Boost the performance of your kitchen for generations with this de Buyer Mineral B Element 14 3/16" carbon steel fry pan with helper handle! Absolutely perfect for searing, grilling, and browning, this pan only gets better with time. Simply season before using it for the first time and it will gradually become more seasoned and develop non-stick properties after each and every use. Not to mention, it works with any type of cooking surface, including induction. Just make sure to only hand wash this pan by deglazing, rinsing under warm water, drying, and finally lightly oiling it before its next use. More heat conductive than stainless steel and lighter than cast iron cookware, de Buyer's Mineral B Element line is built with durable carbon steel that's made from 99% iron and 1% carbon. Each piece comes coated in natural beeswax in order to protect against oxidation, so there is no need to ever worry about your cookware arriving with rust. The beeswax finish is completely mess free as it won't drip or pool and it also helps to facilitate the progressive seasoning of the pan over time. This fry pan, like every other item in the Mineral B Element collection, also features riveted, epoxy coated stainless steel French handles. The main one is even built with a hanging hole for easy storage and organization. Crafting high quality products since 1830, almost all of de Buyer's cookware is manufactured directly out of their factory in the Vosges region of France. Passion is poured into each item in order to allow equally passionate chefs to thrive in the kitchen. Be sure to mix and match this piece with others in the de Buyer Mineral B Element collection (sold separately) in order to bring both tradition and functionality to your kitchen that can last for lifetimes.
