FAQ
Sauce pans are made from materials like stainless steel, aluminium, copper, and cast iron. Each material affects heat distribution and durability. Stainless steel is durable and easy to clean, while aluminium heats quickly. Copper offers excellent heat control, and cast iron retains heat well for slow cooking.
Choosing the right size sauce pan depends on your cooking needs. Sauce pans range from 1 to 4 litres. For small portions or sauces, a 1-2 litre pan is ideal. Larger dishes or family meals may require a 3-4 litre pan.
Sauce pans suitable for induction hobs have a magnetic base. Look for stainless steel or cast iron options as they work well with induction cooktops. Always check the manufacturer's specifications to ensure compatibility with induction hobs.
Non-stick sauce pans are safe when used correctly. They prevent food from sticking and require less oil. Avoid high heat and metal utensils to prolong the coating's life. Choose PFOA-free options for added safety.
Sauce pans can be dishwasher-safe depending on the material and manufacturer instructions. Stainless steel is usually dishwasher-friendly, while non-stick and aluminium may require hand washing to maintain their finish.
Sauce pans have lids to trap heat and moisture, speeding up cooking times and enhancing flavours. Lids help maintain consistent temperatures and reduce evaporation, which is especially useful for simmering sauces or boiling liquids.
