More French than the Three Musketeers, the De Buyer Mineral iron grill pan is perfect for a homemade and healthy kitchen with low fat. Just what you're looking for. This pan is exactly like the popular Mineral B pan from the brand, but with stripes on the base, to be able to grill meat and vegetables with that caramelization point or Maillard reaction that we seek for a perfect roast.
Why is this grill pan ideal as a griddle?
Iron gets hotter than other materials, so besides getting the griddle ready quickly, it allows you to seal the food super quickly, achieving a sealed meat that retains all the juice inside. In addition, the hot air that runs underneath the food, thanks to the grooves on the base, helps in that desired caramelization Maillard effect, and you also get those typical grill marks that give the dish a perfect finish. An ideal grill pan!
About De Buyer Mineral B pans
- Handcrafted in iron.
- Without using chemicals or strange coatings or heavy metals,
- They are treated with a layer of natural beeswax that protects the pan from the factory until you receive it at home.
- With use, they acquire a patina that makes them naturally non-stick.
- Ideal for browning or roasting meats as well as sautéing vegetables or making fried eggs.
- Suitable for all heat sources including induction.
- They can be placed in the oven (they can go in the oven at 200°C for ten minutes).
It's the pan of a lifetime, the grandmothers' iron pan, that allows you to recover those authentic and delicious flavors. It's a pan worth its weight in gold, and it will last you a lifetime at home! Imagine a good piece of meat or some grilled vegetables made in this grill pan - yes, the meat and vegetables of your dreams!
Remember that we have a protective cover for the handle of De Buyer iron pans, which will help you avoid burning yourself when handling the pan.
Things to Know About De Buyer Mineral B Iron Pans
- De Buyer pans are made in France, and they are the only ones with a purity certificate of over 99% iron. The best!
- They are iron pans, so they can rust. How to prevent it? Avoid prolonged contact with water, don't let them air dry: simply dry them with a cloth after washing. If you want, you can leave them on low heat for a few minutes again to completely remove the moisture while finishing cooking (it's a very easy trick to follow and very useful).
- If you're 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's not essential.
- Before the first use, it's very interesting 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 to do it.
- You have a pan for a lifetime! You can scrub it with a soft sponge, or wash it with soap if needed to remove food, and nothing will happen to the pan! (there's no non-stick coating to damage). They can turn black, uniformly or in patches. Don't worry, the blacker they get, the better they will perform.
- If rust spots appear, rub with a paper towel with oil, and you'll see how it magically disappears. If the rusted area is larger, use soap without fear. Nothing will happen; it's a completely iron pan: under the iron layer, there's more iron.
- If you've had to scrub it with soap or if you simply feel like it, you can season it again, but it's not essential to do it regularly.
