The 5-ply stainless steel sauté pan is an essential tool for any culinary enthusiast. With a generous capacity of four quarts, this pan is perfect for preparing large meals such as a whole chicken's worth of thighs, allowing you to cook without overcrowding. Its wide base is designed for optimal browning, while the straight sides effectively retain liquids, making it ideal for various cooking techniques. The uncoated stainless steel surface permits the creation of rich fond, perfect for deglazing and enhancing flavors.

What It Is For

This versatile sauté pan excels in braising, shallow frying, and one-pan dinners, allowing you to sear ingredients before finishing them in sauce. With five bonded layers that ensure even heating from base to sidewalls, the 5-ply stainless steel sauté pan guarantees precise and consistent cooking temperatures. It can withstand oven heat up to 500°F, surpassing the limits of many coated pans.

Getting the Best From Stainless

To achieve the best results with the 5-ply stainless steel sauté pan, start by preheating the empty pan, then add oil followed by your choice of food. Initially, proteins may stick, but they will release naturally once a crust has formed. It’s vital to allow the food to cook without disruption during this stage. Since the sauté pan is uncoated, metal utensils are perfectly safe to use. Any residue from stuck-on food can be easily addressed with deglazing instead of scrubbing. For maintenance, allow your pan to cool before washing and use a soft sponge or non-scratch pad. Periodically, Bar Keepers Friend can be used to restore the pan's shine when it starts to dull.
