Why does my food stick to this stainless steel pan?

A stainless steel pan does not have a non-stick coating. Food is especially likely to stick if the pan is not yet hot enough, if you turn it over too soon, or if the food is wet or cold from the refrigerator. It is normal for food to stick briefly: if a crust forms, it will release on its own. Read our tips for cooking without sticking in a stainless steel pan.

How do I know if the pan is hot enough?

Do the drop test. Heat the pan over medium heat and add a few drops of water. Do the drops dance like little ballerinas? Then the pan is ready. Do they evaporate slowly? Then it’s not hot enough. Do they sizzle away immediately? Then it’s too hot.

What is the best way to bake it?

Take the food out of the refrigerator in time and pat it dry.Heat the pan on approximately 70–80% heat.Only then add oil or butter to the pan. Then turn the heat down by about 30%.Leave the food alone for a while first. Only turn it over when it releases.

Which oil or butter should I use?

An oil with a high smoke point, such as sunflower oil or peanut oil, or baking butter is preferable. Use a little more fat for eggs, fish, and pancakes.

Is this pan PFAS-free?

Yes. The pan is made entirely of stainless steel and has no non-stick coating. Therefore, it also contains no PFAS.

What is the pan made of?

Made from tri-ply: two layers of stainless steel with a layer of aluminium in between. The aluminium distributes heat quickly and evenly, without hot spots. This allows you to brown meat thoroughly.

How do I clean the pan?

Wash the pan with warm water and dish soap and dry it immediately. First soak burnt-on residue in hot water. Remove limescale stains with water and a dash of vinegar. Never use steel wool.

Is the pan dishwasher-safe?

Yes, that’s fine. Stainless steel can withstand dishwasher use without its lifespan being reduced.

Does the handle get hot?

The hollow handle stays cool while cooking on the stovetop. However, the handle does get hot in the oven. Always use an oven mitt in this case.

Can the pan go in the oven? Does it work on induction?

Yes. The pan is oven-safe up to 230°C and works on all stovetops, including induction.

Can I use metal kitchen utensils?

Yes. Stainless steel doesn't have a coating that can chip, so a metal spatula is fine.
