Classical Range 28cm Round Copper au Gratin Pan with Cast Iron Loop Handles

Our 28cm round gratin pan has low, gently flared sides to facilitate the tender browned crusts that define gratin recipes.  With the unique properties of copper ensuring even heat distribution, you have a product that puts control firmly in your grasp.  Regulating temperature as well as producing intense food flavour, thanks to the hygienic stainless steel interior permanently bonded in our patented intercrystallisation process, makes this vessel practical and useful. The two convenient cast iron loop handles ensure safe handling, on the hob as a frying pan or braising vessel, or in the oven baking, roasting and browning your favourite foods. The glowing brushed finish, exclusive to Falk Culinair, is easy to care for too!

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.
• For further information please see this article on maintaining and cleaning copper cookware.
