Casteline Cristel Multi-Layer Stainless Steel Casserole and Sauté

If you are torn between a sauté pan, a shallow casserole or a roasting pan, with the Casteline Cristel Multi-Layer Stainless Steel Casserole and Sauté, you can have it all in a single utensil! As simple and practical as attaching the handle or the two side handles to cook with whichever piece you need on each occasion. This multi-layer casserole is extremely versatile and with it you will cook all kinds of recipes with great efficiency, both on the hob and in the oven. And from the kitchen to the table to serve them in great style, thanks to its system of removable and interchangeable handle and side handles, which stands out for its safety and ease of use. And when you want to store it, removing the side handles or handle will take up much less space.

Note: The Casteline casserole does not include a handle or side handles. The handle and removable side handles are sold separately; you can find them individually here or as a set of one handle and two side handles here.

The stainless steel casserole and sauté is part of the Casteline collection by Cristel, which integrates two of the brand's most representative technologies: a multi-layer construction with a tri-ply body and high-performance thermodiffusion base, and its renowned system of removable handles and side handles, with a secure and firm anchoring mechanism that provides comfort, flexibility and optimised storage space. Designed by Paul Dodane and crafted from excellent quality materials, the pieces in the collection stand out for their versatility, efficiency and functional design. A range that elevates the cook&serve concept: from hob to table in a single gesture.

The casserole features a multi-layer construction that combines a tri-ply body of 18/10 stainless steel and aluminium with a 5-layer thermodiffusion base. Thanks to this structure, heat is distributed evenly throughout the cookware, generated primarily at the base and transmitted progressively towards the walls. This ensures homogeneous, stable, gentle and efficient cooking, so you can cook with ease and peace of mind, enjoying perfect results.

What is the Casteline Multi-Layer Stainless Steel Casserole and Sauté ideal for

The multi-layer construction of the Casteline shallow casserole, with its tri-ply body and reinforced thermodiffusion base, allows for precise temperature control during cooking and uniform heat diffusion, providing homogeneous cooking. This makes it an excellent option:

• For use as a sauté pan, shallow casserole or roasting pan. Simply change the handle or side handles and you change the utensil!
• For recipes that require gentle and progressive cooking, such as pulse stews.
• For cooking creamy or soupy rice, thanks to its wide base and good depth.
• For browning and sautéing at high temperature, with efficient, quick and crispy results.
• For healthy cooking with little fat, making the most of the excellent heat distribution.
• For confit cooking, both on the hob and in the oven.
• For preparations that require maintaining a constant temperature without sudden changes, such as the béchamel sauce for croquettes.
• For stews and long cooking times, thanks to its excellent heat retention.
• For oven roasting, whether meat, vegetables or fish.
• You can take it from the oven to the table simply by attaching the handle or side handles, keeping the dish warm.
• For optimising storage space, thanks to its system of removable handles and side handles.

Important note: For correct use, it is recommended to heat the casserole gradually before adding oil or food. Avoid using high heat settings, as its multi-layer construction allows for homogeneous heat diffusion. It is recommended not to overheat the cookware and not to use it at maximum power (do not exceed 2/3 of the hob's power setting).
