FAQs

What material is the Stellar 7000 Profile Shallow Casserole made from?

It is crafted from premium 18/10 stainless steel, known for its durability and resistance to corrosion and staining.

Is this casserole suitable for induction hobs?

Yes, the high-conductivity base is designed to work effectively on all hob types, including induction.

What is the oven-safe temperature limit?

The casserole is oven-safe up to 240°C (475°F).

Can I put this casserole in the dishwasher?

Yes, it is dishwasher safe. However, hand washing is recommended to preserve the polished finish over time.

Does it come with a lid?

This model is typically sold without a lid. A separately sold lid designed for Stellar cookware may be available.

What is the warranty for this product?

The Stellar 7000 Profile Shallow Casserole comes with a manufacturer's lifetime guarantee.

What makes the 'shallow' design beneficial?

The shallow depth is ideal for recipes that benefit from more surface area for evaporation and reduction, such as braises, sauces, and some one-pot meals, while still being deep enough to contain ingredients.

Troubleshooting

Uneven cooking or hot spots on the base.

Ensure the heat setting is appropriate for the cooking task. While the base is designed for even heat, extremely high heat on certain elements can still cause localized hot spots. For induction, ensure the pot is centered on the element.

Food sticking to the bottom.

Allow the casserole to preheat properly before adding oil or food. Ensure sufficient cooking fat is used. Stainless steel cooking surfaces often require a bit more attention to heat control compared to non-stick surfaces.

Discoloration of the stainless steel.

This can sometimes occur due to mineral deposits from water or overheating. Try cleaning with a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water, or use a dedicated stainless steel cleaner. Avoid overheating the empty pan.

Handles feel loose.

While rare, if the cast steel handles become loose, contact Stellar customer service for advice or potential repair, as they are typically riveted or welded securely.

  • Lifetime manufacturer's guarantee provides peace of mind.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This casserole is compatible with all standard hob types, including:

  • Electric
  • Gas
  • Ceramic
  • Halogen
  • Induction

It is also oven-safe up to 240°C (475°F).

Care Instructions:

  • Hand Washing Recommended: For best results and to maintain the pristine polished finish, hand wash the casserole with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately.
  • Dishwasher Use: The casserole is dishwasher safe. However, prolonged exposure to harsh detergents in a dishwasher may dull the polished exterior over time. If using a dishwasher, it's advisable to place it on a lower setting and rinse it promptly after the cycle.
  • Cleaning Stubborn Residue: For any stuck-on food, soak the casserole in warm, soapy water for a period. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads or metal utensils that could scratch the surface. A nylon scrubber or a specialized stainless steel cleaner can be used if necessary.
  • Storage: Store in a cupboard or on a shelf where it won't be scratched by other cookware. Consider using pot protectors if stacking.
