Skeppshult Professional Cast Iron & Stainless Steel Frying Pan

Description

Use Skeppshult’s professional cast iron and stainless steel frying pan to make kimchi pancakes, frilly fried eggs or flatbreads.

A pre-seasoning of canola oil helps protect the iron, while a self-ventilating stainless steel handle maintains a cool temperature. With its non-stick coating, you can serve from pan to plate with ease.

If you want a more classic design, that isn’t oven-safe, you can buy the same pan with a beech wood handle here

Swedish company Skeppshult (pronounced ‘hep-salt’) has been making cast iron products by hand since 1906. The process starts with raw iron, which is heated to a searing 1,500°C in a furnace. Then the molten metal is cast into special moulds made from sand, which can withstand the extreme temperatures.

Sand moulds can only be used once, and therefore each product is unique – no two items are the same. Each sand mould is recycled and used for another product. Skeppshult seasons its cast iron with rapeseed oil (also called canola oil) from Österlen to protect it from damage. This also gives the cast iron its natural non-stick properties.

Skeppshult’s cast iron is an environmentally friendly alternative to plastic-coated aluminium pans.
