What Customers Ask About This Product
Is it dishwasher safe?
We recommend handwashing rather than the dishwasher, to protect the non-stick coating and help it last.
Do I need high heat for good results?
No, we'd actually recommend the opposite. Hard anodised aluminium conducts heat so efficiently that medium heat gives excellent results, and high heat is the main cause of non-stick coatings wearing out early.
Can I use metal utensils?
We recommend silicone or wooden utensils instead. Metal can be used with care, but even a single careless scrape can permanently damage the coating.
Which size should I choose?
The 24cm suits everyday cooking for smaller households, while the 28cm and 30cm give you more room for family meals or entertaining.
In our experience...
A sauteuse is genuinely two pans in one. With the lid it behaves like a deep sauté pan, and without it, it becomes an oven roaster or baker, so it covers more cooking styles than a single-purpose pan.
Deep sides genuinely change what you can cook confidently. Dishes that would splatter in a shallow pan stay contained here, which matters for anything with more liquid.
Thorough washing matters more than a manufacturer's dishwasher-safe claim suggests. Handwashing in hot soapy water after every use genuinely helps a non-stick coating last, regardless of what the dishwasher-safe label says.
It's built to go straight to the table. The polished, contemporary look means it doubles as a serving piece once cooking is done, not just a cooking vessel.
An empty pan is more vulnerable than a full one. With nowhere for heat to go, an empty pan overheats far faster than one with oil or food in it, so it should never be left heating unattended.
Specifications
Care & Use Instructions
Before first use: Wash in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Heat setting: Always cook on medium heat, even for browning or searing. Hard anodised aluminium conducts heat so efficiently that high heat gives no real benefit and is the single biggest cause of non-stick coatings failing early. If in doubt, use a lower setting than feels intuitive.
Utensils: We recommend silicone or wooden utensils. Metal utensils can technically be used with care, but we don't recommend them, since the coating is only microns thick and even a single careless scrape can cause permanent damage.
Induction hobs: Use a moderate setting and avoid the 'boost' function, which heats too quickly for non-stick cookware.
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 in hot soapy water after every use, rather than the dishwasher, to protect the coating and help it last.
Storage: If stacking with other pans, place a cloth or protector between them to avoid scratching the non-stick surface.
