Unique features and specifications

• Natural carbon steel without a non-stick coating: a strong, pure material that heats up quickly and can withstand high heat. After seasoning, a natural patina forms: a dark layer formed by heated oil, which acts as a protective layer and ensures increasingly better non-stick properties with regular use.
• Beeswax coating: protects the pan against oxidation and helps with seasoning before first use.
• Lyonnaise profile: rounded edge that allows food to slide out of the pan easily, perfect for caramelization thanks to the Maillard reaction.
• Riveted handle: ergonomic, sturdy and curved in French style, fits comfortably in the hand and remains away from the heat source.
• Suitable for all heat sources: including induction.
• Dimensions: ⌀20 cm (outer diameter), ⌀13.3 cm (base), height 4.1 cm, weight 1.04 kg.
• Handle length: 16 cm, total pan length 35.3 cm.

Burn-in
Before first use, the pan must be seasoned to activate its natural non-stick properties:

1. Rinse the pan with warm water and dry thoroughly.
2. Add about 1mm of vegetable oil to the bottom of the pan.
3. Heat the pan until the oil starts to smoke.
4. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool.
5. Drain the oil and wipe the pan clean with a paper towel.
6. Heat the pan empty for another 2 minutes over medium heat.

The pan is now ready for use!

Cleaning

• Clean the pan after each use with warm water and a soft sponge. Do not use dish soap.
  
• Allow any burnt-on residue to soften or deglaze the pan after use.
  
• Dry the pan thoroughly to prevent rust formation.
  
• After cleaning, apply a thin layer of oil to protect the steel.
  
• Not suitable for the dishwasher.
  
• Be careful with acidic ingredients like tomatoes and lemon, as they can damage the patina. Afterward, it's important to season the pan again with some oil.

Please note: It's completely normal for the pan to change color due to seasoning and regular baking and frying. This is a natural process and contributes to the pan's performance.
