There are several reasons to choose a stainless steel sauté pan for daily cooking. The large cooking surface and high sides are perfect for stews and other one-pot dishes, while the quick and even heat distribution makes the pan ideal for searing, sweating, and caramelizing ingredients. The surface is resistant to the acids found in the ingredients, making it easy to maintain the pan's shine. The sauté pan is compatible with all heat sources and is dishwasher safe.
