De Buyer Prima Matera Sauté Pan 20 cm, Copper/Stainless Steel

The De Buyer Prima Matera 20 cm sauté pan is crafted from copper and stainless steel. It is designed for cooking that requires precise heat control, such as searing, sautéing, or reducing liquids. Its size is suitable for preparing small portions of proteins or sauces. The copper exterior ensures efficient heat distribution, and the integrated base makes the pan compatible with induction, gas, and electric hobs. The pan reacts quickly to temperature changes, allowing for precise control during cooking.

The interior is made of stainless steel and has no non-stick coating. The pan is oven-safe, allowing for easy transitions from the hob to the oven. It is not dishwasher-safe and must be hand-washed to protect the copper. No lid is included, so you will need to use a separate cover if you need to retain steam. The exterior finish requires regular polishing to maintain its appearance over time. The straight sides help keep ingredients in the pan while you stir or simmer.
