Key benefits — why you need this pan One pan for many dishes: designed for frying, braising, deep frying, stewing and more so you can cover most everyday and professional cooking tasks with a single tool. Reliable heat control and flavor retention: wide flat bottom and thick base give fast, even heat distribution, minimizing hot spots so food cooks uniformly and keeps more flavor and nutrients. Durable, naturally improving cooking surface: uncoated iron forms a natural nonstick patina with proper seasoning, improving release and longevity without synthetic coatings. Safer, comfortable handling: handforged wooden handle is ergonomically shaped and stays cool during cooking, reducing the risk of burns while offering a chipresistant, retro look. Features and practical value Function: deep pot design with thin walls for rapid heat transfer and efficient cooking; suitable for searing, shallow or deep frying, slow braises and simmered stews. Compatibility: works on gas, induction and in the oven, making it useful in home kitchens and professional settings. Material: smooth, uncoated iron surface that develops a durable, natural nonstick patina over time with seasoning. Design: wide flat bottom and thick base for quick, even conduction across the cooking surface; deep pot walls help contain liquids and splatter. How it solves common cooking problems Uneven heating: thick base and flat bottom reduce hot spots so food cooks evenly across the surface. Sticking and coating wear: natural seasoning creates a nonstick layer that gets better with use, avoiding peeling or flaking of synthetic coatings. Handle heat and safety: the handforged wooden handle stays cool to the touch and is shaped for a secure grip, lowering the chance of slips or burns during transfer. Versatility across ranges: compatible with gas, induction and oven use so you don't need different pans for different burners or finishing in the oven. Use scenarios Weeknight sear and oven finish: Sear a steak on the stovetop for a crisp crust, then transfer the pan to the oven to finish cooking through. Deepfry and everyday frying: Use the deep pot shape for frying chicken or tempura; the wide bottom ensures even oil temperature and stable frying. Long braise or stew: Brown ingredients on the stovetop, then simmer or braise slowly on induction or in the oven for tender results. Care notes Season the uncoated iron regularly to build and maintain the natural nonstick patina. Hand wash and dry promptly to prevent rust; reapply oil after cleaning as needed. Handle design resists chipping, but the wooden handle with basic care to extend life and appearance. Practical, durable, and versatile — this iron pan combines efficient heat performance, a longlasting cooking surface, and a cool, ergonomic wooden handle to meet both home and professional needs.
