ORION Frying pan for oxtail/pancakes 20,5 × 20,5 cm 4 sections cast iron SMALT

The ORION pancake pan is designed for making four pancakes, fried eggs or small potato pancakes at once. It is made of cast iron, which has excellent thermal properties – heat spreads evenly across the entire surface and it retains the accumulated temperature for a long time. This allows you to achieve consistent frying results with a minimal amount of fat. You can use the pan on all types of hobs, including induction, and also for baking in the oven.

Properties of Cast Iron

Cast iron is one of those materials that heats evenly across its entire surface on all heat sources. What's more, it retains the accumulated temperature for a very long time, which helps to save energy. The pan is therefore suitable for both slow cooking at lower temperatures and for searing at high heat. You can use it not only on the hob, but also on the grill or an open fire. When handling, be aware of its heavier weight and always use oven gloves.

Durable Enamel Surface

Both the inner and outer surfaces of the pan are coated with enamel. This material is inert, meaning it does not chemically react with acidic or alkaline foods. As a result, it does not affect the taste or aroma of the food being prepared. The enamelled surface is also scratch-resistant and contributes to the long life of the cookware. Maintenance is easy, and although the pan is dishwasher safe, gentler hand washing is recommended.

Proper Maintenance of the ORION Pan

Proper care is important to maintain the properties of cast iron cookware. Although it is dishwasher safe, the manufacturer recommends hand washing, which is gentler. Key to its care is the top edge of the pan, which does not have a surface finish. This edge should be treated with edible oil to prevent any potential rust from forming. The pan is not suitable for use in a microwave oven. Thanks to the hole in the handle, you can easily hang it up.
