de Buyer Mineral B Pro Carbon Steel Country Pan, 11″

Peek into the kitchen of a French restaurant and you’ll see carbon steel pans hanging above the stoves. Traditional French omelette and crêpe pans are always made of carbon steel because they’re lighter and thinner than cast iron, yet heat up twice as fast. Chefs prefer them because once seasoned, they are perfectly nonstick – omelettes roll out of the pan with ease, pancakes slide across the surface and steaks sear to perfection. Ideal for use on any type of cooktop, including induction, this versatile carbon steel pan features high, rounded sides that contain food while sautéing or stir-frying, plus a stay-cool stainless-steel handle.
