Review: Cute AND Functional (for cooking small items) - I bought this pan MOSTLY because it's just so darn cute and it looked like it would the perfect size for an egg or two. By the way, it IS the perfect size for JUST an egg or two (at the most). You really can't cook much more than two large eggs in the pan and even two eggs are a bit crowded, but they will fit. Raw carbon steel and raw cast iron pans are far superior over any other non-stick pan on the market. I know, this is bold statement, and there are folks out there that would not agree with me, but carbon steel and cast iron pans with not only last a lifetime but can be handed down for generations. I'd like to see another non-stick pan that could come close to that duration. Simply put, there isn't one. Yes, carbon steel and cast irons pans require a little up front work, since they need to be seasoned, but this can be easily accomplished in an oven or on the stove-top. This little pan is no exception, it will require seasoning before it's used. Take the time to learn to season these types of pans. Given a LITTLE bit of patience and time the non-stick properties of a proper seasoning will be better then replacing plastic coated "non-stick" pans over and over and over again. I've seen a few reviews that state this pan is too small to use on gas stove-tops. This simply isn't true. We are using ours quite happily on our gas stove. Having said that, there are probably SOME stoves that this pan is too small for so be careful of that. I'd suggest measuring the diameter of the flame ring on your stove before buying this pan. The outside, bottom of the pan is about 10mm [4 inches]. The flame ring of your burner should be at least bit smaller than this for proper heating. Another comment I've noticed in some reviews is the cooking surface is stamped with a two b's. This is true of my pan as well. I'm not sure why someone at de Buyer thought this would be a good idea, but I agree with the other reviewers that this is less than ideal at best and at worst, a potential area for food to stick. I seasoned my pan any way and sure enough my morning eggs were sticking to that area without fail. I thought of sanding the area to make it flat again, but that damage quite a bit of the seasoning I had just applied a few days before. Instead, I used the "flat" side of a small ball peen hammer and lots of gentle taps to flatten the b's smooth again. This took about 2-3 minutes (5 at the most). Yes, I have to build up the seasoning again but that will happen with regular day to day cooking. Even the third day after flattening the b's the eggs are sticking less. I've been cooking on cast iron and carbon steel pans for many (many) years and I love them. It takes a bit time to make them non-stick, but once this happens you don't have to use special (plastic) utensils to move your food around. Nearly all of my utensils are stainless steel and wood and yes, I use the stainless steel utensils in my pans a LOT. If you want an cute pan for cooking an egg, this one perfect for that. You could probably cook a few small breakfast sausage links or a single sausage patty in this pan, but I haven't tried that yet. If you're thinking of cooking a burger in this pan, I'd be careful of the size burger you intend to cook, but it is possible. This is a great little pan that I would certainly recommend to anyone.
Review: Adorable, functional, and not the best for gas stoves - I love this cute little pan. It makes perfect eggs for sandwiches: a bit big for muffins and just right for toast. I find it to be much easier to use than rings, and like all de Buyer pans, it's an amazing pan. It conducts heat, retains heat, and seasons nicely. The compact size exceeds the design limits for most stoves. It's not an issue for induction, as the technology involves a smooth flat surface that only heats the pan on top. Gas has grates with holes/spaces, and this can barely fit flat, but moving a cm can see it lean/fall into the flame. Additionally the flame on most burners has a diameter equal to or greater than that of this pan, which leads to flames along the sides. Coils/electric disks don't have the issue of balance, but they too have a heat source that may be too big. So, I love this pan, and I can make it work on my range. If I had an induction cooktop, it would work much better.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hello, Can someone explain the dimensions of this product 4.7 x 2 x 0.8 in? Thanks very much! Cant seem to figure out what the 2 x 0.8 is**
A: 2 is the depth of the pan .(sides ) 0.8 is the thickness of the medal. 0.8 is very good !

**Q: What is the diameter of the flat interior bottom of the 4.7" pan?**
A: The flat interior appears to be approximately 4" in diameter, perhaps slightly more.  The edges do not flare out a great deal.  I use this pan to make eggs.  After seasoning, it is nonstick.  It is a great pan.  You also do not have to fuss with it as much as cast iron.

**Q: what are the instructions for seasoning the pan?**
A: Follow the Mineral B directions for seasoning the pan.  It takes a while to get to "non stick" but it's worth it.

**Q: Is there a lid available?**
A: Not a factory lid but, anything of a similar size will work.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality, size is a good addition to the collection
*by Z***C on October 21, 2024*

First, anyone who complains about these or any other carbon pans not being non-stick or rusting doesn’t know how to cook. Sorry to be blunt but it’s the truth. It’s not magic - it’s carbon steel. If you season it properly and oil it properly, it WILL be non-stick and will NOT rust. So if that’s not the case for some people, it means they’re not doing either of the above correctly and most likely don’t have a grasp of temperature control while cooking. So my advice to anyone reading reviews is to disregard any poor reviews about rust or things sticking. If that’s a concern of yours, go with Teflon and save yourself a headache. That being said, for carbon steel pans, reviews that are valid should be around thickness, hot spots, weight, size, etc. This is a high quality carbon pan that won’t warp because the steel is relatively thick compared to some others. The size is interesting. Not an every day pan for me, but it’s been fun experimenting with eggs - keeps the size uniform for breakfast sandwiches. I haven’t tried pancakes yet but could see doing it on occasion. Also for frying up some hot peppers and single portions of other. vegetables Overall a very well made pan. You just need to know how to cook with and care for carbon steel.
