About

De Buyer was established in 1830 and is based in Vosges, France. The company is recognised the world over as a leading brand in professional and domestic cookware. Each frying pan, saucepan or utensil is formed using traditional methods and then hand-polished to guarantee a perfect finish. We carry a wide range of their carbon steel frying pans, copper and stainless cookware and speciality items. ---BUYERS GUIDE--- Mineral B & Mineral B Pro Carbon Steel These robust iron pans are a chef’s best friend. Once it reaches temperatures above 140°C, a carbon steel frying pan sears food on the surface causing a crust to form and preventing tasty juices from escaping. The food browns and is crispy on the surface, tender and juicy in the middle. This kind of frying is perfect for frying meat and obtaining crispy crepes or heavenly omelettes. The pans from the Mineral B line are completely coated with natural beeswax to prevent oxidation before purchase. Both Mineral B and Mineral B Pro pans must be 'seasoned' with vegetable or rapeseed oil before its first use. Details are included with your pan, and in our pan seasoning guide (click here ). The pans should not be cleaned with dish soap (except for the initial seasoning), or put in the dishwasher. Instead, clean the pan with warm water and salt. If the pan has not been used for a while, or if water does not dry properly on the surface, small rust spots can occur, but they will be removed when you re-season the pan. (We recommend doing so at least once a month until the patina looks dark.) Learn more about the difference between carbon steel, cast iron and spun iron pans by clicking here .
