Know before you buy
A comal is designed with a flatter, shallower profile than a traditional skillet, making it ideal for tasks that require easy flipping and sliding, such as toasting tortillas, searing quesadillas, or making crepes.
Yes, the Victoria Comal is pre-seasoned with flaxseed oil, so it is ready for immediate use. However, continuing to season it after each use will further improve its non-stick performance over time.
No, this specific model is designed for use on gas and electric coil stovetops. It is not recommended for induction surfaces.
Hand wash the skillet with warm water and a mild soap if necessary, then dry it thoroughly immediately to prevent rust. Applying a light coat of oil after drying will keep the seasoning in top condition.
The handles are sturdy and designed for secure handling, but because they are integrated into the cast iron body, they will become hot during cooking. Always use oven mitts or a handle cover when moving the skillet.
