Know before you buy
With a 3.5-inch diameter and a 0.31-quart capacity, this pan is designed for small-scale tasks like warming individual portions of sauce, melting butter, or presenting condiments and warm desserts at the table.
This pan is not natively compatible with induction cooktops. However, you can use it on induction surfaces if you purchase a separate induction disc.
The 18/10 stainless steel interior is non-reactive, meaning it won't alter the flavor of your food. It is bonded to the copper exterior to provide the best of both worlds: the superior heat conductivity of copper and the durability and ease of maintenance of stainless steel.
This pan is not dishwasher safe and should be hand-washed to preserve its finish. To keep the exterior looking its best, you may occasionally need to use a copper polish to remove natural oxidation.
Yes, the pan is oven-safe, making it a great option for finishing small dishes or keeping sauces warm before serving.
