Overview
A stovetop with gas, electric coil, smooth top or induction burners can all take this All-Clad Copper Core saute pan. It is a bonded stainless steel build around a copper core, with a stainless steel handle and a lid included.
Copper core construction aims at precise heat control for browning and simmering, and the listing covers gas, coil, smooth top and induction cooktops. The oven rating is high, which helps with finishing dishes. Cleanup is by hand only, and the listing omits pan diameter and height.
Who it's for
Kitchens with an induction range, a gas range or a mix of both, and cooks who sear, simmer and reduce sauces often. Anyone who wants the dishwasher, a nonstick finish or listed pan dimensions should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Five-ply bonded copper core
- Works on induction, gas and coil
- Stainless steel handle
- Oven safe to high temperatures
- Hand wash only
- Pan diameter and height not listed
- Stainless surface is not nonstick
Performance notes
A copper core between stainless layers conducts heat quickly, which spreads burner heat across the pan and gives close control when searing or reducing a sauce. The stainless interior takes browning well but needs fat to release food. The handle and body are stainless steel, so the whole pan can go from burner to oven.
