Cooking pots come in many different sizes, from 12 cm to 30 cm. This is something to keep in mind as you're buying your new pan or pan set. Of course, there are other factors that are important to consider too. This is why we will give you some practical buying tips for pans.
Whether you are looking for a sauce pan, cooking pot or pan set: we have got it all. We offer a large range of products of different brands and suitable for different heat sources. For example, the best pans from Le Creuset, Zwilling, Fissler, Scanpan, de Buyer and Demeyere are available from our stock.
The difference between pans is huge. So is the price. One of the reasons for the price difference is the choice of material. In addition, construction, thermal conductivity and quality vary from brand to brand. Curving and deterioration of heat conductivity are two important properties that make a pan worthless.
Heat distribution of cooking pots
A good pan can be recognized by an even distribution of heat. The well-known flour test can prove this: cover the bottom of a pan with an even layer of flour and turn on the heat. A pan with an uneven distribution of heat will show different brown circles in the flour. A good pan makes for an evenly spread-out brown colour across the bottom of the pan. We have pans for all kinds of heat sources.
Quality of pans
Additionally, a good pan distinguishes itself by having certain qualities. Some series have ‘cold grips’ (also called heat-resistant handles), that don’t become hot when the pan is heated. Also, a good pan will not curve when you change heat sources. Feel free to place your pan on the cooker and then in the oven. The pan will not curve. Innovative designs have also been thought of. Such as a lid that is shaped in such a way that condensation drips back into the pan. Never again will you drip water everywhere when taking the lid off the pan!
Induction pan set
Are you looking for a cookware set especially for induction? Then we can help you out. We have many sets of pans that are suitable for cooking on an induction hob: they have flat magnetic bases that make optimal contact with the induction hob. Whether or not a pan or pan set is suitable for this is clearly stated in the specifications.
Want to buy a saucepan?
Of course we also have the best saucepan for you. A saucepan is perfect when you want to prepare something small. For example, sauces or side-dishes. What's convenient about saucepans is that you can move them very easily with one hand. Drainage is also easier with a saucepan because you hold the handle with one hand and can use the other hand to control the lid.
