Hestan CopperBond Induction Copper Essential Pan with Lid

This induction-compatible curved splayed saute pan, or saucier, from Hestan has a core of copper, a metal prized by chefs for how quickly and evenly it conducts heat. This versatile shape has many uses, but is ideal for reducing liquids for stews, curries, sauces, and more.

—DETAILS— Made in Italy, the Hestan CopperBond range has been optimised for induction hobs. Every piece features five layers of metal: outer layers of stainless steel, supporting layers of aluminium, and a core of copper, a metal that provides unparalleled temperature control. The wraparound stainless steel base creates greater contact area with the heat source, which is particularly useful for induction hobs. With copper sides and a hanging loop, this pan is aesthetically pleasing as well as functional, with user-friendly features like a flared rim for drip-free pouring and flat rivets that are easy to clean around. The ergonomic handle is contoured, which prevents slippage, and includes a finger guard that protects your hand from getting too close to the pan. Oven-safe up to 315C, this curved splayed saute pan, or saucier, is a shape so versatile that Hestan calls it their ‘Essential Pan’. In addition to sauting and frying, it is ideal for stews, risottos, curries, and sauces, as the curved shape is ideal for reducing liquids.

—BENEFITS— ‘Suitable for both professional and home kitchens, Hestan CopperBond pans modernise copper so it is suitable for all hobs including induction. These high-performance pans are built to last a lifetime.’
