Classical Range 40 x 26cm Oval Copper au Gratin Pan with Cast Iron Loop Handles

Our 40x26 oval gratin is versatile as well as useful. Ideal as a roasting pan for joints and poultry, its low sides and wide cooking area provide the perfect conditions for gratin recipes, browning the crusts without burning. An added benefit is the beauty of the highly conductive copper, making it a lovely serving piece. Solid copper's unique thermal responsiveness gives you control of the temperature and thus the results of your culinary effort. The hygienic stainless steel interior is easy to clean and the two cast iron handles are incredibly durable.

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.
