Know before you buy
Yes, the D3 Tri-Ply construction features a magnetic stainless steel exterior that makes these saucepans fully compatible with induction, as well as gas and electric stovetops.
While the stainless steel construction is durable, hand-washing is recommended to maintain the finish and performance of the pans over time.
These saucepans are oven and broiler safe up to 600°F, allowing you to easily transition from the stovetop to the oven for finishing dishes.
No, these are traditional stainless steel pans. They feature a natural stick-resistant interior, but they do not have a chemical non-stick coating.
The aluminum core sandwiched between two layers of stainless steel provides rapid, even heat distribution. This prevents hot spots, which is essential for delicate sauces that might otherwise scorch.
The pans feature riveted stainless steel handles designed for a secure grip. Because they are metal, they will get hot on the stovetop, so we recommend using a kitchen towel or oven mitt when handling.
