Classical Range 28cm Copper Saucepan with Cast Iron Handle and Helper Handle

We proudly present our largest capacity saucepan, the 28cm. This Classical Range version comes complete with a cast iron loop "helper handle" in addition to the usual long handle for safe lifting.  Those of you who have hefted this solid beauty appreciate the huge difference that extra helper handle makes when moving the pan off the heat or into or out of the oven.  (Yes, it's fully oven safe, just be careful to protect your hands from the heat when reaching for the handles!) As a saucepan, this is a typically deep vessel with high straight sides to reduce evaporation as the liquid simmers. As a piece of Falk Culinair copper cookware, this saucepan has a bit of added "mojo" that makes it exceptional.  

That "something extra" which distinguishes our cookware from so many others begins with the raw materials themselves. Its no mystery that copper cookware has been used, treasured and coveted throughout history by great chefs and humble cooks alike. It happens to be the most effective and efficient material used in the cooking industry. No other material used in the crafting of cookware conducts, maintains or distributes heat as well as copper. Falk has taken this product and made it just a bit better. Rather than the old fashioned tin lining (which had to be replaced in time), a new fusion of stainless steel and copper permanently bonded together has become the benchmark. Now, you have a product which will last beyond your lifetime and is backed by our unparalleled customer support. This ethos is evident in our aftercare as well. So many of you have become valued friends, part of our growing Falk family. So go cook yourself a top drawer meal!

Use tips

• Suitable for both electric and gas hobs.
• Oven safe to 280°C/535°F/Gas Mark 8.
• Because of its superior conductivity, copper (and copper core) cookware rarely requires full heat on a hob, typically no more than 50-75% of full power.  Use a lower flame when cooking with gas.
• We recommend seasoning pan interiors with a vegetable oil occasionally prior to frying and sautéing, and always use a small amount of oil when pre-heating.
• Avoid pre-heating an empty saucepan and never allow this to boil dry.
• When seasoning your food remember to heat the water to boiling point first, especially before adding salt.  This disperses the salt quickly and prevents pitting of the stainless steel lining.

Care tips

• Always allow pots and pans to cool before cleaning.
• Do not put Falk cookware in a mechanical dishwasher.
• We do not recommend the use of products containing bleach for cleaning copper cookware.
• Hand washing in warm soapy water is normally all that is required.  Always dry immediately after washing with a soft cloth.
• Copper will develop a rich patina over time.  This will not affect cooking performance.
• To keep copper pans looking like new, use a suitable polish for copper and a fine abrasive pad.
• Apply a light coat of vegetable oil to cast iron handles from time to time to prevent rusting.
