This Iron Tortilla Pan Mineral B by De Buyer is a dream for tortilla lovers. You’ll cook them to perfection thanks to the excellent heat distribution provided by its rimless design. You’ll achieve Michelin-star tortillas!
As French as La Marseillaise, De Buyer’s Mineral iron pans are eco-friendly, recyclable and built to last a lifetime.
- Handcrafted from natural iron, without chemicals or heavy metals.
- Made without chemicals, artificial coatings or heavy metals,
- They are treated with a natural beeswax coating that protects the pan from the factory until it reaches your home.
- With use, they develop a patina that makes them naturally non-stick.
- This model was designed to give the perfect shape to tortillas, but thanks to its low sides it is ideal for searing meat, sautéing vegetables or frying eggs.
- Suitable for all heat sources, including induction.
- And they can be used in the oven for 10 minutes at 200 °C, as they do not have a wooden handle.
This is the pan our grandmothers always had at home! The iron pan that will bring back those authentic and delicious flavours. A pan worth its weight in gold, and it will last you a lifetime!
Remember we have a protective handle cover for De Buyer iron pans to help prevent burns when handling the pan.
Why we love the Mineral B Iron Tortilla Pan by De Buyer
- It is designed especially for this purpose, as the absence of rims allows you to slide the tortilla effortlessly onto the plate.
- The natural non-stick properties of these pans make them perfect for preparing tortillas – how did we not think of it before?
Important things to know about Mineral B iron pans
- De Buyer pans are made in France and the only ones with a certificate of iron purity above 99%. The best!
- They are iron pans, so they can rust. How to prevent it? Avoid prolonged contact with water and do not leave them to air dry: simply dry them with a cloth after washing. You can also place them back on a low heat for a few minutes to remove any remaining moisture (a very simple and useful tip).
- If you are not going to use them for several days, you can apply a little oil and spread it over the surface with kitchen paper, though this is by no means essential.
- Before first use, it is highly recommended to season them. Seasoning makes them more naturally non-stick. It’s very easy to do. Watch the video between the photos to see how.
- You have a pan for life! You can scrub it with a soft sponge or even use a scouring pad if needed to remove food – nothing will happen to the pan! (there is no coating to damage). They may turn black evenly or in patches. Don’t worry – the blacker they become, the better they perform.
- If small rust spots appear, rub them with kitchen paper and oil and they will disappear like magic. If the rusty area is larger, use a scouring pad without fear. Nothing will happen; it is a pan made entirely of iron: beneath the iron layer, there is more iron.
- If you have scrubbed it with a scouring pad or simply feel like it, you can season it again, but this is absolutely not essential.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference from the classic Mineral B pan?
The material and care are the same. The shape is what changes: the edges are lower and curved so the tortilla slides onto the plate and back into the pan.
Why does my tortilla stick?
Because the pan doesn't have a patina yet. For the first few days, use it to fry potatoes, meat or vegetables. For your first tortillas, heat the pan gradually, use enough oil and add the egg when the oil is properly hot.
What size do I need?
Look at the base diameter: 14 cm on the 20 cm pan, 17.5 cm on the 24 cm and 19.5 cm on the 28 cm. The 20 cm is for small tortillas; the 28 cm, for family-sized ones.
How much does it weigh?
1.03 kg the 20 cm, 1.34 kg the 24 cm and 2.1 kg the 28 cm.
Do I need to season it?
Yes, once, before the first use, just like the classic Mineral B. You'll find the step-by-step instructions in our seasoning and care guide.
How do I flip the tortilla?
With a flat plate larger than the pan. Its low, curved edges let you slide it back into the pan without it breaking.
Is it suitable for induction?
Yes, for all hobs, including induction.
