Our tips for use and care

Before using the pan for the first time, it must be tumbled. This guarantees a long-lasting, naturally non-stick pan.

Here's how to do it:

1. Clean the pan with hot soapy water, rinse well and dry thoroughly.
2. Pour 1mm of vegetable oil (such as sunflower oil) into the bottom of the pan, distributing it evenly.
3. Heat to 3/4 of maximum power, until light smoke appears.
4. Turn off the heat, allow to cool, then wipe off excess oil with paper towel.
5. Heat the pan again for 2 minutes

This protective film will develop with use, making the pan more and more durable and resistant.

Daily care:

• Never use soap or the dishwasher

• with hot water immediately after use

• with a non-abrasive sponge or soft brush if necessary
• Dry thoroughly immediately after washing
• Apply a thin coat of oil before storing to prevent oxidation

With these simple gestures, your frying pan will be with you for years to come, making perfect, gourmet crêpes!
