What are the identifying dimensions and specifications for SKU 062005?
SKU 062005 is the 11 3/4-inch size in Matfer Bourgeat USA’s current product table. The table lists a 4 3/8-inch height, 11 5/8-inch diameter, 4.88-pound weight, lifetime warranty, and barcode 3334490620057. The Black Steel guide gives additional cooking-surface details for this size.
What must be done before cooking with this carbon-steel pan?
Remove the factory protective vegetable-oil coating before seasoning. Matfer’s guide says to wash the pan thoroughly with soap and warm water, using a sponge or bristle brush. It then describes seasoning with potato skins, oil, and salt for 15 minutes over medium-high heat, followed by wiping out the pan; the seasoning step can be repeated before cooking.
How does the pan’s seasoning develop over time?
Seasoning bonds oil to the steel to create a protective cooking surface. Matfer says the first seasoning may produce a light brown hue, while later use can make the surface look spotty, streaky, or darker in places. Continued cooking and proper maintenance gradually develop a more consistent black patina across the pan.
Can SKU 062005 be used on induction and in the oven?
Yes. Matfer Bourgeat USA describes the Black Carbon Steel Frying Pan as oven safe and suitable for high-heat cooking. Its product page also states that the pan is compatible with all hob types, including induction, so the listed cooktop compatibility is not limited to gas or conventional electric burners.
What warranty applies to this Matfer Bourgeat pan?
Matfer Bourgeat USA states that Black Steel Cookware is covered by a limited lifetime warranty. The warranty covers faulty construction or materials when the product is used in normal home or commercial kitchen environments, subject to the stated exclusions. Claims require the defective product and a copy of the authorized-dealer invoice, and return freight is the customer’s responsibility.
