Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sitram Profiserie 3.4-Quart Commercial Stainless Steel Chef's/Evasee Pan

Customer Review: Works great, built to last.
Summary: 4 Stars

This pan works as advertised. The advantages over a similar diameter saute pan are 1)the ease of getting a spatula around the curved bottom when stirring reductions or sauces, and 2)it reduces quicker than a sauce pan or saute pan since the disc bottom is smaller than the top diameter, and a good rolling boil is established for maximum rate of evaporation.

It has a tubular handle that stays cool when used on my electric coil stove elements. I haven't needed to use a pot holder so far. It has no hot spots. It cleans up easily with Barkeepers Friend or in the dishwasher. If you heat it on high while it's empty it it will get some dark spots, (you can scrub them out with Barkeeper's friend) but it hasn't warped.

America's Test Kitchens downrated it in comparison to the (almost 3 times as expensive) All-Clad because the Sitram disc bottom allowed some food to burn at the disc edge where it transitions into the plain stainless steel 'bowl'. I believe their observation, but it has never happened to me when using the pan. I usually reduce the heat to medium-high once I have got the pan hot.

For that reason the sitram gets a 4 star rating. If I were willing to spend $140-150 instead of $50, I might indeed go for the All-Clad or Demeyere 'straight gauge' stainless-aluminum-stainless laminated sauciers, but so far there has been no functional reason to do so.

Description of Sitram Profiserie 3.4-Quart Commercial Stainless Steel Chef's/Evasee Pan

Due to its excellent composition of 18/10 stainless steel and a high-density alloy base, this top-quality, medium-size professional French chef's pan is favored by many commercial kitchens that use induction heat for cooking. When the induction cooktop is turned on, its coils produce a high-frequency alternating magnetic field that causes the molecules in the pan's base to vibrate. As a result, the pan and the food heat up super-fast.

Stainless steel serves as a nonreactive cooking surface, and the stainless-steel handle stays cool longer. This versatile pan is not restricted to induction cooktops--it may be used on more traditional heat sources as well, and is ideal for soups, pasta, and sauces. Welcome to your new favorite pan. --Marcela Broussard
