what is the ideal hob temperature in centigrade for heating the pan for a thick beef steak

Goodmorning, the manufacturer suggest to use the pan cooking with a steady, low to medium heat to take care of your cast iron and enjoy delicious results. Kind regards, Tiziana Shop Decor Team

It states to be used at medium temp so how do you manage to get it hot enough to sear steak

Hi, Thank you for your question. Cooking on a medium or low heat gets the best results — even for frying and searing. Let the product heat up gradually for great tasting food that’s cooked evenly. If you do need to use a higher heat, lower the setting once the desired heat has been reached.

I don't see any rubber grip on the handle... Doesn't it make the handle hot while you cook?

Yes it does get hot eventually but if it's a griddle pan by le creuset your after may I suggest Le Creuset Toughened Non-Stick Ribbed Square Grill - 28 cm at a lot cheaper price and it's fantastic and handles stay cool
