needs to be lighter, or the copper disk heavier.Secondly, the copper disk on the bottom isn't wide enough. Gas flames lick up the sides, and so you have a too-hot ring surrounding the part that is over the copper disk. This is very obvious if you fry an egg. You have to turn the heat much too far down to avoid this.I suspect it works reasonably well on electric burners, but I haven't tried.For gas, I'd recommend you get a pan that doesn't just have a copper disk, but is solid copper or aluminum.
