Blued for initial seasoning and a protective, beautiful patina, our pan transforms over time into a slick high-performance cooking surface. Follow our simple seasoning instructions to unlock its full potential and enjoy effortless cooking.

 

On the Stovetop

Step 1: Wash & Dry

Clean your new pan with soap and water to remove any beeswax/mineral oil, then dry thoroughly. For re-seasoning, skip the soap.

Step 2: Preheat & Oil

Heat the pan on medium heat for 1 minute, then apply a thin layer of high smoke point oil (e.g., grapeseed, flaxseed, or vegetable) over entire pan. Spread another ½ tablespoon of oil inside the pan and along its walls.

Step 3: Heat It Up

Heat the pan until the oil starts to smoke. Remove excess oil and then spread the remaining oil evenly with a paper towel. Be cautious as the pan will be hot. Continue spreading oil until the surface is dry with no visible oil. Heat for an additional 30 seconds and let it smoke.

Step 4: Cool It

Let the pan cool. The surface should feel dry and slick. If it’s sticky, there’s too much oil–wipe off excess oil and reheat. Repeat this step until the surface is smooth and dry.

Step 5: Ready to Cook

Your pan is now ready! Build seasoning naturally with regular use for even better nonstick performance.

In the Oven

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Set your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Step 2: Wash & Dry

Wash the pan with mild soap to remove any beeswax/mineral oil, then dry thoroughly. For re-seasoning, skip the soap.

Step 3: Preheat & Oil

Heat the pan on medium heat on stovetop for 1 minute, then apply a thin layer of high smoke point oil (e.g., grapeseed, flaxseed, or vegetable) over entire pan. Wipe off excess oil with a paper towel until the pan appears nearly dry.

Step 4: Bake the Pan

Place the pan upside down on the oven rack with a baking sheet underneath to catch drips. Bake for 1 hour.

Step 5: Cool Down

Turn off the oven and let the pan cool inside.

Step 6: Repeat if Necessary

For the best results, repeat this process 2–3 times to build a strong seasoning layer.

Your pan is now seasoned and ready for use. Over time, it will develop a natural patina, enhancing its nonstick performance with every meal.
