About de Buyer Pans

Before using a de Buyer steel pan, you must first 'season' it to create a non-stick layer. To burn in the pan, place the pan over medium/high heat, without oil first. Pour a good layer of oil into the pan. Use an oil that can handle high temperatures. Olive oil, for example, is not well suited for this purpose. Let it boil for 5 minutes. Don't be alarmed by the smoke, this is normal. After 5 minutes you can pour off the oil and dry the pan with kitchen paper. You can now use the pan normally! As you use the pan, it will become blacker and better protected against burning. Never wash the pan with washing-up liquid after use - hot water is sufficient to get the pan clean. In this way, the pan remains slightly greasy and the non-stick coating remains intact.
