Just used this pan for the first time, and every crepe came out perfectly. The instructions said to brown some vegetable peelings in it before using it the first time, then clean with hot water and NO soap. I did this, and if anything the pan outperformed non-stick ones I’m used to. By the way, the secret to making great crepes is to let the batter rest for an hour or more before cooking. A good way to dry non-stainless cookware like this is to put it back on the burner for a short time after washing. Highly recommended.

This is a great, authentic crepe pan. Be sure to season it exactly how the directions describe, and not to use dish soap to wash it (water on a wet cloth or paper towel is fine). It helps to get a crepe spatula to turn crepes when cooking with this pan, but you do not need a batter spreader. I recommend “Crepes” by Lou Siebert Pappas for her 3 basic crepe recipes and crepe making techniques, but note that the rest of the recipes in this book are very elaborate.

This pan is exactly as I hoped it would be. After the first few crepes (hadn’t made them in decades and needed to get a rhythm going), it was a breeze. Has a good feel to it…substantial but not heavy. Seemed weird to first fry potato peels in the pan, but I did it and the pan is non-stick now and cleans up beautifully. (Don’t be alarmed if the surface of the pan looks like it’s getting ruined with the potato peels. A good soaking in plain water and a soft dish brush will take care of that.)

This is a high quality blue steel pan for the crepe aficionado. Nothing sticks to this baby once properly seasoned (which is a very quick process). Enjoy!

Crepes are effortless to make with this pan. I don’t even bother with a crepe spreader or special spatula. The pan is small enough that it is easy to spread the batter by tilting the pan.
In regard to seasoning pans, I’ve found that saturated fats work better. As a vegetarian, I use coconut oil, which is slow to turn rancid.
