How to care for the de Buyer Mineral B Loqy pan

Unwrap the pan from the original packaging and sponge under hot running water, remove the wax from the outside of the pan to avoid contaminating the hob, then dry the pan. Turn the hob on to half power (use a lower temperature for induction) and place the pan on it. Pour about 1-2 mm of oil into the pan and let it heat until the oil starts to smoke = the burning is done (during the burning, turn the pan to get the oil on the inner sides, the pan will start to darken on the bottom in places). Let the pan cool and wipe off the remaining oil with a napkin or cloth,do not wash to keep the protective film and prevent rust, the pan is ready to use. Store in a dry place, remembering to always keep the entire surface of the pan oiled. Use detergents only rarely and never put the pan in the dishwasher. The gradual darkening of the pan is natural, ensuring a better non-stick surface. Any rust that may have formed can be removed with the rough side of a sponge and then oiled.
