- Crafted from virgin iron ore using a blend of traditional methods and modern DISA casting technology, this 5.1-inch mini sauce pan delivers exceptional durability and heat retention. - The unique casting process results in an unpolished surface with natural air blisters and shallow pits, providing a distinctive charm and enhancing the pan's non-stick properties over time. - Free from chemical coatings, the pan utilizes a vegetable oil carbonization process to prevent rust, ensuring a safe cooking experience. - Pre-use maintenance is essential: wash the pan with detergent, dry thoroughly, boil water in it for 2 minutes, and then coat the surface with oil for optimal performance. - After each use, avoid chemical cleaners to preserve the developing non-stick layer. Rinse, dry, and apply a thin layer of oil to maintain its quality. If rust appears, simply follow the initial care instructions again. - The natural fine particles on the pan's surface minimize food contact, promoting a non-stick effect. The thickened bottom ensures excellent heat conduction, fast heating, and energy efficiency, minimizing oily smoke. - Size: 5.1 inches x 12 inches x 2 inches. Weight: 1.7 lbs.
