Like post household, I've lalways had non-stick frying pan for the obvious reason. Nonetheless, they never last for more than couple of years despite using the correct utensils and following the correct cleaning instruction. The non-stick layer would begin to fade and eventually it goes into the bin. I've tried all the famous and not-so-we'll-known brands but, in my opinion, they are much the same.
When it was time to look for a replacement pan, I wanted to try something different, perhaps an alternative to non-stick. The options are endless: stainless steel, ceramic, copper, you name it. Then I came across de Buyer, a French brand that's has been manufacturing gastronomy cookware since the early 19th century (must say something if they're still standing 2 centuries later?). They have a wide range of product, and after much research, I've finally gone for the Mineral B range.
The frying pan from this mange is made with 99% pure iron with beeswax finishing, and is Eco and environmental friendly because it has not added chemical.
The packaging is simple and elegant.
Apparently the more it is used and the darker the pan becomes, the better it is for the nonstick properties. This range may not be for those who likes to keep their cookware squeaky clean!
"Made in France" - always gives a level of quality reassurance.
A cute engraved bee logo in the centre of the pan.
I really cannot wait to put this frying pan through a good test and see if it lives up to its name! :D
