Our son-in-law likes to cook breakfasts with a flair, so we got him a 10" Calphalon frittata pan for Christmas. As we hoped, we had a frittata for next day's brunch.
The test frittata featured sausage with a nice spiciness, provalone cheese, asiago cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic, peppers, onions, and a dozen smallish eggs (recipe called for ten). (I'll see if I can get the recipe back and post it.)
Ready for the eggs and cheeses.
As the egg begins to set, you move around the outside lifting the edge and tilting to let uncooked egg flow underneath. Turn after ~6 min.
Oil the top pan, join them, and turn. Let cook ~6 min. on the second side.
Slide it onto a plate for dividing into servings. It doesn't show at this angle, but this baby was about 1 1/2" thick, perfectly cooked, and very good.

(Four eager eaters, and still there was a little bit left. I wish I had it now -- I'd warm it up, toast some bread, and make it into a sandwich.)
Gadget Reporter said:According to Wikipedia "A frittata is a type of Italian omelette that frequently features fillings such as meats, cheeses, and vegetables. Like a traditional French omelette, a frittata is prepared in a skillet."
The Calphalon One Nonstick Frittata Pan allows you to make a frittata by just flipping the pan. Actually, the pan is really two pans with interlocking handles. “Both infused-anodized aluminum pieces have nonstick interiors for effortless release and cleaning. You can also use the base pan as a fry or omelet pan; the top pan is perfect for making crepes. Oven and broiler safe to 500°F. Hand-wash. 10" diam. overall.
