De Buyer Affinity 5-ply Stainless Steel Frying Pan

With the De Buyer Affinity stainless steel frying pan, you can wear the hat of a professional chef. And rightly so: it is one of the highest-end frying pans on the market, and its qualities will give you fabulous control over your recipes. Moreover,

you can be sure that no non-stick substances or added chemicals enter your kitchen.

Unlike other stainless steel frying pans, the Affinity series from De Buyer consists of 5 layers of stainless steel and aluminum in both the base and the walls of the frying pan. Thanks to this, you not only get a magnificent heat distribution across the entire surface (not just at the base, but also at the sides, allowing you to save time and achieve much better results), but additionally, those 5 layers of steel and their density also provide you with optimal temperature control: you will see how cooking responds quickly when you increase or decrease the heat (when you lower the heat, the pan quickly reduces the temperature across its entire surface, and likewise when you raise the temperature).

Thus, the Affinity series absorbs and distributes heat magnificently thanks to its multilayer technology, resulting in uniform and effective cooking of food.

It goes without saying that it is an aesthetically beautiful frying pan, featuring a cast stainless steel handle with elegant French curvature and a heat stop, so you can cook with it safely and comfortably.

It is suitable for all types of heat sources, including induction, and is also oven-safe.
