FB Kitchenware's NeroSteel nitrided iron pan is designed for those who accept no compromises in the kitchen. Handcrafted in Italy from 2.5 mm black iron subjected to an advanced nitriding treatment, this pan uniquely combines tradition and innovation. Nitriding is a process that hardens the iron surface, making it highly resistant to corrosion, wear, and scratches, and also improving its natural non-stick properties over time. This means that each use is not only more effective but also helps the pan itself evolve, making it increasingly high-performing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to season them before use?
It depends on the line. The NeroSteel, nitrided, develops its natural non-stick quality simply by cooking, with no ritual. The SeasonedSteel arrives pre-treated and its patina builds up with use. The BeSteel is natural iron and needs seasoning the first time: we explain how in the guide.
Can I use them on induction?
Yes. All our iron pans work on induction, gas, ceramic glass, electric hobs and in the oven.
Do iron pans rust?
The NeroSteel, in nitrided iron, resists rust. The BeSteel and SeasonedSteel are made of natural iron: they can oxidise if left wet, but simply drying them after washing and applying a thin layer of oil is enough. With basic care it's not an issue.
How do I wash them?
Hot water and a sponge, without harsh detergent and without the dishwasher. Dry them right away: thirty seconds and they're ready for the next use.
Can I cook tomato or acidic foods in them?
Yes, once the pan has built up its patina. During the first few uses it's better to favour meat, vegetables and frying, which strengthen it.
How long do they last?
A lifetime, and they improve with use: the patina that forms as you cook makes them more and more non-stick. These are pans you pass down.
