It's more durable than non-stick coatings and safe at higher temperatures. However, it requires more oil or butter and proper preheating technique to prevent sticking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWill food stick to this pan?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStainless steel is not non-stick, so food can stick if the pan isn't properly preheated or lacks sufficient fat. Preheat the pan on medium heat, add oil or butter, and let it heat until it shimmers before adding food. Protein will release naturally once it's properly seared - if it's sticking, it's not ready to turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat's the difference between a sauté pan and a frying pan?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSauté pans have straight sides and typically come with a lid, making them suitable for both searing and simmering. Frying pans have sloped sides for easy tossing and turning. The 24cm sauté pan's straight sides hold more liquid, making it versatile for dishes that start with searing and finish with sauce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use this on induction hobs?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the stainless steel construction makes it suitable for induction. Ensure you use an appropriately sized ring - the pan should cover most of the induction zone for the hob to recognise it.

The 24cm measurement is the diameter at the rim. The base will be slightly smaller due to the pan's construction. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow do I remove stuck-on food?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeglaze the warm pan with water, wine, or stock - the liquid will loosen stuck bits. For stubborn residue, soak in warm soapy water, then use a non-abrasive scrubber or Bar Keeper's Friend cleaner specifically designed for stainless steel.

Wash in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. You may optionally season the pan by rubbing a thin layer of vegetable or corn oil over the interior surface, heating it gently until the oil begins to smoke, then wiping clean with paper towels once cooled. This initial seasoning can improve early performance but isn't essential for stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooking technique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Preheat the pan on medium heat for 2-3 minutes before adding oil or butter. The pan is ready when a drop of water forms a ball and rolls across the surface. Add fat and let it heat until shimmering before adding food. Use medium to medium-high heat for most cooking - stainless steel is efficient and doesn't require maximum heat. Protein will release naturally when properly seared; if it's sticking firmly, it's not ready to turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor pan sauces:\u003c\/strong\u003e After cooking protein, don't wash away the fond (browned bits).

Don't plunge hot pans into cold water - thermal shock can warp even quality cookware. Wash in warm soapy water with a non-abrasive sponge. For stuck-on food, soak in warm water, then use Bar Keeper's Friend or a paste of bicarbonate of soda and water with a soft cloth. The pan is dishwasher safe, though hand washing preserves the polished finish longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAvoid:\u003c\/strong\u003e Leaving the empty pan over high heat (can cause discolouration), thermal shock from cold water on hot pans (can cause warping), adding salt directly to the dry pan surface (dissolve it in liquid first), using metal scouring pads or harsh abrasives (can scratch the surface), using the boost function on induction hobs except for boiling water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemoving discolouration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rainbow-coloured heat marks or white calcium deposits are harmless.

Thin pans develop areas of intense heat that cause sticking and burning despite non-stick coatings. The aluminium core in Le Creuset's construction conducts heat rapidly and distributes it evenly across the entire base, making the non-stick coating work properly whilst protecting it from heat damage. The stainless steel layers provide durability and hob compatibility, particularly important for induction cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe non-stick coating is engineered to resist metal utensils when used with care - occasional contact with metal spoons or spatulas won't damage it. However, Le Creuset recommends silicone, wooden, or heat-resistant plastic tools for maximum coating longevity. Never use knives, sharp implements, or electric beaters directly in the pan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCritical for non-stick longevity: use only low to medium heat. Non-stick coatings degrade when exposed to high temperatures, losing their properties and potentially releasing fumes.

This heat limitation protects your investment and ensures years of non-stick performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20cm size is specifically designed for omelettes - large enough for a proper 2-3 egg omelette yet small enough to maintain the curved shape whilst cooking.

It genuinely works automatically. The dual sensors monitor what you're cooking and adjust the machine's approach in real time. For tough cuts of meat, it uses pressure to tenderise. For delicate ingredients, it switches to slow cooking. You press once and the cooker figures out the best method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs the hands-free steam release actually safer than traditional pressure cookers? Yes. Traditional pressure cookers require you to carefully release steam manually, which risks scalding your hands if you're not precise. The hands-free auto release eliminates this entirely. The machine chooses the release method automatically based on what's inside, so safety is built into the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy does the ceramic bowl matter compared to standard stainless steel? Ceramic is naturally PFOA and PTFE free, whereas some non-stick coatings contain these chemicals that can leach at high heat. Ceramic also doesn't require seasoning and resists staining. It doubles as a serving bowl, so you can cook and serve in the same vessel without transferring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs the auto keep-warm function actually useful after cooking? Yes. After your food finishes cooking, the cooker automatically keeps it warm without further cooking it, so it's ready to serve whenever you're ready to eat. For families where people eat at different times, this removes the need to reheat later.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":22989023903802,"sku":"09601","price":179.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0072\/1875\/7690\/products\/sage-the-fast-slow-pro-cooker-397.jpg?v=1633429113"},{"product_id":"le-creuset-signature-stainless-steel-saute-pan-with-lid-24cm","title":"Le Creuset Signature Stainless Steel Sauté Pan with Lid 24cm","description":"\u003cstyle\u003e\nbody {\n  font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, sans-serif;\n  line-height: 1.6;\n  color: #333;\n  font-size: 16px;\n  margin: 0;\n  padding: 0;\n}\n\n.page-wrapper {\n  width: 100%;\n  margin: 0;\n  padding: 0;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n}\n\nh2 {\n  color: #2c5530;\n  font-size: 22px;\n  margin-top: 20px;\n  margin-bottom: 15px;\n}\n\nh3 {\n  color: #2c5530;\n  font-size: 18px;\n  margin-top: 20px;\n  margin-bottom: 15px;\n}\n\nh4 {\n  color: #2c5530;\n  font-size: 16px;\n  margin-top: 15px;\n  margin-bottom: 10px;\n}\n\np {\n  margin-bottom: 15px;\n}\n\nul {\n  padding-left: 20px;\n  margin-bottom: 15px;\n}\n\nli {\n  margin: 8px 0;\n}\n\na {\n  color: #2c5530;\n  text-decoration: underline;\n}\n\n.tldr-box {\n  background: #f8f9fa;\n  border-left: 4px solid #2c5530;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 5px;\n  margin-bottom: 15px;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.jump-links {\n  background: #e8f5e8;\n  border: 1px solid #2c5530;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 5px;\n  text-align: center;\n  margin: 15px 0;\n  font-size: 14px;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.jump-links a {\n  margin: 0 8px;\n  white-space: nowrap;\n}\n\n.qa-box {\n  background: #f0f8ff;\n  border-left: 4px solid #4169E1;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 8px;\n  margin: 20px 0;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.expert-box {\n  background: #fff9e6;\n  border-left: 4px solid #d4a017;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 8px;\n  margin: 20px 0;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.comparison-box {\n  background: #f0f8ff;\n  border-left: 4px solid #4169E1;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 5px;\n  margin: 15px 0;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.specs-box {\n  background: #f8f9fa;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 5px;\n  margin: 15px 0;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.trust-box {\n  background: #e8f5e8;\n  border: 1px solid #2c5530;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 8px;\n  margin: 15px 0;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.trust-box ul {\n  list-style: none;\n  padding-left: 0;\n}\n\n.trust-box li {\n  color: #2c5530;\n  font-weight: 500;\n  margin: 8px 0;\n}\n\n.care-box {\n  background: #f8f9fa;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 5px;\n  margin: 15px 0;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.sustainability-box {\n  background: #f0f8ff;\n  border-left: 4px solid #4169E1;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 5px;\n  margin: 15px 0;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.resources-box {\n  background: #f0f8ff;\n  padding: 15px;\n  border-radius: 8px;\n  margin: 20px 0;\n  border-left: 4px solid #4169E1;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\ndetails {\n  margin-bottom: 15px;\n  border: 1px solid #ddd;\n  border-radius: 5px;\n  padding: 15px;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  width: 100%;\n}\n\n.qa-box details {\n  border: 1px solid #4169E1;\n  background: white;\n}\n\nsummary {\n  font-weight: bold;\n  cursor: pointer;\n  color: #2c5530;\n  font-size: 16px;\n  padding: 5px 0;\n  min-height: 44px;\n  display: flex;\n  align-items: center;\n}\n\n.spec-row {\n  padding: 8px 0;\n  border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\n}\n\n.spec-row:last-child {\n  border-bottom: none;\n}\n\n@media (max-width: 768px) {\n  .jump-links {\n    font-size: 12px;\n  }\n  \n  .jump-links a {\n    display: inline-block;\n    margin: 5px;\n  }\n  \n  h2 {\n    font-size: 20px;\n  }\n  \n  h3 {\n    font-size: 17px;\n  }\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\/\",\n  \"@type\": \"Product\",\n  \"name\": \"Le Creuset Signature Stainless Steel Sauté Pan with Lid 24cm\",\n  \"description\": \"Premium sauté pan with brushed stainless steel finish and three-ring design. 3-ply construction for even heat distribution.

Wash in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly. You may optionally season the pan by rubbing a thin layer of vegetable or corn oil over the interior surface, heating it gently until the oil begins to smoke, then wiping clean with paper towels once cooled. This initial seasoning can improve early performance but isn't essential for stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooking technique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Preheat the pan on medium heat for 2-3 minutes before adding oil or butter. The pan is ready when a drop of water forms a ball and rolls across the surface. Add fat and let it heat until shimmering before adding food. Use medium to medium-high heat for most cooking - stainless steel is efficient and doesn't require maximum heat. Protein will release naturally when properly seared; if it's sticking firmly, it's not ready to turn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsing the sloped sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e The sloped design makes it easy to slide a spatula under food at an angle. When tossing vegetables or flipping food, use a quick jerking motion - the sloped sides guide food up and over. This is particularly useful for sautéed vegetables, fried potatoes, or pan-fried fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDaily cleaning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Allow the pan to cool for a few minutes before washing. Don't plunge hot pans into cold water - thermal shock can warp even quality cookware. Wash in warm soapy water with a non-abrasive sponge. The pan is dishwasher safe, though hand washing preserves the brushed finish longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemoving stuck-on food:\u003c\/strong\u003e For light residue, deglaze the warm pan with a splash of water - the liquid will loosen stuck bits.

The straight sides prevent liquid and food from spilling during vigorous stirring or tossing, making sauté pans better for dishes with sauces or larger volumes of food. The wider base still allows for the quick, high-heat cooking that \"sauté\" implies, but the higher sides add versatility for braising, poaching, or cooking dishes that generate liquid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow resilient is the \"toughened\" non-stick coating?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLe Creuset's reinforced coating withstands higher temperatures and more robust use than standard non-stick surfaces. It tolerates brief exposure to higher heat if you accidentally leave it unattended, and resists scratching better than basic non-stick. However, it's not indestructible—avoid metal utensils, excessive heat, and abrasive cleaning to maximise lifespan. The coating should last years with proper care rather than months like budget non-stick pans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhy does this pan have two handles?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 26cm pan becomes quite heavy when filled with food and liquid. The helper handle (small grab handle opposite the main handle) allows you to lift the pan safely with two hands, distributing weight and reducing strain. This is particularly useful when transferring the pan to the oven, pouring contents into serving dishes, or simply moving a full pan on the hob.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use this pan in the oven?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck the specific temperature limits in the manufacturer's documentation, but Le Creuset TNS pans are typically oven safe to moderate temperatures. The glass lid has its own temperature limit, usually lower than the pan itself.

The high sides provide more capacity than a 26cm frying pan, so you can cook larger batches of food with sauce or liquid. For families of 5+, you might want a 28cm or 30cm sauté pan, though the 26cm works well for side dishes or when cooking in batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"expert-box\" id=\"customer-feedback\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Our Customers Tell Us\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCustomer reviews consistently highlight three key themes. First, the quality and durability of construction.

One reviewer describes it as \"so versatile,\" and the non-stick surface receives specific praise as \"absolutely brilliant.\" This versatility stems from the sauté pan design—it handles tasks typically requiring multiple pans, from quick frying to slow cooking with the lid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThird, several customers mention the pan's weight, noting that \"handles on both sides helps as the pan is fairly heavy.\" This isn't a complaint but rather confirmation that the helper handle serves its purpose. The weight indicates substantial construction rather than thin, lightweight materials that warp or conduct heat unevenly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn our 52 years selling cookware, we've observed that customers who choose Le Creuset typically prioritise longevity and performance over initial cost.

Le Creuset's reinforced coating lasts significantly longer than budget non-stick pans.

Whilst the reinforced coating is more scratch-resistant than basic non-stick, metal utensils will eventually damage it. Even occasional use creates small scratches that accumulate over time, reducing the coating's effectiveness and potentially creating areas where food sticks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat's the best way to cook with minimal oil in this pan?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe non-stick coating enables cooking with very little fat. For most foods, a light coating of oil or butter is sufficient—brush or wipe it across the surface rather than pouring. Preheat the pan on medium heat before adding food. The better the non-stick coating, the less fat required, but some fat often improves flavour and browning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I sear meat in this pan?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, though non-stick pans aren't ideal for high-heat searing that creates restaurant-quality crusts. For everyday searing, use medium-high heat—hot enough to brown the meat but not so hot that it damages the non-stick coating. For maximum crust development on steaks, a stainless steel or cast iron pan achieves better results, but this sauté pan handles moderate searing perfectly well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs the glass lid oven safe to the same temperature as the pan?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, glass lids typically have lower oven-safe temperature limits than the pan itself. Check the specific limits in your pan's documentation. The glass can withstand moderate oven temperatures, but extreme heat can cause thermal stress. If you need to cook at high oven temperatures, consider removing the lid or using an alternative covering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhy should I choose this over a stainless steel sauté pan?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe non-stick coating offers easier food release and simpler cleaning—particularly useful for delicate foods like fish or eggs that tend to stick to stainless steel. You'll use less fat when cooking, and cleanup requires less scrubbing. The trade-off is that non-stick coatings eventually wear out whilst stainless steel lasts indefinitely, and non-stick can't handle the very high heat that stainless steel tolerates.

The hard anodised aluminium conducts heat so efficiently that medium heat provides excellent searing results.

On induction hobs with settings 1-9 plus boost, never exceed level 7 to protect the non-stick coating. Avoid using the 'boost' function.

The best coatings begin deteriorating at 270-280°C. Normal cooking occurs at 170-230°C. The gap between proper cooking temperature and coating destruction is smaller than most people realise, which is why heat management is crucial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMost people use too much heat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reduce your normal heat settings by 25-30% from what you think you need. The hard anodised aluminium in this pan conducts heat so efficiently that you need less heat than you'd use with inferior cookware. You'll get better cooking results, lower energy bills, and your pan will last years instead of months. High heat provides no cooking benefit - it simply destroys the coating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHeat Settings and Hob Use\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral heat advice:\u003c\/strong\u003e Always use medium to low heat, even for frying and searing. Let the pan heat up gradually - the superior heat conduction means patience is rewarded with even cooking and perfectly seared food. High heat is never necessary and will permanently damage the coating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInduction hob settings:\u003c\/strong\u003e On induction hobs with settings 1-9 plus boost, never exceed level 7. The 'boost' function should not be used with non-stick cookware. Induction heats very rapidly, making it easy to accidentally overheat and destroy the coating. Start at level 4-5 and increase gradually only if needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing the right hob ring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use the most appropriately sized hob ring for the pan size. A 24cm pan needs a similar-sized ring for even heating. Wrong-sized rings create hot spots that burn food and damage the coating. This is especially important on induction hobs - incorrect ring size may prevent the hob recognising the pan or create dangerous temperature variations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEmpty pans overheat rapidly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Never leave the pan heating empty on the hob. Empty pans overheat many times faster than pans with oil or food because heat has nowhere to go and builds up rapidly. For fat-free cooking, preheat on medium heat for around 2 minutes maximum, then add food immediately. Never leave empty pans unattended on heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsing oils correctly:\u003c\/strong\u003e Using oils with low smoke points (flashpoints) at high temperatures will create carbonised grease that makes food stick and is almost impossible to remove. Use oils appropriate for your cooking temperature, or better yet, reduce your heat so any cooking oil works properly. At 350°C, oil starts smoking - meaning you've broken down its structure and destroyed your pan's coating simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eUsing Utensils\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended utensils:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use Le Creuset silicone tools, wooden utensils, or soft nylon implements.

The coating is only microns thick - even with reinforcement, it remains vulnerable. If you must use metal utensils, use extreme care: no harsh scraping, no knocking on the rim, no cutting in the pan.

Always place on a shelf or rack, never on the oven floor which increases temperature unpredictably. When using under the grill, maintain at least 5cm gap between the heat source and the top of the pan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHob-to-oven techniques:\u003c\/strong\u003e The shallow design and oven capability make this excellent for starting dishes on the hob and finishing in the oven. Sear meat on medium heat, then transfer directly to a moderate oven. This versatility is one of the pan's greatest strengths.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCleaning - Critical for Longevity\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy thorough cleaning matters:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-stick cookware must be washed thoroughly in hot soapy water after every use. The old practice of \"just wiping pans clean\" applies only to traditional cast iron, not modern non-stick. Inadequate cleaning is the second biggest cause of non-stick failure after overheating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat happens with inadequate cleaning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Invisible grease residue carbonises over time, creating a film on the surface that prevents the non-stick from working. Food then sticks even though the coating underneath is intact. This carbonised grease is almost impossible to remove without damaging the coating. Prevention through proper washing is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProper washing method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Allow the pan to cool for a few minutes after cooking. Never plunge hot aluminium into cold water - thermal shock can damage it. Once cooled slightly, wash in hot soapy water using a soft cloth, sponge, or nylon brush designed for non-stick surfaces. The non-stick coating on both interior and exterior makes cleaning effortless when done promptly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor stubborn residue:\u003c\/strong\u003e If food residue remains, don't use abrasive cleaners or harsh pads. Fill with warm soapy water and let soak for 15-20 minutes, then wash as normal. With proper heat management, stubborn residue should be rare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNever use the dishwasher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Whilst Le Creuset states this pan is dishwasher safe, never put non-stick cookware in the dishwasher. The harsh chemicals and high heat deteriorate the coating over time, reducing its effectiveness and lifespan. Hand washing in hot soapy water is quick, easy, and essential for maintaining the non-stick properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGlass-topped hobs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Never slide the pan on glass hob surfaces as this may damage both the pan base and the glass.

This construction provides rapid, even heat distribution across the entire base and up the sides, eliminating hot spots that cause uneven cooking or burning. The result is consistent, reliable performance whether you're searing steaks, simmering Bolognese, or frying eggs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe toughened non-stick coating represents Le Creuset's best-ever non-stick technology. Independently laboratory tested, it's 4x stronger than standard non-stick coatings and resists metal utensil abrasion. This robustness means occasional contact with metal spoons or spatulas won't damage the surface - though Le Creuset recommends silicone, wooden, or heat-resistant plastic tools for maximum longevity. The coating releases food instantly, making cooking and cleaning effortless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe deep sides - 9.6cm high - transform this beyond a standard frying pan. Food stays safely contained during cooking rather than escaping onto your hob, and the extra depth accommodates sauces, stews, and braised dishes that would overflow in shallow pans. This versatility means one pan handles multiple cooking techniques: frying, sautéing, simmering, braising, and shallow stewing. The generous depth also makes this excellent for batch cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCritical for non-stick longevity: use only low to medium heat. Non-stick coatings degrade when exposed to high temperatures. The hard anodised construction's excellent heat distribution means medium heat provides sufficient cooking temperature even for searing and high-heat frying. This heat limitation protects your investment and ensures years of non-stick performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize selection depends on your cooking needs. The 24cm suits 1-2 people for everyday frying and small portions - compact with a single handle. The 26cm accommodates 2-3 people and represents the most versatile size for average households. The 28cm handles 3-4 people, larger portions, and batch cooking. The 30cm accommodates 4-6 people, family meals, entertaining, and substantial one-pot dishes. The helper handles on larger sizes prove invaluable when pans are full of food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable for those seeking quality non-stick cookware that lasts, anyone wanting versatile pan for multiple cooking techniques, busy families who need durable everyday cookware, those building quality kitchen collections, and as practical gifts for students or anyone setting up a kitchen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"qa-box\" id=\"qa\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Customers Ask About Le Creuset Toughened Non-Stick Deep Frying Pan\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat makes this a 'deep' frying pan?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe high sides (9.6cm) make this pan deeper than standard frying pans, preventing food from escaping onto your hob during cooking.

Le Creuset's toughened non-stick - independently tested to be 4x stronger than standard - represents genuine engineering advancement rather than marketing claims. The metal utensil resistance means occasional contact won't ruin the pan, though we still recommend softer tools for maximum longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe deep sides transform versatility beyond what most customers initially realise. This isn't just a frying pan - it's a multi-purpose workhorse that handles sauces, stews, and braises alongside traditional frying. The 9.6cm height means food stays contained, and you can tackle cooking techniques that would overflow in shallow pans. Combined with the toughened non-stick, this becomes genuinely versatile everyday cookware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHard anodised construction matters. Cheap thin pans develop hot spots despite non-stick coatings, causing sticking and uneven cooking. The hard anodised aluminium distributes heat evenly, making the non-stick coating work properly whilst protecting it from heat damage. And the critical mistake we see repeatedly: using high heat with non-stick pans permanently damages coatings. Medium heat with this construction cooks just as effectively whilst protecting your investment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specs-box\" id=\"specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes Available:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24cm, 26cm, 28cm, 30cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelper Handle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 26cm, 28cm, 30cm models (24cm has single handle only)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.6cm (all sizes)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e24cm Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W25.1cm x H9.6cm x L45.2cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e26cm Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W27.1cm x H9.6cm x L51.7cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e28cm Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W29.1cm x H9.6cm x L53.7cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e30cm Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W31.1cm x H9.6cm x L57.2cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hard anodised forged aluminium with toughened non-stick coating\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hard anodised aluminium, toughened non-stick interior\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-Stick Strength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4x stronger than standard (independently laboratory tested)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHob Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e All hobs including gas, electric, ceramic, halogen, induction\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeat Requirement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low to medium heat only (never high heat)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOven Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 260°C (220°C with glass lid)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMicrowave Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlass Lid:\u003c\/strong\u003e Available separately\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep sides, abrasion resistant, fat-free cooking capable\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes (hand washing strongly recommended)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFreezer Compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufactured In:\u003c\/strong\u003e China\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lifetime guarantee\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"care-box\" id=\"care\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Use Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore First Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Remove all labels and packaging. Wash thoroughly in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreheating:\u003c\/strong\u003e Place the pan on an appropriately sized hob ring and heat on low to medium for 1-2 minutes. Never use high heat. Add a small amount of fat if desired, then add food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Limitation - Critical:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use only low to medium heat, never high heat. Non-stick coatings degrade when exposed to high temperatures. The hard anodised construction's excellent heat distribution means medium heat provides sufficient cooking temperature even for searing and high-heat frying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFat-Free Cooking:\u003c\/strong\u003e To cook without fat, preheat on medium for approximately 2 minutes, then add food directly. However, a small amount of butter or oil improves flavour, aids browning, and helps maintain coating longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNever Use Cooking Sprays:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cooking sprays contain additives that build up on non-stick surfaces, creating sticky residue. Use butter or oil instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUtensil Selection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Le Creuset silicone, wooden, or heat-resistant plastic tools are recommended. Metal utensils can be used with care - no harsh scraping or knocking against the rim.

The deep sides allow simmering, braising, and stewing beyond traditional frying. Use appropriately sized hob rings to prevent handle and side damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInduction Hob Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Never use the 'boost' function - it's only for rapidly heating large water volumes.

Always lift to move the pan on or off the surface, or across it. Sliding can damage both the pan base and the glass surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOven Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oven safe to 260°C (220°C with glass lid), but remember the low-medium heat limitation still applies. Use for finishing dishes or keeping warm. Place on shelf or rack, never on oven floor. When using under grill, maintain at least 5cm gap between heat source and pan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStaining:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cooking ingredients with low smoking points (such as butter) at higher temperatures can cause staining to the cooking surface.

The 24cm suits two-person meals and general frying. The 28cm handles family-sized portions and larger cuts of meat. The 30cm is best for cooking for four or more people, or when you need maximum surface area for searing multiple items. Consider your hob ring sizes - matching pan diameter to ring size improves efficiency and prevents handle overheating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWill this work on my induction hob?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, all sizes include magnetic steel in the base construction specifically for induction compatibility. The 3-ply design also works on gas, electric, and ceramic hobs. If you're unsure about your hob type, check if a magnet sticks to your current pans - if it does, they're induction compatible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow does stainless steel compare to non-stick for frying?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStainless steel develops better browning and fond (the flavourful bits that stick to the pan) which is essential for making pan sauces. However, it requires proper preheating and some fat to prevent sticking. Food releases naturally when properly seared. Non-stick pans are easier for delicate foods like fish or eggs but cannot achieve the same level of browning. If you primarily cook items that need developing a crust, stainless steel excels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use metal utensils?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the uncoated stainless steel interior tolerates metal utensils without damage. However, Le Creuset recommends their silicone tools or wooden implements to minimise scratching and maintain the polished appearance. The pan will still function perfectly with light scratching - it's an aesthetic consideration rather than a performance one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat's the difference between 3-ply and single-layer stainless steel?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSingle-layer stainless steel conducts heat poorly, creating hot spots where food burns whilst other areas undercook. The 3-ply construction bonds an aluminium core between steel layers - aluminium spreads heat rapidly whilst steel provides durability and a non-reactive cooking surface. This means more even cooking with less attention needed to prevent burning. Heat travels up the sides too, not just the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expert-box\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Our Customers Tell Us\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBased on verified reviews, customers consistently mention several key benefits of this frying pan range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eHeating Efficiency\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMultiple customers note that these pans heat up noticeably faster than their previous cookware. One customer specifically mentioned the pan \"heats up quickly compared to my old one making it more efficient.\" The 3-ply construction with its aluminium core distributes heat rapidly and evenly, reducing preheating time and energy use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLong-Term Durability\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLongevity is a recurring theme in reviews.

One customer wished they'd done this with previous pans, noting \"I definitely think it helps keep the finish and cooking process.\" Whilst not essential, a light seasoning with oil can help reduce initial sticking as you develop your technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIdeal for Searing\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCustomers purchasing specifically for searing meat report excellent results.

Non-stick coatings degrade at these temperatures. Stainless steel also accepts metal utensils without damage, lasts decades rather than years, and develops better fond (the flavourful browned bits) for making pan sauces. The trade-off is a learning curve for temperature control and food release technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow do I prevent food from sticking?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDemeyere recommends three essentials: correct temperature, patience, and quality construction. Preheat the pan thoroughly—test by dropping water drops with a fork; when they form balls that dance across the surface, the temperature is correct. Reduce heat by 50% before adding food. Allow proteins to develop a crust before attempting to move them—they'll release naturally when properly seared. If sticking occurs, reduce heat and wait; forcing food off the surface tears it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat's the advantage of 7-ply construction throughout versus just in the base?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard tri-ply pans feature multi-layer construction in the base but single-layer walls. Heat concentrates in the base, creating temperature variations between centre and edges. The Proline's 7-ply construction throughout the entire pan—base and walls—distributes heat uniformly across the cooking surface and up the sides. This eliminates hot spots, provides more even cooking, and makes temperature control more predictable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhich size should I choose?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20cm suits 1-2 portions or side dishes; 24cm handles 2-3 portions and serves as a versatile everyday size; 28cm accommodates 3-4 portions and larger cuts of meat; 32cm suits 4-6 portions or when cooking for gatherings. Consider your typical cooking quantities and hob size—larger pans require larger burners for even heating.

The handle attachment point and angle reduce conduction. Whilst handles eventually warm with extended high-heat cooking, they remain comfortable to grip during typical stovetop use without protection. This design eliminates the rivets found in many pans, which create crevices that trap food and bacteria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"customer-feedback\" class=\"expert-box\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Our Customers Tell Us\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCustomer reviews reveal a pattern common to professional-grade cookware: users either love the performance or find the learning curve challenging. Those praising the pan describe it as \"excellent,\" \"sturdy,\" and \"very satisfying to use\"—language suggesting appreciation for substantial, well-engineered equipment rather than convenience-focused tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne detailed review provides honest assessment of both strengths and considerations. The reviewer notes the pan \"works\" and is \"European made,\" recommending it despite acknowledging it's \"very expensive\" and questioning its value for most people. This reflects a truth about professional cookware: it serves those who prioritise performance and longevity over initial cost, rather than casual cooks seeking convenience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe same reviewer mentions the handle feels \"a bit thin\" and requires holding closer to the pan for better balance. This observation highlights a characteristic of professional cookware—designs optimised for performance sometimes differ from what feels intuitive to home cooks accustomed to consumer-oriented equipment. The reviewer also notes a slight hollow in the base (1.5mm), common in high-quality stainless steel pans and typically insignificant for cooking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComments about size reinforce the pan's capability—one customer notes it's a \"good size for the large family,\" confirming the larger Proline pans suit substantial cooking volumes rather than modest portions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn our 52 years selling cookware, we've observed that customers who master stainless steel technique rarely return to non-stick for tasks requiring high heat.

No seasoning required for stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreheating technique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Place the empty pan on medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes. Test temperature using the water drop method—drop a few drops of water into the pan with a fork. When drops immediately form balls that dance across the surface, the pan has reached optimal temperature. Reduce heat by approximately 50% before adding food or fat. This temperature creates the \"non-stick\" effect in stainless steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCooking proteins:\u003c\/strong\u003e Add a small amount of fat once the pan reaches temperature, then add meat. Allow proteins to develop a golden-brown crust before attempting to move them—they'll release naturally when properly seared. If sticking occurs, the surface hasn't yet formed a crust; reduce heat slightly and wait. Forcing food off the surface tears it and leaves residue stuck to the pan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFat-free cooking:\u003c\/strong\u003e This pan enables cooking without fat or oil when properly preheated. The technique requires precise temperature control—too hot and food burns, too cool and it sticks. Practice with the water drop test until you develop a feel for correct temperature. This method suits high-moisture foods like vegetables or naturally fatty proteins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDaily cleaning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Allow the pan to cool slightly before adding water—extreme temperature changes can warp even quality cookware. Wash with warm soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. For stuck-on food, fill with warm water and a small amount of washing-up liquid, bring to a gentle simmer, then clean as normal. The uncoated surface tolerates more aggressive cleaning than non-stick pans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemoving stubborn residue:\u003c\/strong\u003e For carbonised food or stubborn stains, make a paste from bicarbonate of soda and water, apply to affected areas, let sit for 15-30 minutes, then scrub with a non-abrasive sponge. For extremely stubborn deposits, Bar Keeper's Friend (oxalic acid-based cleaner) restores stainless steel effectively without damaging the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilding fond for sauces:\u003c\/strong\u003e The browned bits stuck to the pan after searing (fond) contain concentrated flavour. After removing cooked food, add liquid (wine, stock, or water) to the hot pan and scrape with a wooden spoon—this process, called deglazing, dissolves the fond and creates the base for pan sauces. This technique works only with uncoated pans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDishwasher use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Whilst dishwasher safe, hand washing preserves the exterior finish. Dishwasher detergents can dull stainless steel over time. If using a dishwasher, ensure the pan doesn't knock against other items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stack with pan protectors or cloth between pans to prevent scratching.

High heat is necessary only for initial preheating or when cooking very large volumes of food. The 7-ply construction conducts heat so efficiently that lower settings produce results equivalent to higher settings on inferior pans, whilst reducing energy consumption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"guarantees\" class=\"trust-box\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"margin-top: 0; color: #2c5530; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eWhy Buy From Art of Living?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in Reigate in 1972, we've spent over five decades helping customers select quality cookware.

Cast iron retains heat longer and tolerates higher temperatures, whilst stainless steel responds more quickly to temperature changes (better control) and weighs less. Stainless steel also doesn't react with acidic foods and requires no seasoning maintenance. For most home cooks, stainless steel offers more versatility, whilst cast iron suits specific high-heat applications like steaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Demeyere","offers":[{"title":"20cm","offer_id":31299552313402,"sku":"36406","price":188.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"24cm","offer_id":31299552346170,"sku":"36304","price":242.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"28cm with Handle","offer_id":31299552378938,"sku":"36305","price":260.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"32cm with Handle","offer_id":31299552411706,"sku":"36413","price":296.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0072\/1875\/7690\/products\/demeyere-atlantis-proline-frying-pan-stainless-steel-20cm-738.jpg?v=1633437148"},{"product_id":"demeyere-atlantis-saute-pan-stainless-steel","title":"Demeyere Atlantis Sauté Pan Stainless Steel","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis Demeyere Atlantis Sauté Pan Stainless Steel has been designed for quickly frying small portions of food in a pan without a lid, in a little butter or oil.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDemeyere are the copper pans of the 21st century - they give as good a cooking result, but are easier to use and easier to maintain.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhy we love it:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt is ideal for risottos, Bolognese, paellas or any all in one dishes.

The 2.6-litre capacity indicates total volume if filled to the brim, which is useful for comparing sizes. For practical cooking, you'd typically use less - this size comfortably handles 2-3 steaks, 4-6 chicken thighs, or serves 4-6 people for most dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWill the wooden handle get hot during cooking?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wooden handle is designed to stay cool during hob cooking. However, if you use this pan in the oven, the wooden handle will heat up and you must use oven gloves. Wood conducts heat much more slowly than metal, which is why it stays cooler during stovetop use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I put this pan in the oven with the wooden handle?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the wooden handle is oven-safe, though Le Creuset doesn't specify a maximum temperature in the provided information. Always use oven gloves when removing from the oven as the wooden handle will be hot. Check Le Creuset's specific guidance for maximum oven temperatures with wooden handles if needed for high-temperature cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat's the helper handle for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe helper handle is a small secondary handle opposite the main wooden handle. At 2.63kg empty (and heavier when full of food), this pan benefits from two-handed lifting. The helper handle provides a secure grip point for moving the pan between hob, oven, and table safely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eDoes enamelled cast iron need seasoning like traditional cast iron?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, enamelled cast iron does not need seasoning. The pan is coated in vitreous enamel and can be cleaned with regular washing-up liquid like any other pan. There's no patina to build or maintain - the enamel provides the non-stick properties from day one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use metal utensils in this pan?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetal utensils may be used with care, but Le Creuset recommends their silicone tools or wooden\/heat-resistant plastic utensils instead. Avoid harsh scraping or cutting directly on the enamel surface as this can cause damage over time. We recommend protecting your investment by using non-metal tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expert-box\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUnderstanding Cast Iron Frying Pans\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCast iron frying pans have been kitchen staples since we opened in 1972, and we've observed how customers' understanding of them has evolved. The key advantage is cast iron's exceptional heat retention - once preheated properly, it maintains consistent temperature even when cold food is added. This is crucial for achieving proper searing on steaks or browning on chicken.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLe Creuset's enamelled cast iron differs significantly from bare cast iron in care requirements. The enamel coating means no seasoning is needed - you can clean it with regular washing-up liquid just like any other pan. This addresses the most common concern we hear from customers considering cast iron: the maintenance. Enamelled cast iron combines traditional performance with modern convenience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wooden handle represents Le Creuset's design refinement over decades. Earlier cast iron pans used metal handles throughout, which became dangerously hot. The wooden handle stays cool during hob cooking whilst the helper handle provides secure two-handed grip - particularly important for heavier cast iron. This combination makes cast iron more accessible for everyday cooking rather than special-occasion use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specs-box\" id=\"specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e W 28.9cm × H 8.4cm × L 56.3cm (including handle)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 28.9cm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.6 litres\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.63kg\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Enamelled cast iron\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wooden handle with helper handle\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stay-cool wooden handle, ergonomic helper handle, integral hanging hook\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHob Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gas, electric, ceramic, induction, halogen\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOven Safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFreezer Compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"spec-row\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGuarantee:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lifetime (manufacturing defects)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"trust-box\" id=\"guarantees\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"margin-top: 0; color: #2c5530; font-size: 18px;\"\u003eWhy Buy From Art of Living?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in Reigate in 1972, we've spent over five decades helping customers select quality cookware.

Cast iron takes longer to heat than other materials but retains heat exceptionally well.

Cast iron's heat retention means high temperatures are rarely necessary. If you need higher heat initially, reduce to medium once the desired temperature is reached.

High heat isn't necessary and risks damaging the enamel coating or causing food to burn. Let the pan heat gradually for even cooking - once it reaches temperature, it maintains heat better than other materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs this dishwasher safe?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLe Creuset enamelled cast iron is technically dishwasher-safe, but we recommend hand-washing to preserve the enamel finish and the integrity of the wooden handle as wood tends to warp and crack when submerged in water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eCan I use this on induction hobs?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, cast iron is excellent for induction cooking. Ensure you match the pan size to an appropriately sized induction ring - too small and the hob may not recognise the pan, too large and you risk uneven heating or handle damage. Never slide the pan across glass induction surfaces; always lift it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eWhat's the integral hook for?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe integral hook allows you to hang the pan for storage on a pot rack or wall hook. This keeps it accessible whilst saving cupboard space. Ensure your hanging system can support 2.63kg plus the weight of the wooden handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eHow do I prevent food from sticking?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProper preheating is key - allow 3-5 minutes on medium heat before adding food. Add adequate fat or oil, and resist the urge to move food too soon. Proteins like steak will release naturally when properly seared. The enamelled interior provides some natural release, but isn't as non-stick as modern PTFE coatings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Le
