Viking Chef Pan

The 5-ply construction features a core of conductive metals sandwiched between layers of stainless steel. This design eliminates hot spots and ensures heat spreads evenly across the entire surface of the pan, rather than just the center.

Yes, this pan is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, and halogen ranges.

The stainless steel handle is oven-safe, allowing you to move the pan directly from the stovetop to the oven. However, the handle will get hot during stovetop use, so you should always use an oven mitt or towel when handling it.

Yes, the included lid is designed to be tight-fitting. This helps trap moisture and heat inside the pan, making it an excellent choice for braising, simmering, or steaming ingredients.

While the pan is dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing to maintain the polished finish of the stainless steel over time. Dishwasher detergents can sometimes cause minor surface dulling or discoloration after repeated cycles.

Because of its 5-ply construction, this pan has a substantial, professional weight. It is sturdy enough to remain stable on your burner, but it is not so heavy that it becomes difficult to maneuver when full.
