Description
De Buyer's iconic Mineral B carbon steel frying pan is beloved by chefs and home cooks for the way it sears ingredients to perfection, from steaks to pan-roasted vegetables. It is made to last forever, only getting better (and more stick-resistant) with time. The Pro range features oven-safe cast stainless steel handles.
Note: This pan must be seasoned before use, then regularly mantained. Find instructions in our guide.
---DETAILS---
The Mineral B Pro Frying Pan from De Buyer is designed to reach high temperatures which are ideal for searing, browning and grilling. These heavy iron pans are very durable, and only improve with time thanks to a natural easy-release layer of 'seasoning' that develops over time as you cook in the pan. You'll know how well-seasoned this pan is based on the colour: It will go from grey to black. When manufactured, it is treated with organic beeswax, which protects the pan from oxidation in transit — this needs to be removed by you prior to use, as it kickstarts the seasoning process. (To learn how to do that, click here.) The Mineral B Pro range features cast stainless steel handles which are oven-safe. The 32cm size also has a helper handle. This pan can be used on all hobs, including induction. It can be used on open barbecues (not covered barbecues like the Big Green Egg).
Note: This pan must be seasoned before use, or else it will rust. Once seasoned, it will form a layer that needs to be regularly maintained. Read our instructions on how to season and maintain a carbon steel pan, and why it's worth it, in our guide.
---BENEFITS---
'This pan is nothing short of magical. If you're new to carbon steel or cast iron, it does take some getting used to, but once you've developed a layer of seasoning—and the best way to do that is to simply cook in it—you'll see it's completely worth it.'
