Mauviel M'Steel Steel Frypan with Steel Handles - 12.48''- 3.4 Qt

The Mauviel M’STEEL collection is crafted from 100% natural carbon steel, designed for chefs who demand powerful searing performance and professional-grade durability. Black carbon steel heats extremely quickly and distributes heat efficiently, making it the ideal material for searing, browning, grilling, and roasting.

Built for high-heat cooking, M’STEEL enhances flavors and develops exceptional caramelization. Thanks to its rapid conductivity, it excels at intense cooking techniques, though it is less suited for long simmering preparations. Over time, the pan develops a natural nonstick patina that improves with each use.
