Product Information

Full details

The Stellar Zero 28cm Frying Pan is an excellent choice for home cooks seeking a high-performance, chemical-free cooking surface for family-sized meals. Its primary advantage is the innovative Tri-Ply stainless steel construction and precision-etched texture that provides a natural non-stick effect without the use of PFAS or PTFE coatings. While this pan offers superior durability and metal-utensil compatibility, users should note that achieving the best non-stick results requires mastering proper heat management compared to traditional synthetic non-stick pans.

FAQs

Does this pan contain PFOA or PTFE?

No, the Stellar Zero range is completely free from both PFAS and PTFE chemical coatings.

Can I use metal utensils on this pan?

Yes, the robust stainless steel construction is designed to be resistant to scratches from metal utensils.

Is this pan compatible with induction cooktops?

Yes, the Tri-Ply construction is fully compatible with induction, as well as gas, electric, and ceramic hobs.

What is the maximum oven temperature this pan can handle?

The pan is oven safe up to 240C.

Is it safe to put this pan in the dishwasher?

Yes, the pan is dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended to keep the exterior looking like new.

Do I need to season this pan?

No, this is a stainless steel pan and does not require traditional seasoning like cast iron, though preheating is essential for non-stick performance.

Troubleshooting

Food is sticking to the pan surface

Ensure the pan is properly preheated before adding fats. If the pan is too cool, food will adhere. Adjust your heat source to medium and perform a water drop test to ensure it is ready.

Discoloration or rainbow-like marks on the base

This is typically caused by high heat or mineral deposits. These marks are cosmetic and do not affect performance; they can usually be removed with a stainless steel cleaner or a light vinegar solution.

Pan wobbles on the stove

Check that the hob surface is level. If the pan was exposed to extreme thermal shock, contact the manufacturer, but ensure you always allow the pan to cool gradually before cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before first use, ensure you wash the pan thoroughly in warm soapy water to remove any manufacturing residue. When using on an induction hob, ensure you match the pan base to the nearest ring size for maximum energy efficiency. While the pan is dishwasher safe, hand washing with a soft sponge and mild detergent is recommended to maintain the exterior's finish over the long term. If you encounter stubborn stains or discoloration, a stainless steel cleaner or a paste of baking soda and water can be used to restore the luster. Always allow the pan to cool before submerging it in water to prevent thermal shock.
