Crispy crust on your piece of meat
This practical frying pan is made of 100% natural iron. This material can withstand very high temperatures without damaging it. A piece of meat and fish is quickly seared by the high temperatures. In this way no nutrients are lost and a crispy crust is formed. This Mineral B-element frying pan from DeBuyer has an anti-oxidation protection.
Protection of beeswax
This frying pan is free from chemicals and coatings such as PFOA and PTFE. Instead, this pan is provided with a protection based on natural beeswax. When you use the pan a lot, there is a natural non-stick coating. This makes the baking result always better. The darker the bottom of this frying pan becomes, the better the non-stick coating will do its job.
Burn-in before use
Before you can work with the DeBuyer B-element pan, it is important that you burn the pan first. The simplest way is as follows:
- Wash the pan very well first, so that the wax layer is completely gone
- Put the pan dry on the fire and let it get hot
- Pour in some vegetable oil and spread well over the bottom of the pan
- Let the oil burn in, until the pan starts to smoke (the bottom of the pan is changing, that's the intention)
- Turn off the heat, let the pan cool down completely and wipe away the excess oil with some kitchen paper
- Ready for use!
