GreenPan Frying Pan Première Pro ø 20 cm - without non-stick coating

Forget that pale, watery steak simmering in its own juices in a pan that's too cool: with the GreenPan Première Pro frying pan ø 20 cm, you can achieve that crispy, deep golden crust that you usually only get on your plate in a restaurant. No coating, no compromise - just pure, honest heat that builds flavour. This is the pan for those who understand that the difference between good and great food starts with the right tools.

Why This Pan Will Change Your Cooking Style

An uncoated stainless steel pan is the secret weapon of every serious home cook. You can heat it up high, use metal utensils without worry, and create those delicious caramelised bits - the fond - that form the base of every rich gravy or sauce. The GreenPan Première Pro works with your cooking technique rather than limiting it. This is no coincidence: this is a pan built for those who know what they want to achieve in the kitchen.

• Restaurant Results at Home - The uncoated stainless steel cooking surface sears meat at a professional level, resulting in that perfect, crispy crust.
• Five Layers for Ultimate Heat Distribution - Two outer layers of stainless steel with three layers of aluminium in between: the base and walls heat evenly all the way to the edge.
• Metal Utensils? No Problem - No coating to protect, so feel free to use your metal spatula, tongs, or whisk. No fuss, no guilt.
• From Hob to Oven - Oven safe up to 220 °C, so you can sear a steak on the hob and then let it cook gently in the oven.
• Works on Any Heat Source - Gas, electric, ceramic, halogen, and induction: this pan fits on any hob.
• Evershine Technology - The specially finished exterior prevents discolouration and keeps the pan looking shiny, even after dozens of cooking sessions.
• PFAS-Free - No coating also means no worries about harmful substances. Cook without coating, without compromising your health.
• Dishwasher Safe - Convenient for when you need it done quickly, although the pan lasts longer with hand washing.

The Power of Five Layers: How It Works in Practice

Three layers of aluminium between two layers of stainless steel - that sounds technical, but you'll taste the difference immediately. Aluminium conducts heat quickly and evenly, preventing cold or hot spots on the base. Stainless steel on the outside makes the pan strong, induction compatible, and resistant to the daily grind in the kitchen.

The clever part is also in the responsiveness: turn down the heat, and the pan adjusts immediately. Turn it up? The heat spreads evenly right away. That gives you the control you need to act at just the right moment - because when preparing a perfect steak or caramelised vegetables, every second counts.

The compact 20 cm diameter is the sweet spot for one or two-person portions: the ideal pan for a quick omelette, a fried salmon fillet, a handful of crispy new potatoes, or that one steak you keep all to yourself. Small in size, big in results.

Building Flavour: The Art of the Fond

In a non-stick pan, everything slides off easily - handy, but you miss out on the fond: the caramelised bits left behind after cooking. With a splash of wine or broth, you can effortlessly deglaze and have a rich, full gravy in no time that puts any jarred sauce to shame. Suddenly, your kitchen smells like a bistro on a Saturday night - and that's exactly the point.

This isn't a chef's trick for those cooking with Michelin stars in mind: it's just what happens when you put an uncoated pan on high heat and let it do its job. The GreenPan Première Pro is built for that moment - the moment you know it's going to taste great even before you take the first bite.

No Non-Stick Coating: Here's How to Handle It Smartly

To be honest: an uncoated stainless steel pan requires a bit more technique than a regular frying pan. But the good news? That technique is easy to learn, and once you get the hang of it, you'll never want to go back.

💡 Cookinglife Tip: Always preheat the pan over medium heat before adding anything. Then do the water droplet test: drop a droplet of water into the pan. If it forms into a rolling pearl that dances smoothly across the bottom, the pan is at the right temperature. Only then add a splash of oil or a knob of butter and place your ingredients in the pan. This way, nothing sticks, you build the best crust, and you cook like a pro - every time.

Maintenance: How to Keep This Pan Beautiful for Years

• Dishwasher Safe - Can go in, but hand washing keeps the shiny stainless steel surface perfect for longer.
• Stuck-On Residue? - Let the pan soak in warm water with some dish soap. No aggressive scrubbing needed.
• Discolouration - Can sometimes occur at high heat, but easily disappears with a special stainless steel cleaner or a splash of vinegar.
• Always Preheat - Only add oil or butter when the pan is warm. This way, you cook optimally and keep maintenance minimal.
• Use an Oven Mitt - The pan and handle get hot when used in the oven. Always grab a cloth - that's the only compromise this pan asks of you.
