de Buyer Blue Steel Pizza Pan on Food52

May 18,2024

This carbon-steel pizza tray from de Buyer turns out crispy-golden crust. (It's also a no-brainer for tarts, quiches, puff pastry, and even roasted veg.).
Some call it a pizza pan, others a pizza tray, but we think the term “overachiever” is much more fitting. This hotshot turns out crispy-golden crust, to be sure, but it’s also a no-brainer for tarts, quiches, puff pastry, or even roasted veg. It’s blue steel through and through, which distributes heat like a champ and gets darker—not to mention more nonstick—with every use. Go for perforated if you wanna maximize airflow for extra crispiness, or get it without holes if you prefer a solid cooking surface.

How to Treat and Season Blue Steel Pizza Pans

Mineral B Element Omelette pans have a specific rounded side, designed especially for flipping omelets and sliding them easily onto plates. It has a long iron handle that is firmly fastened with rivets. The fry pan becomes naturally non-stick the more it is used thanks to the seasoning process. Iron reaches high temperatures and caramelizes the juices, making it the ideal material to make delicious omelets that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
