Mauviel M'Steel Black Carbon Nonstick Frying Pan, 14.2-in, Made in France

Mauviel, the renowned copper cookware manufacturer in France, presents M'steel, a collection of frying pans and crepe pans made of extra thick Black Steel with riveted steel handles. The Black Steel, more commonly known as carbon steel, is an excellent heat conductor and is incredibly durable, able to withstand high temperatures and allowing for longer preheating and excellent searing. M'steel is designed for use on all cooktops, including induction, and is safe to use with metal utensils.

Before using for the first time, it is recommended to clean the pan with very hot water to remove the beeswax coating that is used to prevent rust and save time when seasoning. If wax residue is noticed upon first use, a paper towel can be used to wipe the pan clean. To season the pan, cover the bottom with flavorless oil and heat for 5 minutes, then allow the pan to cool before draining the oil and wiping it clean with paper towels. This process should be repeated a second time to build up a natural nonstick property.

After each use, the pan should be washed in hot water, wiped with a soft sponge, and thoroughly dried. It is important not to use dish soap and to leave the black layer that forms on the bottom of the pan, as it will create a non-stick surface over time. Additionally, the pan should be thoroughly dried to prevent rust and stored in a dry area.
