de Buyer Frypan 11"
Discover the de Buyer 11-inch Blue Carbon Steel Fry Pan, expertly crafted in France for a superior cooking experience. This pan masterfully blends the heat retention of cast iron with the lighter maneuverability of stainless steel. Its unique blue heat-treated carbon steel construction resists initial corrosion and develops a natural non-stick patina over time. Ideal for searing, sautéing, and browning, it performs exceptionally on all cooktops, including induction. For lasting quality, this durable pan requires handwashing and is oven-safe up to 500°F.
