What makes the WMF Flavour cast iron pan special

Among its many qualities, the cast iron construction of the Flavour pan and its modern, timeless design, in the purest style of traditional French sauté pans, make this pan an essential piece in the kitchen, which stands out for:

• Its excellent heat retention and distribution. Cast iron is a material that absorbs and retains heat beautifully, transferring it evenly throughout the body of the pan. It is a sauté pan ideal for cooking at high temperatures, but without having to use a high setting, thanks to the great efficiency of cast iron. A pan perfect for sautéing, frying, browning, searing, reducing, roasting and cooking. And also for stews and casseroles, dishes that simmer away and need slow cooking over low heat
• Its matt black enamel gives it great elegance and means that no seasoning is needed before use. It is a durable coating, free from artificial non-stick materials. The pan is naturally non-stick and will last you a lifetime. With use and over time, the enamelled surface develops a patina that enhances this natural non-stick effect.
  
• It is suitable for all hobs, including induction. It is also oven safe up to 250 °C. This makes it very practical, as you can start your recipes on the hob and, if needed, finish them in the oven without changing pans.
• Its sauté-style design, with high, straight sidesgives it greater capacity and great versatility. It is not just a 28 cm pan for frying, sautéing, browning or roasting; you also have a shallow 28 cm casserole with a capacity of 3.4 litres, in which you can slow-cook your best recipes. Stewing, braising, sauces and reductions, even brothy rice dishes and risottos. It is also a great baking dish or tray for bread doughs, sponge cakes, sweet and savoury tarts, pizzas and pies. 
  
• Its handcrafted manufacture. The Flavour pan is handmade in Germany. This handcrafted manufacture makes each sauté pan a unique piece, showing the perfect imperfection of utensils made by hand, one by one, which, while perfect, are not exactly identical to each other. Each pan has a unique number indicating its production. 
  
• Its handle and helper handle. With a diameter of 28 cm and being a cast iron piece, it is not a light pan, so the helper handle makes it easier and safer to handle. The handle and helper handle are made of cast iron, so they get hot during cooking, both on the hob and in the oven. Use oven gloves or pot holders when moving it from the hob to the oven or to the table. 
  
• It is sturdy and made to last a lifetime. It comes with a 30-year guarantee on the enamelled surface, both inside and out. To avoid damaging the enamelled surface, always cook with wooden, nylon or heat-resistant silicone utensils. Sharp metal utensils must not be used.
  
• Easy cleaning. The enamelled surface makes washing it by hand very easy and convenient. Being cast iron, it is not dishwasher safe, but it cleans very easily with a soft sponge.

Note: To cook with the Flavour pan, heat it gradually and always with a little oil (it must never be heated empty). Heat it on a medium/low setting, letting the pan warm up evenly all the way through, to make the most of the great heat retention of cast iron and all its efficiency.
