GRANMELIER ELI Forged High-Iron Carbon Steel Frying Pan 20 cm / 8 in

Hand-forged for everyday cooking with a wilder side, the GRANMELIER Forge ELI 8 in / 20 cm Frying Pan pairs a smooth, forged cooking floor with rough, hammered walls for the best of both worlds. The body is forged from a single piece of 3 mm-thick carbon steel - an excellent material for frying pans that is a type of high-purity industrial iron with an extremely low carbon content (over 99.5% pure iron), and a hand-forged steel handle is riveted on with two solid rivets. Every pan is unique, carrying its own hammer texture, forge marks and the stamped GRANMELIER mark. Seasoned over time, the smooth base develops a natural non-stick patina that handles eggs and delicate foods more easily than a fully textured surface.

• Hand-forged from high-iron carbon steel: a superb frying-pan material that is a type of high-purity industrial iron with an extremely low carbon content (over 99.5% pure iron), forged from a single 3 mm sheet with a hand-forged riveted handle - tougher than rolled pans, yet lighter and faster to heat than cast iron.
• Smooth floor, forged walls: a smooth, even cooking base for browning, eggs and everyday frying, framed by rough hand-forged walls - more forgiving with delicate foods than a fully textured pan once seasoned.
• Cooks on any heat source: gas, electric, ceramic, induction and the open fire of a grill, fire pit or campsite, plus fully oven-safe with no plastic parts. On induction, heat up gradually to avoid warping.
• Natural non-stick, no coatings: develops a slick patina through use instead of chemical coatings, so it is metal-utensil and high-heat safe. It needs initial seasoning and a light oiling after each wash to stay rust-free.
• Hanging-hole handle, hang to store: the forged handle has a punched hole so you can hang the pan from a hook or rail - an heirloom-grade skillet that only improves with age.

Equally at home over open flames or on the kitchen hob, the GRANMELIER Forge ELI is made for cooks who want forged carbon steel with everyday versatility. Its compact 20 cm / 8 in size is perfect for fried eggs, a single steak or chop, sausages, sides and tapas-style portions for one. Season it before first use and keep it lightly oiled - with a little care it only gets better with time.
