For a carbon steel pan, start by washing, rinsing, and drying the pan. Heat the pan on your range on medium to high heat, then add shortening to the pan. Use a clean dry towel to spread the shortening around the interior of the pan, creating an even coat. Remove the pan from the heat, wipe out the excess shortening and let it cool. You can repeat this process up to 3 more times. For a cast iron skillet, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with aluminum foil and set aside. Wash, rinse, and dry your skillet. Place the skillet in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove and coat the entire skillet with shortening, inside and out. Place the skillet in the oven for 45 minutes with the baking pan on a rack below it to catch any mess. You can repeat this process up to three more times.

Prepare delicious personal pan pizzas with this American Metalcraft HCSQ1210 12 1/2" x 12 1/2" square pizza / cake pan! A reliable and durable choice for your pizza shop, this 1" deep pan is made of 14 gauge, 1.5 mm thick hard coat, anodized aluminum! It is resistant to corrosion and rust, and is a durable option that will last for years in your establishment. This practical pan's straight-sided design is perfect for everyday use in your pizzeria and doubles as a shallow cake pan. Though optimized for layer cakes, you can use this pan to bake a variety of desserts! Ideal for maximizing storage space, these pans stack together when not in use.

Hard coat anodized pans, like this one, undergo a special electro-chemical process that converts the surface of aluminum into aluminum oxide. Thanks to the hard coat finish and its dark coloring, this pan heats up quickly and gets hotter than typical pans to promote rapid baking. It is capable of keeping bottom crusts light, as it reflects heat rather than absorbing it. Because of it's hard surface, you can safely use metal utensils on this pan. It's important to note that this pan is not non-stick and must be seasoned.
