Do you want to buy a wok for cooking but still can't decide? After reading this post you'll be very clear and you won't be able to cook some recipes without a wok.

Our friend Luisa, author of the blog Cocinando con mi carmela, has prepared a delicious stir-fry using a De Buyer mineral iron skillet. Enjoy!

Nuestra amiga Miriam, autora del blog El invitado de invierno, nos trae una original tarta de crêpes que ha realizado usando la crepera de hierro De Buyer. ¡Espero que la disfrutéis!

Are titanium pans safe for health? Are diamond ones better? Many customers call us looking for non-stick pans without Teflon because they are concerned about the effects of this substance on their family’s health. Some customers ask us for titanium or diamond pans because they understand they do not have Teflon (we can assume their coating is made of titanium, diamond or in some cases granite or stone).

As many of you know, I’m a true fan of the Le Creuset brand and its cast iron casseroles. They are a true icon of French cooking. cast iron is a material that was already used in Roman times to make cookware; and even today, with all the materials we have at our disposal, there’s no other material as versatile, as good-looking, and with better heat retention.

Yesterday we had our friend and great cook Stéphane Poussardin at We Love Cooking preparing some "tapas" or tasty and very easy-to-make appetizers. Here are a couple of recipes that were very successful; I hope you enjoy them.

Last week our friend Stéphane Poussardin was at our demo space, We Love Cooking, preparing some delicious recipes with De Buyer’s Mineral B iron pans. Today I want to bring you one of the ones I liked most because it’s so easy and original. I hope you like it :)

Cornbread is a traditional variety of bread from the United States that is very easy to prepare. Since lately many people ask me for bread recipes of all kinds, whether to make with the bread maker, with the Emile Henry bread oven or different recipes that are easy, I thought you might be interested in this recipe.

This delicious and original recipe was made by our friend Stéphane Poussardin in the Claudia&Julia showroom, We Love Cooking. Stéphane is a good friend who has a beautiful space in Barcelona (L'Atelier d'Stéphane) where he offers market-driven creative cooking workshops and tasting menus for small groups.

De Buyer mineral iron skillets are one of our customers' favorite products. They are very natural pans that let us recapture the timeless flavors, whether we fry an egg or some potatoes or cook a good steak. They are also very affordably priced and can last many years if we give them proper maintenance.

A few days ago a friend called me and told me she was looking at my website because she wanted a frying pan, but didn't know which frying pan to buy. She said she wanted a "regular" frying pan and that on our website they were very expensive.

Coq au vin (or chicken in wine recipe, as we would say here) is a classic dish of French Occitan origin, truly delicious. Today I bring step-by-step the authentic chicken in wine recipe, which became famous in the United States largely thanks to our beloved Julia Child.
