Things that are important to know about Mineral B iron frying pans
- De Buyer pans are made in France, and the only ones with a certificate of iron purity over 99%. The best!
- They are iron pans, so they can rust. How to avoid it? Avoid prolonged contact with water, do not let them air dry: simply, after washing, dry them with a cloth. If you want, you can leave them on low heat for a few minutes again to lose all moisture while you finish cooking (it's a very easy and useful trick to follow).
- If you are going to leave them unused for many days, you can apply a little oil and spread it over the surface with a paper towel, but it is by no means essential.
- Before first use, it is very useful to season them. This seasoning makes them more naturally non-stick. Seasoning is super simple to do. Watch the video among the photos to learn how.
- You have a pan for life! You can scrub it with a soft sponge, or wash it with steel wool if needed to remove stuck food, it won't harm the pan! (there is no non-stick coating to damage). They can turn black, evenly or in patches. Don't worry, the blacker they get, the better they will perform.
- If rust spots appear, wipe with a paper towel with oil, and you'll see how it disappears like magic. If the rusted area is larger, use steel wool without fear. Nothing will happen; it is a completely iron pan: under the iron layer, there is more iron.
- If you have had to scrub it with steel wool or just want to, you can season it again, but it is not at all necessary to do it repeatedly.
