The Le Creuset Toughened Non-Stick Sauté Pan with Glass Lid is built for throwing together fast, tasty, healthy dishes.

Care
- Before first use: Wash in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
- While cooking: Use Le Creuset silicone, wood or heat-resistant plastic tools where possible. Metal utensils can be used with care, but avoid scraping or knocking them on the rim. Never use hand-held electric beaters, blenders, knives or sharp tools inside the pan.
- Fat-free cooking: Preheat on medium heat for around 2 minutes before adding food. Don't leave the pan unattended or let the dry surface overheat.
- Induction hobs: Avoid the 'boost' function, which is intended for rapidly heating large volumes of water rather than cooking.
- Glass hobs: Never slide the pan across a glass-topped hob, as this can damage both the base and the glass. Always lift it on, off, or across the surface.
- Oven use: Place on a shelf or rack rather than the oven floor, which can increase cooking temperature and lead to damage.
- Washing: We recommend handwashing rather than the dishwasher, to help the non-stick surface last longer. Cool the pan for a few minutes before cleaning, and avoid plunging it into cold water while hot.
