De Buyer Alchimy Loqy Stainless Steel Frying Pan

If you hesitate between a frying pan or a paella pan, you won’t have to choose! Because the Alchimy Loqy Stainless Steel Frying Pan from De Buyer can be both. With the innovative Loqy De Buyer range with interchangeable handles and grips, you can do it all with a single body of multilayer stainless steel, fitting the handle or grips. Ideal for frying, sautéing, roasting, or preparing delicious rice dishes, it will be a must-have in your kitchen.

The frying pan, like all Alchimy De Buyer pieces, features a multilayer design with higher density that combines stainless steel with an aluminum interior. It allows total control and even heat distribution, which facilitates cooking and makes it much more efficient and sustainable.

Important: Does not include the handle or Loqy handles. The collection is designed so you can assemble the Set to your liking, allowing you to use several pots and pans with just one handle whenever you want.

What is Loqy from De Buyer

Loqy is the collection of most functional and versatile utensils from De Buyer. All pieces in the range feature a practical system of removable and interchangeable handles and grips. The Loqy De Buyer collection brings together the brand’s essentials and turns them into ideal pieces for any use by simply attaching the grips or handle as needed:

• The Loqy handle is made of cast stainless steel, robust and durable. Its ergonomic design with a French curve provides an optimal and comfortable grip. The locking system is simple and secure, allowing it to be attached to the utensil with one hand, fitting firmly and safely.
  
• The Loqy grips come in two models: beech wood with stainless steel rivets or cast stainless steel. Their clip-on system makes them very easy to put on and take off. They allow a comfortable grip and handling and are very safe and pleasant to the touch.

Both the handle and grips are suitable and unique for all pieces in the Loqy collection from De Buyer, which includes utensils from four different ranges:

• Alchimy, made of multilayer stainless steel,
  
• Mineral B, iron
• Ceranoa, made of cast aluminum with ceramic coating, and
• Choc Extreme, made of cast aluminum with non-stick coating.

The French brand has redesigned its essentials so that with a single handle and one set of grips you can have a complete cookware set, combining the materials you prefer to cook with on each occasion and taking up minimal storage space.
