de Buyer Inocuivre Service Stew Pan

Copper is highly reactive to acidic foods, which can alter the taste of your dish and potentially cause copper leaching. The stainless steel lining provides a non-reactive cooking surface that is safe for all ingredients while still allowing you to benefit from copper's superior heat conductivity.

No, this pan is not compatible with induction cooktops. It is designed for use on gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops.

To maintain the polished look of the copper, you will need to use a dedicated copper polish occasionally. Avoid putting the pan in the dishwasher, as the harsh detergents and high heat will tarnish the copper and damage the brass handles.

The brass handles are riveted and durable, but they will get hot during stovetop cooking. Always use an oven mitt or kitchen towel when handling the pan while it is on the heat.

Because of its excellent thermal conductivity, this pan is best suited for tasks that require precise temperature control, such as simmering delicate sauces or slow-cooking stews. It responds quickly to heat adjustments, so you may find you need to use lower heat settings than you are accustomed to with other materials.
