De Buyer Kitchen Blowtorch

The De Buyer kitchen blowtorch is an essential tool in both professional kitchens and in homes where good cooking is taken seriously. Easy to use, precise and very powerful, it’s perfect for adding the finishing touch to your dishes. Its ergonomic and lightweight design makes it comfortable to handle, while the adjustable flame lets you work with precision at any angle.

Everything you can do with a kitchen blowtorch

• Caramelise sugar on crème brûlées, flans or tarts.
• Brown meringues and give desserts a golden, crispy finish.
• Melt cheese on burgers, gratins, lasagne or onion soup.
• Brown meat, fish or vegetables without needing the oven.
• Sanitise fish and meat by burning off scales or hair.
• Peel tomatoes, peppers or fruit with ease.
• Light charcoal, flambé or heat kitchen utensils.

How the De Buyer blowtorch works

It runs on butane gas (the same used for lighters – not included, but available in most tobacconists or supermarkets). Its automatic piezo ignition makes the flame activate quickly and safely – no need for matches or external sparks.

Simply fill the tank, turn the dial to release gas and press the red button – the flame lights instantly. You can also adjust the intensity using the upper control to suit every preparation.
