de Buyer Choc B Bois Induction Pan 20 cm with Non-Stick Coating - Aluminum
Small pan with non-stick coating from the de Buyer Choc B Bois series. This pan has a diameter of 20 cm at the top edge, a base of 12 cm, and a total height of 3.8 cm (without handle). Unlike the Choc Resto pans with completely slanted sidewalls, the pan walls here are rounded and straight up. This allows almost any lid with the same diameter to fit on this pan.
The body of the Choc B Bois pans is made of 4 mm thick and dimensionally stable aluminum. Aluminum is a very good heat conductor that ensures quick and even heating. If you increase or decrease the energy supply, this will be quickly transferred to the interior. And that on all stovetops, thanks to a magnetic base plate, also on induction fields.
Speaking of the pan interior: the pan is coated on the inside with a reinforced, therefore robust non-stick coating based on PTFE, which prevents food from coming into contact with the aluminum. The non-stick coating is heat-resistant up to 250° Celsius and has a high abrasion resistance. With the non-stick coating, you can cook with little to no oil. Although the non-stick coating is equipped to withstand scratches, which are not a big deal and can hardly be avoided. However, to prevent deep scratches, please avoid sharp-edged turners and use silicone or wooden kitchen utensils instead.
Bois means wood in French and refers to the handles. 5 mm thick wooden handle scales are riveted to the proven band steel handles at the top and bottom. This improves the grip feeling and you can grip the pan far forward near the body without having to worry about hot handles. The handle itself is steeply bent upwards in the French style. This means that it does not take up any space on the stove from other pans and pots.
The wooden handle scales are beautiful, but limit the use in the oven. The B Bois may (if at all) only be placed in the oven for a short time, i.e. a maximum of 10 minutes, and at a maximum of 200° Celsius. Too long and too high heat will dry out the wood and the handle scales will crack. You also must not clean them in the dishwasher. To be honest, you should always clean pans with non-stick coating by hand. This is much faster and you extend the life of the non-stick coating.
De Buyer has once again succeeded in a successful further development with the B Bois variant. They are fun to use and also look good. We don't really need to talk about the quality, because it is very high-quality, as always with de Buyer!
Bois bedeutet aus dem Französischen übersetzt Holz und bezieht sich auf die Griffe. An den bewährten Bandstahlgriffen wurden oben und unten 5 mm dicke Holzgriffschalen genietet. Das verbessert das Griffgefühl und du kannst die Pfanne weit vorne in der Nähe der Korpusse anfassen, ohne Dir Sorgen um heiße Griffe machen zu müssen. Der Stiel an sich ist nach französischer Art steil nach oben gebogen. Dadurch nimmer er etwaigen anderen Pfannen und Töpfen nicht den Platz auf dem Herd weg.
Die Holzgriffschalen sind wunderschön, schränken aber die Nutzung im Backofen ein. Die B Bois dürfen (wenn überhaupt) nur kurzzeitig, also maximal für 10 Minuten, und bei maximal 200° Celsius in den Backofen gestellt werden. Zu lange und zu hohe Hitze wird das Holz austrocknen und die Griffschalen werden reißen. Außerdem darfst du sie nicht in der Spülmaschine reinigen. Um ehrlich zu sein, solltest du Pfannen mit Antihaftbeschichtung sowieso von Hand reinigen. Das geht um einiges schneller und Du verlängerst die Lebensdauer der Antihaftbeschichtung.
De Buyer ist mit der B Bois Variante wieder mal eine gelungene Weiterentwicklung gelungen. Sie machen Spaß in der Anwendung und sehen auch noch gut aus. Über die Qualität brauchen wir eigentlich nicht weiter reden, denn diese ist à la de Buyer: sehr hochwertig!
