cast iron

[Zeno Marx]

Can anyone identify the maker of this cast iron skillet? I'm hoping someone is familiar with that logo cast into the helper handle nearest in this photo.

Nevermind, I figured it out. It's a $200+ Le Creuset frying pan. I was impressed with how smooth the casting is compared to something like a Lodge, but at 7Xs the price, it better be far higher quality

Below is my favorite frying pan for searing meats.
De Buyer - Frypan - Mineral B Element 12½''. $70.00.
It's very heavy and regardless of what the instructions are, it must be cured and treated as you'd prepare cast iron.

• Made of 99% iron, a natural mineral material
• Signature beeswax finish protects against oxidation
• Traditional French handle
• Made in France
• Origin France guaranteed
