Overview
Not a coated nonstick pan, this de Buyer crepe pan is bare metal that becomes naturally non-stick through culottage. It is a circular pan with a metal handle, made in France and described as heavy-quality for making crepes.
Culottage means the non-stick surface is built by the cook rather than sprayed on, and the pan avoids synthetic coatings altogether. It suits every heat source the listing names. Cleaning is by hand only, and the unit on the diameter is missing.
Who it's for
Home cooks making crepes and pancakes who are willing to season and care for a metal pan by hand. Anyone expecting a ready coating, or who needs the diameter in inches confirmed, should look at another listing.
Pros and cons
- No synthetic coating
- Naturally non-stick through culottage
- Heavy metal construction
- Made in France
- Hand wash only
- Diameter unit not stated
- Needs culottage before it releases well
Performance notes
Culottage forms a seasoned layer on the bare metal that gives the pan its non-stick behavior, so results improve as the layer builds up. Heavy metal spreads and holds heat for even crepe browning on a hob. The listing names induction, gas and electric compatibility.
