The Le Creuset Essential Non-Stick Ceramic saucepan pairs a compact 18cm diameter with a 2.8L capacity for recipes that need careful stirring, reducing or finishing. Its rounded sides help spatulas and whisks move around the pan when preparing sauces, creams, syrups and liquid bases.
Part of the Essential Non-Stick Ceramic range, the pan has a ceramic non-stick coating that is free from PFOA, PFAS and PTFE. It is compatible with induction, gas, electric, ceramic and radiant cooktops, as well as grills and ovens. The maximum oven temperature is 280°C.
This range of uses lets you move from the stovetop to the oven when a recipe calls for reduction, finishing or keeping food warm. The shape is particularly useful for preparations where stirring and monitoring consistency are central to the cooking process.
The ceramic non-stick surface suits recipes that require frequent stirring and close attention to texture. When cooking with butter, oil, milk or syrup, or making a reduction, it helps reduce sticking as you move the ingredients around the pan and incorporate each addition.
The saucepan shape also suits recipes that need sustained attention, including béchamel, ganache, caramel, compotes and softer polenta. It can be used to prepare hot sauces for serving at the table or adding to a dish just before serving.
Use low or medium heat with a small amount of oil or fat. Silicone utensils are recommended to help preserve the coating during use. These recommendations apply to everyday cooking, including the stirring and mixing involved in sauces and cream-based preparations.
The pan works on induction, gas, electric, ceramic and radiant cooktops, and is also suitable for grill and oven use. This flexibility is useful in kitchens with more than one cooking method, or for recipes that begin on the stovetop and finish in the oven.
With a maximum oven temperature of 280°C, it can be used for warming, reducing and lightly browning dishes, as well as finishing recipes at higher temperatures. For stovetop cooking, keep to the recommended low or medium heat.
Allow the pan to cool before washing. It is dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to help preserve the coating for longer. The choice of washing method is part of caring for the surface, alongside the use of silicone utensils during cooking.
Avoid abrasive sponges, sharp objects, drops and thermal shock. Taking these precautions helps maintain both the performance of the ceramic non-stick coating and the appearance of the pan over time.
