How brand you insert a sheet metal pan?
A steel skillet is 99% made of iron, an entirely natural product. So it is a durable pan that can last a long time. A sheet steel pan you have to burn in yourself, which creates a natural non-stick coating. It is very important that this is done carefully
These pans can take the heat well and sear meat beautifully. Vegetables also retain their vitamins better when processed at high temperatures. Check whether this pan can also be used on induction; not all sheet steel pans are suitable for this. This is partly due to the weight of the pan.
Induction cooking with sheet steel
You can burn in a sheet steel skillet in two different ways, using the oven and the stove. You can do this only if there are no wooden or plastic handles on the pan. The pan must be made entirely of sheet steel.
Enamelled steel
There is also Enamelled sheet steel where there is a protective layer of molten glass. So this pan you do not need to burn in and is easy to clean.
Features
A characteristic of these pans is that the steel is discolored. An intensively used steel pan is therefore an "ugly" pan with lots of dark discoloration. The pans get better the more you use them. They also remain "greasy" to the touch, but that is just fine.
Non-stick coating reset
If you did end up using dish soap and heavy cleaning products, you need to reset the non-stick coating (seasoning). This means cleaning your pan completely first and then repeating the searing process again. By doing so, you create good non-stick coating again.
Oven
Roadmap
Turn on the oven to 180 °C
Clean the pan well and dry it carefully
Pour a thin layer of low-flavor, high-smoking oil (e.g. sunflower oil) into the pan and spread it out with kitchen paper and tongs.
Be careful because the pan is hot. Apply several thin layers, this will create a better non-stick coating
Put the pan upside down in the oven and put aluminum foil on the bottom (so the dripping oil does not get on the bottom) This is only possible if the pan is completely made of sheet steel
Leave the pan in the oven for 1 hour
Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool, smear any remaining oil with kitchen paper still in the pan
Oven
Step -by -step plan
Clean the pan well and dry it carefully
Put the pan on the heat and ensure that it warms evenly. Not too hot, about 100 ° C
Pour a thin layer of oil with little taste and a high smoking point (eg sunflower oil) in the pan and spread it with a kitchen paper and a tongs.
Watch out, because the pan is warm. Apply several thin layers, this creates a better non -stick coating
Gradually heat the pan more, always slightly increasing the temperature. Don't be shocked when there are dark spots. Hold the high temperature for a few minutes and let the whole thing be crushed until the pan is dry.
Then let the whole pan cool and clean it with a brush. Do not use washing -up liquid, then remove the non -stick coating. Rub the remaining oil (which does not go out when you empty it) in the pan with kitchen paper.
Repeat this process of rubbing and burning 5 times for an optimal result.
