Know before you buy
Tri-ply construction means the pan is made of three layers—typically a core of heat-conductive metal sandwiched between two layers of durable stainless steel. This design ensures heat spreads evenly across the entire surface, eliminating hot spots and providing consistent results when searing or browning.
Yes, the Chantal 3.Clad Sauteuse is fully compatible with all cooktop surfaces, including magnetic induction, gas, and electric.
Yes, the glass lid is oven-safe up to 425°F, allowing you to monitor your food while it finishes cooking in the oven.
The ergonomic handles are designed to stay cool on the stovetop under normal cooking conditions, providing a safer and more comfortable grip. However, please note that the handles will become hot if placed inside the oven.
While the pan is durable, hand washing with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge is recommended to maintain the polished finish. For stubborn food residue, a stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water works effectively.
With a generous 5-quart capacity and a wide 11 3/4-inch opening, this sauteuse is excellent for braising. Its depth and even heat distribution make it well-suited for browning meats and simmering liquids for extended periods.
