De Buyer 'Mineral B Element' Frying Pan

This French made pan is crafted from carbon steel, making it a fantastic solution if you cook on high heat or have an induction stove top. The Mineral B becomes naturally non-stick after your first season, with the non-stick quality becoming better the more the pan is seasoned.

This De Buyer pan is great for cooking meat as it is oven safe for up to 10 minutes, perfect for searing steak at the last moment. It also features the iconic beeswax coating that helps protect it from oxidation before first use.

Before First Use - Cleaning & Seasoning
