## Long description

De Buyer Alchimy conical rondel 16 cm is a compact carbon steel saucepan designed for professional stovetop tasks that require precise temperature control. The rounded conical shape and sturdy construction ensure fast, even heat distribution and efficient reduction of liquids. This small saucepan is suitable for melting, warming, preparing sauces and custards, and small-batch cooking where quick response to heat changes is required. The carbon steel provides durability and develops a natural patina with use, improving release and corrosion resistance over time.
Advantages
The carbon steel construction offers excellent heat conductivity and rapid response to changes in burner intensity, helping to avoid uneven cooking. The conical, rounded profile concentrates liquids toward the centre for controlled reduction and smooth stirring. Lightweight compared with thicker cast-iron alternatives, this rondel is easier to manoeuvre for pouring and finishing sauces. The Alchimy finish forms a seasoned layer with regular use, increasing non-stick properties without synthetic coatings. The design suits professional kitchen workflows while remaining accessible for home cooks.
Suitable for
 Reducing and finishing sauces
 Melting butter, chocolate, or small amounts of cheese
 Preparing custards, crème anglaise and delicate creams
 Reheating small portions and preparing reductions
 Small-batch stovetop tasks requiring precise temperature control
Key specifications
 Material: carbon steel
 Shape: conical, rounded rondel
 Diameter: 16 cm
 Intended use: stovetop cooking on gas and electric hobs
 Surface: develops seasoned patina with use
How to use
Before first use, wash the saucepan in warm water and dry thoroughly. Season the carbon steel by heating a thin layer of oil in the pan until it smokes lightly, then allow to cool and wipe away excess. Use medium to low heat for delicate tasks; the material reacts quickly so adjust flame or power to avoid overheating. Stir sauces continuously when reducing to prevent sticking. After use, clean with warm water and a soft brush; avoid harsh detergents that remove the seasoned layer. Dry immediately and apply a light coat of oil to protect the surface and maintain the patina.
Usage recommendations
 For best results, preheat gradually and monitor heat closely when preparing delicate sauces or melting chocolate. Regular seasoning and gentle cleaning will extend the life of the carbon steel and improve its release properties over time.
