18/10 Stainless Steel Saucepan with Lid (4 sizes available)

18/10 Stainless Steel is a high-grade metal alloy made of 18% chromium and 10% nickel. Chromium is strong and rust-proof and nickel provides extra protection against corrosion and adds a lasting shine.

• Rust-Proof: Extremely resistant to corrosion from salt, water, and high-acid foods
• Non-Magnetic: Nickel is non-magnetic, and as a result so is this material
• Long Lasting: With basic care, cookware made from 18/10 Stainless Steel remains rust-free and shiny for a lifetime
• Easy to Clean and Maintain: Dishwasher safe AND easy to wash by hand due to the smooth, strong, durable, and non-porous surface that prevents food from sticking.

All stainless steel cookware is dishwasher safe, rust-proof, and safe for both induction and gas stovetops. You may also wash it by hand.

Regular gentle polishing of stainless steel in the direction of the gain with a soft cloth such as cotton will help your pots and pans stay shiny, but even without polishing the surface will remain tough and durable for a lifetime of delicious meals.

Wooden handles should be washed by hand if possible, but beech and olive wooden handles are dishwasher safe. Walnut wooden handles are NOT dishwasher safe and also should not be used in the broiler, microwave, etc. Regular polishing and oiling of wooden handles is recommended.

CRISTEL® designed the Strate®Detachable handle system to be easy to use, clean, and put away. The Strate®Detachable handle system fits all kitchen sizes and will be a valuable ally for all your culinary preparations.

The thermo-diffuser base of the pots and pans in this system heat quickly on gas, electric, and induction stoves. The practical detachable handle system makes it possible to transform your stainless steel vessel into a serving dish by replacing the long handle with short handles.

Using The Detachable Handles

Detachable handles are designed to be used during the cooking process when maneuvering cookware from stovetop to oven or oven to table. For safety, the handles shouldn’t be left on while cooking. While heat-resistant, prolonged exposure can negatively impact the detaching mechanism over time.

Detachable Handles Sold Separately

 If handles were sold with every individual pan or pot, it would ultimately decrease the efficiency of this system. We encourage you to buy one handle separately, and order additional handles later on if you find you need more to run your personal kitchen. Thank you for your understanding!
