Saute Pan ZWILLING STAUB BRAISERS Round 28 cm, black, bottom Ø 22.2 cm

The ZWILLING STAUB BRAISERS round sauté pan, 28 cm in diameter with a bottom diameter of 22.2 cm, is a cast-iron cookware piece designed for even heat distribution and slow, controlled cooking. Finished in matt black enamel, the pan is suited to frying, braising and simmering. Its construction retains heat efficiently and requires little added fat for searing and sautéing. The included lid features a Chistera drip structure that returns condensation to the food, supporting moist, flavorful results and nutrient retention.

Advantages

This cast-iron sauté pan provides consistent, uniform heat distribution across the cooking surface and strong heat retention for energy-efficient use. The matt black enamel interior reduces the need for excessive fat while improving browning and flavor development. The Chistera drip-pattern lid promotes self-basting by evenly redistributing condensation back onto the food. The robust single-piece cast construction delivers durability for frequent home use and is suitable for a variety of stovetops.

How to use

Preheat the pan gradually on low to medium heat to avoid thermal shock and to allow the cast iron to distribute heat evenly. Use minimal cooking fat when searing or frying due to the enamel surface. When braising or simmering, cover with the lid so the Chistera drip structure can return condensation to the food and preserve moisture. Avoid rapid temperature changes such as immersing a hot pan in cold water. Clean the pan after use according to manufacturer guidance, typically by rinsing while warm and removing stuck-on food with a non-abrasive tool.

Recommendations

For best results, heat the ZWILLING STAUB BRAISERS pan slowly and maintain medium or lower temperatures for braising and simmering. Use utensils that will not chip the enamel, and dry thoroughly before storage to prevent moisture build-up. Follow specific care instructions for cast-iron enameled cookware to preserve the surface and performance over time.
